I grew up learning to love these islands
I was raised on San Cristóbal, the capital of Galápagos. I got here at six months old — my dad moved to the islands for work, and we stayed.
Just about my whole life has revolved around Galápagos since then: living alongside the wildlife, learning its different ecosystems, and understanding early on how much a place like this needs protecting.
I always wanted to show these islands
I always wanted to show Galápagos to the world — not just the landscapes and the animals, but what it actually means to spend time in one of the most remarkable corners of the planet.
Zayapa is my chance to do it in a way that's a little different, and a lot more fun.
What I want Zayapa to do for you
I want to help you find the islands for yourself, log the species you come across, and keep everything you need to plan your trip in one place.
Because visiting Galápagos doesn't have to mean buying an expensive package, or giving up the freedom to decide what to see and how to see it.
Zayapa is here to help you travel better: look after your budget, make the most of your days, find more places and spot more species, while respecting the place that takes you in.
I want to show you the corner of the world where I grew up the way I'd show it to a friend.
