Galapagos Trip Planner MCP

Galapagos trip planning tools for AI assistants: what the whole trip costs, cruise or island hopping, a day-by-day itinerary, inter-island ferry times with a seasickness meter, weather and wildlife by month, where to see each animal, the park fee and entry rules, visitor sites and the weather right now. Same numbers as the planning tools on galapagosislands.info, an independent Galapagos guide.
