Amazing itinerary and guiding, wonderful staff - highly recommended!
This cruise exceeded all my expectations! The itinerary is undoubtedly the best you can get for a week, tailormade for exploring all the most amazing endemic species of Galapagos. Thanks to our guides (Christian "Cocarocha" and Christian Garcia) we encountered whale sharks, eagle rays, giant manta, other stingrays and peruvian torpedo rays, octopus, red-lipped batfish, mola-mola (moon fish), marine iguanas, sea lions, Galapagos sharks, hundreds of hammerheads and turtles. The friendly and helpful staff made it as effortless as a liveaboard cruise with 19 dives in a week can possibly be. And hey - the Chef: Totally awesome! New dishes each day with local food (a lot from the sea), neatly arranged on our plates. Apetizers and dessert. In practice, two dinners per day. Undoubtedly, the trip of our lifetime!

Crew and diving Spectacular and incredible. 100% recommended.
Extraordinary experience, highly recommended.The boat was great, the crew very aware of everything. The dive guides are very prepared, friendly and very helpful. The food on the boat was delicious, all homemade and served deliciously. My girlfriend is celiac, and they prepared gluten-free food for her every day. The service with liveaboard.com also great, very dynamic and agile and an extraordinary service.

It was an amazing dive trip!
We had a great experience with Aqua liveaboard. It was much better than anticipated. The guides and wait staff were so professional and helpful. The chef always had fresh fruits, vegetables, and a tasty variety at all meals. The only suggestion I have is to test for covid daily and have a separation of the positive people.

Unforgettably beautiful liveaboard - A diver's dream
Our experience on the diving safari with the Aqua was completely positive.The trip was unforgettable – especially the spectacular underwater world around Darwin and Wolf was a real highlight. The sightings of large schools of hammerhead sharks, two encounters with a whale shark, as well as impressive groups of tuna, barracuda, eagle rays and other shark species have made this safari a unique experience. The dive at Fernandina was particularly impressive, where we were able to watch marine iguanas feeding underwater – a truly extraordinary moment.Everything was also right above water: the food on board was excellent, the crew was very friendly and professional, and the weather played along the whole time. All in all, a top organized trip with many unforgettable impressions.
