Most amazing time ever!!!
We had the most amazing week with @galaxy_diver_liveaboard for this 8D/7N liveaboard experience, booked via @diving.liveaboard The naturalist liveaboard tours the islands to see the wildlife, including lots of land excursions and snorkeling activities 🤿 We left from Baltra and covered the west part of the islands to end back in Nord Seymour. It was the most amazing experience: we’ve seen so many animals and had incredibly beautiful encounters with them under water; we learned a lot about the islands and its wildlife thanks to our incredible guide Renny; we met lovely people on board and had the best food thanks to the amazing Galaxy Divers crew.This was the experience of a lifetime and we’d recommend any nature and animal lover to join such a liveaboard 😍

Best week of our life
We had a really amazing week aboard the Galaxy. The diving was the best of our life, it is really fantastic to see a sea so full of life. We so thousands of hammerheads, humpback whales, orcas, mola mola, Marine iguana and many other. But not only the diving is good, the crew is really friendly and you can feel that there are good vibes in the boat.

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!

Galapagos Orion Out Of This Galaxy
The daily schedule maximized our time and enabled us to experience as much as the Galapagos as possible during our stay while also being pampered before and after each excursion.
