Truly a perfect liveaboard experience
This was the best liveaboard experience that I could have asked for. The dive guides, Richard and Lenin, were fantastic. They made sure we were safe, comfortable, and had the best experience possible. They handled everyone's specific circumstances gracefully, and still had bandwidth to show us all the incredible marine life while getting videos on every dive. True professionals. Regarding the boat staff, Ruben and the team do everything possible to help you have a great experience. Handling the scuba gear, keeping the boat clean and well-stocked, and of course great food at every meal. The boat itself was in really good shape with ample areas to relax between dives. We had nearly a full boat and never felt crowded at all. And of course, Galápagos diving... can't beat it. Highly recommend!

This trip was awesome.
Watching the awesome pelagic schools at Darwin and Wolf Islands; diving with sea lions, marine iguanas, massive schools of fish (many varieties); viewing a great variety of rays, in abundant quantities; seeing a Mola-Mola twice! at its cleaning station; seeing penguins, flightless cormorants, blue-footed boobies, large pelicans, various frigates; seeing THREE Mola-Mola's swimming by our boat; seeing several manta rays jumping completely out of the water!; having sea lions "buzz" us several times playfully and acrobatically swimming around when we least expect it.

Great attention was paid to hygiene and cleanliness, and I felt very comfortable. The diving was endless fun, the guides were very eager to respond to individual needs, and I always felt safe. From start to finish a really successful trip, from which I go home with wonderful memories.

A must for every diving bucket list.
We saw all the typical animals you except to see when diving in the Galapagos - hammerheads, mantas, and marine iguanas. But we were absolutely thrilled to have had the chance to dive with penguins, several whale sharks, and orcas. We went over Christmas and it was the best Christmas ever! Loved the trip. Would definitely recommend it.

Rough Seas but beautiful encounters
The trip was completely smoothly and was well-structured from start to finish. Despite the challenges that the occasionally heavy seas posed for my motion sickness, I was exceptionally well cared for throughout the tour. Being a vegetarian, I never had to miss out on anything, as something special and extra was freshly prepared for me every single day. Underwater, we were rewarded with an incredible abundance of amazing wildlife: while Darwin Island was unfortunately quite quiet—likely due to El Niño—Wolf Island more than made up for it with spectacular encounters. Amazing dive Trip with two really good dive guides, Richard and Lenin, for sure!! Thank you!

Would not hesitate to rebook on this vessel - had an excellent trip with a great crew and facilities
A last minute booking after another boat booking fell through and we were not sure what to expect. However, very happy with the outcome. From the moment we were picked up through to departure, the Aggressor team were flawless in their execution and attention to detail. The boat is extremely comfortable and well set up, with plenty of spaces to relax in outside of your cabin. Diving was very varied and the itinerary well structured. Food was so plentiful - in fact almost too much - and in contrast with some boats, a wonderful range of food as well as drinks. The trip was helped by having a group of divers who all got on well with each other but that takes nothing away from the Aggressor team and organisation. We came away with nothing but praise for our weeks trip.

Very good liveaboard despite difficult conditions
We were on a liveaboard in the Galápagos Islands in September 2026 and overall very satisfied with the trip. However, our expectations were correspondingly high, especially because we had looked at many sightings from previous years at the same time of year in advance. Unfortunately, we had to deal with a strong El Niño this year. As a result, the water temperature of about 26 to 29 degrees was well above the usual 18 to 22 degrees for this time of year. The crew therefore adjusted the route at short notice and chose the so-called summer route, which is usually driven from January to May. Since we didn't know the alternative, of course, we can't judge whether the route was actually better. But this gave us the opportunity to snorkel with penguins, among other things, which was definitely a special experience. Unfortunately, the visibility was rather disappointing at most dive sites with only about 15 meters in some cases. Only at Darwin and Wolf we had much better conditions with up to about 30 meters. The expected large schools of hammerhead sharks also failed to materialize due to the conditions. At Darwin we could see about 25 hammerhead sharks, at Wolf about 8. In addition, there were always individual hammerhead sharks, some of which passed very close to us. We also had dolphins, various shark species, turtles, manta rays, eagle rays, golden rays and many other animals. Of course, we had hoped to experience the famous hammerhead shark wall and maybe even see whale sharks or orcas. After all, these were also sightings that had taken place at the same time in previous years. Nevertheless, you always have to keep in mind on such a trip that nature and animal observations cannot be planned. I would like to highlight the crew in a particularly positive way. Our two dive guides Lenin and Walter were really great. Before each dive there was a detailed briefing and we were divided into two groups of eight divers each. Walter is also an incredibly funny guy and has a lot of expertise, not only under water, but also about the Galápagos Islands in general. This enriched the trip even more. The ship, the cabin, the food and the entire organization also get 5 out of 5 points from us. Transfers and procedures were always punctual and professionally organized despite the many additional challenges. Unfortunately, we also had a medical emergency on board and therefore had to go back to Puerto Ayora after Wolf. As a result, the last two days were completely different than originally planned. Fortunately, we had two doctors among the divers with us, who did a really good job together with the crew. Even after the necessary change of plans, the crew tried to make the best possible dives possible for us. The only major point of criticism for me is the price. The safari is not exceptionally expensive compared to other Galápagos providers, but compared to a liveaboard in the Maldives, for example, it is significantly more expensive. If part of these additional costs actually benefit the protection of the underwater world and the Galápagos Islands, that would at least be understandable to me. However, I cannot judge whether this is actually the case. Despite the exceptional conditions caused by El Niño and the unplanned interruption due to the medical emergency, we would definitely choose the provider again. The restrictions were largely beyond the control of the crew. Especially under these conditions, the crew did a very good job from our point of view.

Would highly recommend
We had an amazing trip thanks to the awesome crew and unique location. Highlights from diving include seeing a whale shark, countless hammerhead, Galapagos, and silky sharks, gorgeous coral reefs, and a litany of other unique, endemic wildlife. What made this trip possible and enjoyable was a top notch crew. The guides provided good briefings for each dive site and great guidance underwater. Despite a challenging dive environment, safety was never a concern. The panga (chase boat) drivers were the best we've ever seen. The stewards and cooks saw to our every desires before we could even think of them. The boat was kept very clean. We were impressed by the crew's overall teamwork and friendliness.
