We are thinking about going to Galapagos and Peru with our three boys aged 8, 14, & 15. Which cruise lines do you recommend? Is there anything special that we should do?
Should we spend more than a night in Lima?
Galapagos for Children?

Oops... it is too late. I meant to say Quito! We are planning on going to Peru as well on this trip...
Depends on your budget. You will need a double and a triple, the triple cabins are few on most ships so you need to look at booking way out. I work with only the top operators in Galapagos best suppliers are LIndblad Expeditions/National Geographic, International Expedtions, Celebrity Xpeditions, GExpeditions on their new ship. These are all first class operators and the top of budgets. Quito is lovely, a new airport is opening in Febuary which will be about 1 1/2 hours from the center of the city, the present airport is 10 minutes. Lovely things to do around and outside of Quito, note the altitude. Note not all operators use Quito as the jumping off point. Linda - sunstonetours
I have read about the Lindblad cruise and it sounds excellent. Does it have any special activities for children or would children be a rarity? How about Celebrity's?
Anything special that we should do?
