Amazing food, activities & crew during our first Liveaboard
We had an excellent experience during our first liveaboard. The food was much better and fancy than we expected. Besides, the activities, including panga rides, snorkeling and land excursions were great. Lastly, the crew was always very kind and helpful.

This was one of the best tours I have done in my life. The whole package was complete and the highlight was swimming and snorkelling with the turtles, although all the animals were fabulous.

The boat crew and guide made our experience that much more amazing
The fact that we had such fast paced itinerary to see as much as possible was the best thing of all. All the activities were fun and interesting, with the exception of paddle boarding which we were promised and the boat didn’t have them

A fantastic trip to check off many bucket list items
Very organized and I loved the size of the boat, perfect amount of people…the food was fantastic and all the activities were well planned…loved both the hiking and the snorkelling and especially liked that you returned to the boat between most activities so if you wanted, you didn’t have to participate in everything…worked well for some of the older guests. Overall, had a fabulous time, learned lots, saw more and fulfilled many lifetime dreams….shoutout to our guide Fabricio and to Johnny….they were fabulous

Best week of our life
We had a really amazing week aboard the Galaxy. The diving was the best of our life, it is really fantastic to see a sea so full of life. We so thousands of hammerheads, humpback whales, orcas, mola mola, Marine iguana and many other. But not only the diving is good, the crew is really friendly and you can feel that there are good vibes in the boat.

We loved this trip!
A trip that we’ve dreamt of for many years! Our experience was excellent. For a small boat, the Orion was quite comfortable and our crew was great. We had a very knowledgeable and entertaining naturalist, Fabricio. All were patient and helpful with us. We could visit many different locations for snorkeling and / or hiking, letting us see a wide range of flora and fauna. Each day was packed with information and activity. We loved it! Thanks Orion and crew!
