Archipel I

The Galapagos Islands are spectacular and we are so glad we had the time to visit.  After a busy four days onboard La Pinta it was good to have a days break at Finch Bay.  It was certainly a well needed rest for us both.

Breathtaking

The Galápagos - just breathtaking - walking in woodland with wild giant tortoise grazing in clearings, watching wild land iguanas amble through long grasses, peering at eye level into the nests of red footed boobies, watching penguins and sea lions hunting fish whilst snorkelling, and as a finale, watching huge sharks circling in the boat lights during our final evening meal.

JW, Newcastle

The highlight was always going to be the Galápagos and it lived up to our expectations. It is a unique place and unlike our last visit we came away with hundreds of photographs to remind us of the trip.

NW, Wells

The sealions were brilliant fun and the pups so cute, and so close. All the wildlife was great and seeing it all up close as nothing is afraid of humans, was amazing.

KH, Weybridge

The Galápagos Islands were something else- quite outstanding for the wonderful wildlife and abundant sea life while snorkelling.

CP

The wildlife in the Galápagos was so totally unbothered by our presence.

Highlight of your trip?: Snorkeling in the Galapagos

It's very difficult to pick out one thing. Seeing the animals everywhere we went was amazing. We fell in love with the sea-lions. I loved the walk up to the view over Pinnacle Rock and then being on the beach by the rock afterwards. Seeing a white tipped shark from the beach was something I never expected.

The Galápagos Islands were out of this world.

A holiday in the Ecuador and the Galápagos is a once in a lifetime experience. A four day cruise whilst being an excellent 'overview' is just not long enough. Encourage all your customers to take the longest possible cruise.

Without a doubt, the Galapagos Islands were amazing. We feel very privileged.

SM, South Croydon

One of us had not snorkelled for a very long time and was hesitant in deep water. Martin the Naturalist on MV Eclipse helped her overcome her fears and enabled her to accompany him resulting in amazing underwater views that she would not have had. The whole trip was memorable for both of us... We just loved the Galapagos.

AL

A couple of days in the Galapagos when we didn't see any other people. Intimacy of swimming with sealions, turtles & being chased in the water by a flightless cormorant!

TC, St Albans

The Galapagos tour was our highlight because of the proximity and abundance of the wildlife.

AB, St Neots

How close we could get to the wildlife in the Galápagos.

DG, Neston

The Galápagos Islands are a wonderland. If I say that of all places I have visited in the world only the Grand Canyon is their equal in impact and living up to expectation you will have an idea of how they affected both of us.

DW Lingfield

The Galapagos animals, scenery and sea were out of this world, just fabulous

CH, Epsom

I had wanted to travel to the Galápagos for many years.  My husband did not want to go, so I arranged the trip by myself and had a memorable time, whilst feeling very well looked after by JLA.

JG

Most Memorable Moment: Swimming with sea lions, following hundreds of dolphins on the boat, diving with penguins

KH, London

The Galápagos were above expectation – the best thing we have done.

DL, Dulwich

The range of wildlife to be seen in the Galapagos stood out but there were so many highlights.

TH, Colchester

Our time on the Galápagos Islands was unique to us, the wildlife was fabulous, we enjoyed every minute of it.

BT, Ware

The Galápagos trip was very sympathetic to the environment and local habitat.

AD, Dublin

The Galápagos Islands were out of this world.

DJ, Chesterfield

Snorkelling with penguins, turtles, sea lions and marine iguanas. Unbeatable.

DJ, Saltash

A truly wonderful and privileged experience!

RD, Ashford

Everything came up to expectations but the highlight was the Galápagos Islands

SC, London, SW11

Truly a unique lifetime experience, especially snorkelling for the first time with playful sea lions, sea turtles, penguins, rays and ‘tame’ wildlife.

SD, Rochester

No-one should consider a Galápagos cruise of less then 8 days. We both had a holiday of a lifetime.

LF

Visiting the Galápagos islands and coming so close to so many special species of animals and birds was a memorable experience.
