This cruise was phenomenal!
There were so many spectacular moments! Snorkeling with the sea lions was at the top of a very long list of memorable moments. The food on the ship was incredible but the most surprising aspect of all was the friendliness of the crew - without exception! Our guide had to be the most knowledgeable of any guide we’ve had.

Excellent trip from Start to Finish
Excellent, actually exceeded expectations. Food was great and plenty of variation. Cocktails very good! We stayed in the Galápagos afterwards, crew delivered our bags to shore a bit later on our departure morning so we could enjoy the morning in town without worrying about luggage. storage. Thank you!

Exceeded all expectations!
The crew has perfectly organized all the processes in the background. We have seen the most beautiful places in Galapagos. The luxury and food on board spoiled us. The cabins are spacious, with balconies and huge comfortable beds. The crew was very accommodating and friendly, we enjoyed and felt very comfortable! The program was balanced between snorkeling, land trips, boat trips and free time. A perfect holiday!

A Perfect Getaway!
Fantastic trip. Hiking with a tremendous guide everyday (usually twice a day - morning and afternoon). Snorkeling in beautiful, clear, sea-life-filled waters (watching a sealion chase two sharks out of a cove was the highlight). Three incredible meals each day - everything fresh and delicious. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful - always going the extra step (hot chocolate awaiting us after snorkeling was a great treat). The boat is beautiful and comfortable - small, but big enough. My fellow travelers were a delightful bunch - engaging, smart, funny and helpful. This was the perfect get away!
