It's a comparatively good value in the Galapagos
We loved the choices in where we went and that the captain changed our timing of the a crossing from one island to another so that we could enjoy the whales and the super-pod of dolphins. All Galapagos trips are expensive - it is the nature of "the nature" there. This cruise fit the bill for the ability to see many islands in-depth.
