What do we say?
Geovanny's Hacienda Tranquila are the winners of the Nat Geo Geotourism Challenge 2010 muchbetteradventures.com award. We love their approach to sustainability on the Galapagos and see them as thoroughly deserving winners. Not only can you get involved in significant environmental and social projects during your stay, it is a unique opportunity to make the most of the incredible surfing and horse riding available in the region. Nice!
