Galaxy Siriusクルーズボート, ガラパゴス諸島

Wonderful experience - loved every moment!

Our excursion on the Galaxy Sirius was flawless and fantastic. The islands and wildlife were breathtakingly beautiful. Each island was unique and seeing the land and sea creatures living in their natural habitat fulfilled a lifetime dream. Even for those not as awestruck by the Galapagos creatures will be inspired by the raw natural and unspoiled environment. Our guides, Chris & Walter, are extremely knowledgeable about everything Galapagos and patiently answered all questions about everything from fire ants to tortoises. They were patient with those who needed a bit more assistance, but didn’t take away from others who were more agile and adventurous. Each day’s itinerary was packed with a variety of activities from hiking, to snorkeling, to slow boat rides to in inlets and cooking classes. There was just enough down time to catch up on work or rest, and to prepare for the next adventure. The ship is beautiful & very clean! Cabins are large and have all amenities. The crew was always available to assure and ensure passengers were comfortable and had everything needed or wanted. As stated in other reviews, the Wi-Fi is quite fast and needed because of scant cell service on the islands. William is a fantastic cruise director. The entire trip was smooth and the whole crew were available for anything needed - keeping safety at top of mind. The food was delicious and varied, with different themes for many of the meals. The drinks were well crafted and tasty. Each meal had plenty of options, including vegetarian and gluten free. I loved the cocktail and cooking classes, and the juice/tea and snacks after every excursion. The size of the ship, accommodating up to 16 passengers is perfect. The 15 passengers on our ship blended well and had a great time sharing the adventures, photos/videos and bits about their lives. The common areas are beautiful. We loved eating Al fresco on the rear deck and in the dining room. The common areas are large and available throughout the ship, so it never felt crowded. The hot tub in the upper deck was amazing and felt great after snorkeling or hiking. There are plenty of lounge areas in the sun or shade. For those interested, the ship did get a bit rocky at times, but not anything unusual or unexpected. Motion sickness pills are good to have on hand. If I had more time, there are so many examples from our trip to write about - each wonderful in its own regard! I highly recommend the Galaxy Sirius, as an adventure of a lifetime and a fantastic and outstanding vacation.
