Archipel 1 was a fun, well organized and genuine experience of the natural beauty of the Galápagos.
Tagus Cove was wonderful - great hike, penguins and cormorants, great snorkel Also across at Fernandina. We saw something new each day, and got a great exposure to the variety of landscapes and wildlife - from Isabella, Fernandina, Santiago and Rabida.

Fantastic short cruise experience
We swam with sea lions, we snorkeled to see white tip sharks and a variety of star fish, we kayaked with sea turtles, and saw countless birds up close. The food was amazing and the chef goes above and beyond to accommodate diets. The guide is always very knowledgeable and friendly.

The guide was very professional, spoke perfect English. Numerous trips were a real experience. Accommodation on the boat was comfortable, the only minus was the noise in the cabin

Memories that will last a LIFETIME
The trip was truly spectacular and words couldn’t do it justice. You have to live it to believe the experience and I’m so happy we chose the Archipell 1. We felt safe and comfortable the entire time and everyday was something special. The food on board, the islands selected, and the crew were always willing to go the extra mile to make sure our trip was perfect from start to finish. Thanks so much for the unbelievable experience!
