A thoroughly enjoyable experience
The weather was a little cooler than we expected, but clear while there. The chef and his staff went to immense trouble to cater for my gluten free dietary needs. Top marks - very impressed.

Amazing experience for family with kids and grandparents.
I have been on a number of cruises of different sizes and I have to say that this was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. The boat is on the small side with 16 passengers max. But it does not feel cramped in any way. There’s a nice size dining room where they put out a buffet three times a day that is excellent. There’s an espresso coffee and tea machine available 24 hours. A comfortable living room inside where you could sit and read or have a drink from the bar. And a top deck that is perfect for reading or watching the sunset. The food was really delicious, especially given that we were at sea. The activities were packed in that you do usually four a day - walk, snorkel, walk, kayak, etc. after the first activity in the morning and the first activity of the afternoon, you come back to a warm, homemade snack and cold drink. Alex was our guide and he was absolutely incredible. I felt like the places we went and the wildlife we were able to see from so close you could not believe it were out of this world. They made an effort to have us see extra things - like they offered a 6am snorkel one day because that’s when the hammered sharks are around and we saw them - just amazing. We were a family of four with two kids ages nine and 13. We saw almost no other children while we were touring in any other group or even in the towns. But the guides were wonderful about keeping them engaged and including them and we also had a 78 year-old grandmother on the same tour and they were equally amazing with her. I looked at a lot of different ships and I think that the itinerary and quality here for the price is unmatched. Highly recommend.

Trip of a lifetime
Galaxy cruise was fantastic 5 nights was a perfect amount of time. Alex our guide was so knowledgeable, friendly and responsible. Food was delicious Staff very friendly and considerate. Cabin was comfortable and clean with serving 3 rimes per day. Small boat was great. A little bit of a freshen up of the bathroom would be welcome but it was ok - water didn’t drain from the shower very well. A minor issue.

Planned perfectly
We loved this trip. Every day we snorkeled, went on a tender ride to explore the coastline, and went on a hike/walk to explore the land. The days were perfectly planned. There were snacks after every activity and the crew was super vigilant about safety and keeping us informed.

Absolutely incredible and utterly unique
A Galapagos cruise seems pricey at first. But once you've experienced one, you will never regret a penny. It's not just that the islands and wildlife are utterly incredible and unlike anything else in this world, there is so much included in that price -- 3-4 excursions a day, zodiacs taking you to and from the islands, snorkeling gear, room + board, nearly a ratio of 1 crew to each guest, as well as the cost of the domestic flight to the islands. It takes an immense amount of effort and resources to execute these trips. It's impossible to describe in words how unique the islands and wildlife are -- it leaves you with a new appreciation of how precious and marvelous our planet it. Just go -- you won't regret it.
