Lifetime Trip (video): Galapagos on the Humboldt Explorer.

[swiss_diver]

Hi everyone

Finally managed to edit my footage of the last trip which I wanted to share with the community. Below you'll find some information from my blog (endgame diving).
I'd really like some feedback as I'm trying to get better and/or gladly answer any questions you might have. Hope it's ok that I also included the land part from Peru and some cenotes action in Mexico :cool2:

This is the "best-of" of five weeks travelling South and Central America in 2014, admiring the cultural and natural beauty of Peru, diving Darwin's Arch and Wolf in Galapagos as well as exploring five cenotes on the Yucatan Island in Mexico. Highlights in this video include Machu Picchu (Lares Trek), diving in Galapagos (Humboldt Explorer), visiting the maya ruin "Cobá" and diving the following cenotes: El Pit, Ponderosa, Dos Ojos, Gran Cenote and Angelita. Travelled Oct / Nov 2014.

Underwater highlights include whale shark (pregnant female), giant hammerhead, seals, sea turtles mating, golden rays, giant galapagos tortoises, sally lightfoot crab and the rare marine iguana eating algae.

Just fyi...the link provided for the Humboldt above is not the official link to the Humboldt Explorer, but is an agent who bought the name early on and it seems they cannot be stopped from using it. Many mistakenly assume it's the Humboldt's website...along with HumboldtExplorer.net ...but neither are official Humboldt Explorer sites.
