Definitely recommend
All crew were safe, professional and friendly. Systems and processes are smooth to allow for safe and comfortable diving in a place with an abundance of animal life. Great food and well managed expectations (my high hopes were well met).

Great experience
We had a great experience on the Galaxy Diver II. The crew is great. Very friendly, professional, well attuned to each other and do everything we can to make the trip as good as possible. The food was amazing. More than enough, after every dive fresh fruit and a local snack and breakfast/lunch/dinner really delicious and varied. We even got a ceviche workshop from the chef. The dives were great and the guides very good. The rooms were cleaned every day and the boat always looked neat.

Paradise above and below water
I don’t have words to describe my visit trip on the liveaboard galaxy 2 in the Galapagos. The boat was like a luxury hotel on water! The food, insanely good! Blows my mind how they can prepare such delicious, beautifully presented meals on board, and everything so fresh even after days at sea! Every day I woke up/went to sleep I couldn’t believe I was there, experiencing the best dives of my life, on this luxury boat with the most knowledgeable, friendly crew and guides. I’d do it all again in a heart beat! Huge shout outs to all the crew, but especially William who has guided these waters for 25 years! His love for the area is contagious, as if his singing and dancing to music whilst getting our gear on ready to dive. Carlos- amazingly knowledgable and friendly guide, both wanting us to have the best experience we could! And of course Jimmy- the barman/ head waiter/ jack of all trades! Instantly remembers everyone’s names and treats us like family. No job is too big for this man!

With top-notch facilities, professional dive guides, delicious meals and meticulous service from the crew, it's definitely worth choosing again!
I had prepared a long time in advance for this Galapagos liveaboard trip, and the Galaxy Diver2 completely exceeded my expectations! From the moment they boarded, every crew member – including the captain, dive guide, chef and even the logistics staff – showed meticulous service and made the entire journey feel warm. Every day is full of surprises, and every dive is unforgettable. The facilities on board are top-notch, and the clean and comfortable environment is reassuring, especially the purification of the toiletry water is in place (which is rare in this archipelago!). ）。 The diving team is not only skilled, but also vividly explains the unique geography and ecology of the Galapagos, making every time you go into the water, it feels like exploring a nature documentary. Even more surprising is the onboard food and 24-hour coffee service (their two professional coffee machines are definitely a commendation!). ）。 What touched me the most was the intention of the whole team - whether it was the captain's careful adjustment of the route to avoid wind and waves, or the hot towels handed over by the crew at any time, the details showed professionalism and care. It was definitely a perfect diving experience and I'm already looking forward to coming back to Galaxy Diver2 next time!

The Galapagos a fantastic trip of a lifetime.
This trip was fantastic. This was the naturalist trip guided by a local from the Galapagos. Javier really made the trip special. His knowledge of the whole ecosystem was inspiring and plentiful. We saw everything we wanted to see and more. The food was expertly prepared and delicious. Our snorkel trips enabled to get a taste of the underwater world of the Galapagos. Everything was fantastic. Thank you liveaboard for a trip of a lifetime.

You treat yourself to some luxury, on the Galaxy Diver II you can easily do that
Diving in the Galapagos once, who doesn't dream of it? For us, this dream has come true, and not too closely!The boat exceeded our expectations. Of course, everything looks very good in the photos, but there is also a bit of cheating. But with the Galaxy Driver II, everything was really right. The photos show exactly what you get:A luxurious cabin with comfortable beds and a spacious bathroom (yes, bathroom, not wet room), a cozy salon, a very practical dive deck, exceptionally good food and top-class service.The entire crew, from the captain to the mechanic, helped at all times with drive and friendliness. Whether putting on the equipment or taking off the wet neoprene :-)) Everything worked like clockwork, you could only be amazed!Not all members of the crew spoke English, but with hands and feet or with the help of the dive guides, you could always communicate. They somehow read your wishes from your faces anyway. No wishes remained unfulfilled.The dive guides were very experienced and did a great job. We saw everything our hearts desired.But the guides not only gave their all under water, they were also always available to us on the boat. They gave short presentations about Galapagos, sharks or other topics on various evenings. A real added value!Within the crew, the harmony was clearly noticeable, which also rubbed off on the guests. All in all, we were a great group of guests, I wouldn't have expected.At the end of my song of praise I would like to highlight the desserts - they were (for me personally) each a highlight, luckily they were served twice a day :-))What I didn't like so much; the security aspect could have been done a little more pronounced. Of course, there was the emergency exercise before casting off, but it could have gone a little deeper. The same with the dives. There was always no information about what to do if... I know you may be reluctant to talk about these topics, but it is necessary.The negative entry of the Zodiac was demanded and also practiced, but with mistakes.You have to tell the divers again that "negative" does not mean meeting directly under the boat to sort yourself out. "Negative" means diving down immediately and you meet at the safe reef (where you can still follow the current). For this, it is necessary to agree on the depth at which they will meet and in which direction the reef is located. A tiny little thing, but one that can have a big effect.As far as the dive sites are concerned - superlatives! We couldn't have asked for a better route.We would do the same tour again with the Galaxy Diver II at any time!
