About Columbus Travel Agency - Ecuador

Columbus Travel Agency - Ecuador?
I know this is a long shot... but has anyone heard of "Columbus Travel" based in Ecuador? We are considering using them for our trip to the Galapagos, but I don't know much about them, and neither has anyone else that I know. Also, they don't take credit cards, which bothers me a bit. Any help would be appreciated. Here is their website: http://www.galapagosisland.net/index.html Thanks!

I can't help you with Columbus Travel, but I can offer an alternative. You might want to check into a company called Metropolitan Touring. They are a large (perhaps the largest?) travel agency based in ecuador with offices in many cities. They offer several prebuilt package trips to Galapagos and also operate a private charter boat that travels to the islands. They are a full service agency, with access to the sabre ticketing system. They accept all major credit cards including AMEX and Diners. I have no personal association with them, but have used them many, many times for my travel to Costa Rica, Colombia and Brazil in addition to throughout Ecuador. I highly recommend them. I am not certain of their website but with a brief search you should be able to locate it. Metropolitan Touring
