Incredibly beautiful trip
I had the most amazing time aboard the Tiburon Explorer in the Galapagos. The dives were beautiful and truly memorable. We were lucky to have a fantastic dive group—everyone was very experienced, which made each dive even more enjoyable and easy. The staff was attentive, helpful, kind, and professional, and I especially appreciated that the captain personally did buddy checks to make sure everyone reached the zodiac safely and properly equipped. The food on board was delicious, with a rich and varied cuisine that made every meal something to look forward to. All in all, it was a beautiful trip and an unforgettable experience.

Absolutely a pleasure to sail on this ship with this crew; loved the experience, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
The entire trip was a pleasure. Very nice boat, and the crew were fantastic. Great food, and always caring for us. The diving was fantastic! They did their very best to help us enjoy the trip. We had 8 in our group and we had so much fun. Thank you to everyone involved, because this vacation was beautiful.

Unique diving and boat experience
100% recommended! The boat is very, very comfortable (big rooms, very clean, small group), the food is delicious (be prepared to game some weight ;-)), the service of the crew is first class! The dives are amazing, be prepared for some current and many animals.

Memorable diving trip!!
We were only 9 divers on this cruise and received a top level and remarkable service (a real family!) from our two guides Victor and Natalia as well as the crew. A word about Natalia who is an exceptional guide, enthusiastic both underwater and out of the water, she creates a unique atmosphere while being super professional. The team took great care of us, both the captain and the sailors and the service team. Exceptional manta dives in interactions (6 simultaneously), dolphins, sea lions, sharks, birds...... sometimes very strong current. The desire to go back there in the dry season is more than strong!! I highly recommend!!
