An amazing experience
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.

Most amazing time ever!!!
We had the most amazing week with @galaxy_diver_liveaboard for this 8D/7N liveaboard experience, booked via @diving.liveaboard The naturalist liveaboard tours the islands to see the wildlife, including lots of land excursions and snorkeling activities 🤿 We left from Baltra and covered the west part of the islands to end back in Nord Seymour. It was the most amazing experience: we’ve seen so many animals and had incredibly beautiful encounters with them under water; we learned a lot about the islands and its wildlife thanks to our incredible guide Renny; we met lovely people on board and had the best food thanks to the amazing Galaxy Divers crew.This was the experience of a lifetime and we’d recommend any nature and animal lover to join such a liveaboard 😍

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!
