Absolute trip of a lifetime! The Galapagos surpasses all of your expectations!
Spent my birthday week diving with Galaxy Diver 2 and everything was beyond expectations! The food was fantastic and plentiful. No one was ever hungry and there was plenty at meal time for 2nds or 3rds. The guides, Paulo and George were beyond accommodating and were extremely knowledgeable and extremely fun and the rest of the staff were just as hospitable. All dives felt extremely safe and as mesmerizing as you could imagine. 10/10 would and will dive with this boat again.

Best vacation of my life.
An absolutely incredible experience. I took a chance due to few reviews and not being real sure about the official website, and am very glad I did! An absolutely amazing experience. We saw the whale shark, mola mola, red lipped bat fish, countless hammerheads, tons of spotted eagle rays, and more. Paolo and William were awesome guides finding pretty much everything you could ask for. They both took plenty of great photos as well and provided them for free. The food was outstanding. A lot of Ecuadorian food and a dessert with every meal. I was never hungry. The boat… wow. Is this how millionaires live? A beautiful luxury yacht and the crew cleaned cabin and made our beds in between every dive if we slept in them! A nice hot tub on the top deck. Everything was near spotless. The crew helped us doing literally every task we needed help with. Free very fast wifi from Starlink. I clocked over 60mbps in the middle of the ocean. You won’t regret booking it.

Remote diving in luxury levels of comfort
Diving in the Galapagos is truly one of the best spots in the world. The galaxy diver2 has world class amenities, cabins, showers with ample hot water and a spacious dive deck, and importantly in this location is the fastest dive boat in the Galapagos. This allows them to move between Wolf and Darwin during lunch if conditions at one are better than the other. If you get seasick this means nearly half as long in transit between locations. The staff is amazing the food is great and the ship is top notch.

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!

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!

Just an absolute magical experience to discover the Galapagos on board of the Galaxy Diver II
It was just overall superb. The diving and underwater life, but also the fantastic crew and dive guides Jorge and William! Also we were lucky with our fellow divers and the food was just delicious. The boat was just newly renowated and in top shape and beginning of july was a great month to chose for a liveaboard in the Galapagos. At Wolf and Darwin there was unbelievable action, literally there wasnt a single moment without hammerheads or huge galapagos sharks in your sight!
