Amazing Experience
Went on a cruise with the Natural Paradise from Nov 12 to 19; amazing! Never been to the Galapagos before, but I traveled a lot throughout Africa, South- and Middle-America, Asia and more; there is no place like Galapagos on earth! The best way to enjoy the beauty of the islands and the animals is by cruise; and Natural Paradise knows exactly how to do this. Every day again, the crew was giving 200% to offer excellent (in-between activity) snacks, meals (buffets), your cabin would normally be cleaned multiple times a day (everytime you go on an activity). They make you feel like a king. The naturalist guide Gustavo was very good as well. I would highly recommend the Natural Paradise!

Wonderful trip!
We love the trip; even when we got seasick, the crew members were very helpful. It was amazing to see the extraordinary animals that live in Galapagos (both in land and in the sea). Our guide knew many interesting facts. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

Once in a lifetime trip that exceeded expectations
A fantastic trip where we swam with eagle rays, sharks, turtles and sea lions and saw penguins, friget mating rituals, flamingos and as many iguanas as you could hope to see up close and personal. We also walked to several breathtaking viewpoints of the various islands we visited. And the boat was fantastic - spotless, spacious and friendly with excellent food available. The Galapagos isn't a cheap option but if you love nature, it will be the experience of a lifetime.

This is a working vacation for those wanting a busy but flexible schedule for seeing all that the Galapagos offers.
Lots of baby and nesting birds. Swimming with sea lions. Mating turtles. Tons of fish and sharks/rays when snorkeling. I saw all of the species i had hoped to see.

I loved everything! You can go without fear! The room is spectacular. Those who tend to get sick have medication and appropriate bracelets. I was very well cared for and well received.
