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.

Amazing trip
Loved every minute of our trip, really enjoyed the wildlife in both sea and land... My favourite had to be swimming in the ocean and being joined by curious/playful sea lions.

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!

An exceptional experience
We were really lucky and saw everything you could ask for! The guide simply knew everything about animals and plants. He also brought in a lot of his own experiences. We were always welcomed with delicious snacks and drinks. The rooms were very clean and always well maintained. There was a family environment. The average age of the guests was well mixed. I would go back on board at any time.

Superb and once in a lifetime trip
The NW route (A route) brings you to the newest volcano land and is also very remote and quiet. The undisturbed wildlife is everywhere and easy to observe. The Archipel crew is very professional and friendly, for example after each snorkeling Orio was there with refreshments or tea.
