Best trip ever!

I highly recommend this trip if you are considering it. Golinidria staff were excellent communicators from someone meeting us at the airport to get our pass to Galapagos and getting our boarding pass. As welll as meeting us at the airport and making sure we got on the correct bus. Once we arrived at our boat we met the crew who were welcoming and king. Roberto our guide was a wealth of information. He was patient and able to answer all of our questions. He made the most out of our 3 nights and 4 days, making sure we got see as many animals as we could and experiencing the different islands. This trip is a highlight of my life. I traveled with my son who has a visual impairment and I can't compliment Roberto and the staff for accommodating his impairment. I am so grateful to have been able to experience this. It is an unforgetable trip and you will not be disappointed. The Sea Lions were my favorite but it was such a joy to see all of the animals in the natural habitat. This trip filled my cup several times over. The food was plentiful and tasty and there was always fresh water available. I cannot recommend this trip and company enough. You will not be disapointed!! Just do it!

Every hike and snorkeling event was enjoyable.. The staff was extremely welcoming and kind. They all went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and well informed..

Wonder of a trip

The other passengers were wonderful, the islands are superb if not magical. Cruising the islands on the boat’s outdoor deck, the sun and breeze drying the salt water in your hair… bare feet and comfortable.

Basic accommododies but great food, crew and guides

Snorkeling, tortoises and sea turtles galore! Did the 5 day but really only 3 days on boat, I wouldve booked the 8 day if I could go back in time, you see a lot more and is less time on the boat then I thought. Only recommend if you are ok with tight uncomfy sleeping quarters, rest of boat was nice and comfy.
