What an amazing experience
This trip was a once in a lifetime trip, especially as it was a 50th birthday gift to myself. What made this trip amazing was, the crew - they were all so friendly, helpful and attentive. Nothing and i mean nothing was too much trouble. I can see they really enjoy what they do. Our guide was truly special, he made sure we all had a good time and were able to take part in every activity outlined. I liked that he often sat with us all at meal times, made it feel like he was also one of us. The other guest were also great, we all got on very well. There was a good balance of partaking in excursions/activities and time to relax. The cabins are a little small, however if you have a cabin to yourself its much better. Initially i was paired with another guest, however the manager contacted the company to ask if one of us could move as there was a spare cabin. I thought that was very accomodating of him. The highlights, so many but one evening we had sharks circulating by our boat the skipper kindly put some lights on so we could see them a little better. The boat is lovely and has everything you need, with little touches like chocolates on your pillow. The food was A..MA..ZING! The chef....wow wow wow. As it was my birthday, they made me a little cake, which i thought was very lovely and a nice personal touch. Overall, would I do this again, yes I would, would I recommend it, yes I would.

First class cruise thanks to the friendly and professional crew with a very well organized program to spend five wonderful days in contact with nature.
We were very lucky to enjoy a comfortable boat with a very professional crew who looked after us wonderfully. The food was delicious and very fresh. The tours are very well planned to learn about the nature of the Galapagos Islands. It was actually a unique experience that we will always remember.

Amazing experience for family with kids and grandparents.
I have been on a number of cruises of different sizes and I have to say that this was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. The boat is on the small side with 16 passengers max. But it does not feel cramped in any way. There’s a nice size dining room where they put out a buffet three times a day that is excellent. There’s an espresso coffee and tea machine available 24 hours. A comfortable living room inside where you could sit and read or have a drink from the bar. And a top deck that is perfect for reading or watching the sunset. The food was really delicious, especially given that we were at sea. The activities were packed in that you do usually four a day - walk, snorkel, walk, kayak, etc. after the first activity in the morning and the first activity of the afternoon, you come back to a warm, homemade snack and cold drink. Alex was our guide and he was absolutely incredible. I felt like the places we went and the wildlife we were able to see from so close you could not believe it were out of this world. They made an effort to have us see extra things - like they offered a 6am snorkel one day because that’s when the hammered sharks are around and we saw them - just amazing. We were a family of four with two kids ages nine and 13. We saw almost no other children while we were touring in any other group or even in the towns. But the guides were wonderful about keeping them engaged and including them and we also had a 78 year-old grandmother on the same tour and they were equally amazing with her. I looked at a lot of different ships and I think that the itinerary and quality here for the price is unmatched. Highly recommend.

Planned perfectly
We loved this trip. Every day we snorkeled, went on a tender ride to explore the coastline, and went on a hike/walk to explore the land. The days were perfectly planned. There were snacks after every activity and the crew was super vigilant about safety and keeping us informed.

Lovely, friendly Galaxy crew in an unparalleled destination. We certainly stayed busy and after each activity we were treated to a freshly made treat. The three meals a day were so delicious and special
