A wonderful experience
It's a trip that exceeded all our expectations. The Galapagos Legend Cruise made us feel extra special at all times. From the reception at the airport, everything is perfectly planned and everyone is very concerned about taking care of the passengers. The crew and naturalist guides are very friendly, considerate and kind. The cabins are perfect, very comfortable beds and ample spaces, accompanied by beautiful views. The bathroom has everything you need, the temperature and water pressure are fantastic. The facilities of the cruise are top notch, it has: swimming pool, jacuzzi, gym, library, conference room, snorkeling equipment, 2 bars and 2 restaurants, spa, doctor on board, reception, a small gift shop, 24 hour coffee bar, and clothes dryer (much needed). All meals and drinks are excellent, preparations to be enjoyed to the fullest. The guided tours are amazing, I totally recommend snorkeling whenever possible. Our eternal gratitude to all the staff on board.

Big, fast, comfortable ship
The Legend is a fast ship, so you can get to multiple locations in one day. They have everything organized well to maximize your time off the ship and hiking on islands or snorkeling. We took the 'West' itinerary and saw huge diversity of animals both on land and in the ocean - 100's of iguanas sunning themselves, 100's of sea lions swimming among the group, land and sea turtles, penguins, boobies, flamingos, sharks, rays, countless birds and fish.

Wow!
The ship is beautiful and fully equipped. Super helpful and nice staff. It was a busy schedule of excursions, but every time we saw new beautiful animals. The guides are friendly and very professional in their job. Highly recommended and we will definitely make the north side of this cruise. It was well worth the money.
