    This was a fantastic tour!! The group came together and became one happy family. And Lorenzo, our guide, was excellent! If you’re interested in the Galapagos, this is the tour you should take!

    This was an excellent vacation. The activities were varied and always fascinating, the boat, meals and crew were wonderful and the guide Carlos was super accessible and knowledgeable. Transfers were smooth and well organized as well the intervened to get us on an earlier flight when there was a delay in our flights - even without us calling for help.

    My tour, the Galapagos Island Hopping, was excellent. The tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and adaptable. The itinerary was great too. Highly recommend this tour, but add another couple of days to visit other islands on your own too.
