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.

Absoluetly beautiful! Couldnt have gone any better!
Absolutely amazing experience! I loved how the day was kept busy with many activities throughout the day at so many different places. Truly one of the most amazing cruises. The crew was amazing and the food was spectacular. The chefs made everything to perfection with many buffets and desserts after lunch and dinner was definitely a win! Such an amazing experience and definitely worth the money. Wouldn't have wanted to visit the Galapagos any other way! Thank you!

Great organized cruise on the boat and in the water
the vast amount of sharks and other marine life we experienced. The crew made us feel very comfortable and organized the dives to the T.

We got a fantastic experience from the crew and felt very welcome!
From start to finish a very hospitable and motivated team (which really came across as a team) that gave you a very welcome feeling, a small drink and/or snack after every activity. A full program with many activities. We had a 4 night cruise so it is very nice to experience a lot. Guide was very good and enthusiastic. Food and drink was excellent. My wife is vegetarian and there was certainly enough attention for that, although the vegetarian dishes could sometimes be a little more original (although we understand that on a ship with small occupancy the possibilities are limited). What also surprised us was that our fellow passengers were usually on the same page: mainly going for the nature experience and little fuss. All very nice, down-to-earth people!
