HOLA , HEMOS ESTADO 8 DIAS DE CUCERO, EL BARCO EN GENERAL NOS HA PARECIDO MUY CÓMODO , LIMPIO, AUNQUE NOS ENCONTRAMOS ALGUNA CUCARACHA, LA TRIPULACIÓN MUY ATENTOS Y PENDIENTES DE TODO, EL GUÍA JORGE FANTÁSTICO . LA COMIDA ECHAMOS A FALTAR PODER ESCOGER ENTRE CARNE Y PESCADO , SOLO HABÍA UNA OPCIÓN DE SEGUNDOS Y POCO PESCADO. EN CUANTO A LAS ESCURSIONES EN MI OPINIÓN LAS SALIDAS DE SNOQUEL SON POBRES Y CORTAS, DE TODAS LAS QUE SE HICIERON 4 DE ELLAS SALÍAS DESDE LA PLAYA Y NO SE VEÍA NADA , ENTIENDO QUE HAY QUE CORDINARLO CON LA EXCURSIÓN DE TIERRA , PERO ESTOY EN GALÁPAGOS EN TEORÍA DE LOS MEJORES SITIOS DEL MUNDO PARA HACER SNORQUELING , NO ME PUEDES PONER EN UN SNORQUELING EN LA PLAYA CON OLAS QUE SE SABE DE SOBRA QUE NO SE VA A VER NADA , ME DIO LA SENSACIÓN QUE ALGUNAS SALIDAS DE SNORQUELING ERAN DE RELLENO Y NO SE LE DABA TANTA IMPORTANCIA COMO A LAS DE TIERRA. PIENSO QUE HAY MUCHA GENTE QUE LE INTERESA MÁS EL SNORQUELING QUE LAS SALIDAS DE TIERRA. TENDRÍAN QUE PREOCUPARSE MÁS Y BUSCAR SITIOS CON ALGO DE PROFUNDIDAD , Y FAUNA MARINA, QUE DE ECHO HAY MILES EN GALÁPAGOS . DE ECHO CUANDO NOS VENDEIS EL VIAJE , EL SNORQUELING SE PROMOCIONA BASTANTE, NO ENTIENDO PASAR TRES O CUATRO VECES POR SANTA CRUZ Y NO HACER LAS GRIETAS, O PASAR POR EL LEÓN DORMIDO DARLE DOS VUELTAS Y PASAR DE LARGO , CUANDO SON LUGARES EMBLEMÁTICOS , ES UNA PENA DESPUÉS DE LOS PRECIOS QUE SE PAGAN EN GALÁPAGOS .

We had a great time on the Galaxy Orion. Our naturalist guide Renny was fantastic, full of knowledge but also a nice person to have a conversation with. The crew were absolutely brilliant as well. We did and saw so much, with every snorkeling trip another highlight. I highly recommend this trip!

I recently booked a Galapagos cruise for my wife and myself with Galapagos Natural Life (GNL) and I'm very satisfied with the services rendered and my overall experience. Rodrigo, the Tour Manager, was with me every step of the way, answering all of my questions and concerns about getting to the airport, the check in procedures and document requirements. He was always available to answer a question no matter the time of day or day of the week. Even though we arrived two days before the start of our cruise, Rodrigo gladly arranged for transportation from the airport to my temporary residence and back again to the airport for the Galapagos flight which he also arranged and booked for us. Full disclosure, I had attempted to book the same cruise to the Galapagos Islands with another well known travel organization in Quito but dropped them due to hundreds of dollars of unexplained fees in their pricing. GNL's pricing was upfront with no hidden or unexplained charges and I found their pricing to be a much better value as it included my flights to the islands. The cruise ship, the Galapagos Legend, was amazing and I highly recommend taking a cruise to see the islands. When we decided to spend an extra night on Santa Cruz island after disembarking, Rodrigo cheerfully provided hotel recommendations and arranged for our luggage to be separated from the cruise ship and delivered to our final stop where he had arranged for a taxi to pick us, and our luggage up, and bring us to our hotel. All of this extra service was above and beyond the scope of the original tour but he did it for us anyway. We were so impressed with our experience with GNL, we decided to visit their office in Quito to express our gratitude. We were warmly received by Rodrigo and his staff who treated us more like good friends than customers inviting us to share breakfast and coffee with him. I would highly recommend anyone looking to book a cruise or tour to the Galapagos Islands and/or Ecuador to consider GNL if professional and personalized service as well as a seamless travel experience is important to them.
