Very fine experience with this top class crew and dive experts
Carlos and Javier were top class dive masters who expertly guided the guests through 19 exciting and always very safe dives on this week trip. They made the entire experience extremely enjoyable, and were terrific at sharing their knowledge which added considerably to each day. But the dive masters alone would not have been able to deliver such a brilliant but intense week without the first class crew aboard. Incredible team work and understanding of exactly what was required to make the week as good as it possibly could be for all guests aboard. This is hard to achieve and we were very grateful to everyone. The food was superb. Healthy, plentiful and lots of options. The boat was spacious and in good condition making this I think one of the finest experiences one could hope for as a privileged visitor to the magical world of the Galapagos.

Once in a lifetime trip but this one was worth it
I was a little worried about going in the “low” season but the marine life at the sites was like something in a documentary! The crew was efficient and helpful and all the dives went off without any issues. The food was excellent and would certainly recommend this Liveaboard to others.

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!

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.

An amazing week on board the Galaxy Diver 2 in the Galapogas.
I cannot speak highly enough of how good this trip was. The Diving was unbelievable and exceeded any expectattions I had pre-trip (and believe me they were high!). Jorge and Paolo were excellent Dive Guides and the staff on the Galaxy Diver could not do enough to make sure our experience was first rate. The Galaxy Diver 2 itself is like a floating 5 Star Hotel and the food throught the trip was excellent with high quality and variety throughout the trip. If and when I return to dive in the Galapogas, this is the Liveaboard I would choose.
