Everything
The diving was incredible in the Galápagos. Whale sharks, hammerheads, white tip, black tip, Galapagos sharks, silky sharks, turtles, seahorses, rays and much more! The crew was wonderful and very helpful. They put on a little show for us at one point which was so fun. I don’t want to give the details as I want it to be a surprise for future guests. It was an unforgettable experience and I would totally recommend it.

Wonderful cruise with top staff
The crew have done their utmost to make us feel at home on board. We saw a lot of pelagics during the cruise, a warm towel and delicious snacks, sometimes hot chocolate, were waiting for us after each dive. The staff even rinsed and shampooed all our gear at the end of our stay. A real treat!
