Great experience
We had many activities, entertaining and beautiful. Yes we would recommend to our friends, but it is important to mention that it is not 5 days, because the last one, hopefully is 2 hours and it is only 1 activity, being that on the same route there are 2 more points that in all tours are done together (El Junco and Puerto Chino)
- Recommended for
- The service and attention of the crew. After each activity we were greeted with drinks and snacks. Activities in general.

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!

The best way to see these islands - with a great guide, a well equipped boat, unbelievable wildlife and wild islands.
Jorge was so knowledgeable and experienced. It was wonderful to have him as a guide. The rest of the crew worked so hard to make sure we were looked after. The meals were first class and reflective of local dishes. Each island was unique with its own environment and wildlife. The daily visits were full-on but worth it not to waste a moment. The trip was full of magic moments, like going back to a time before man overpopulated our planet. What a privilege to go there!

- The variety of islands and animals we saw. Great guide (Jorge) and crew. Magic place that the Galapagos is.
