The best way of seeing wildlife - I can’t say enough good things about this trip! Firstly the wildlife we got to see were better than we even expected and the turtles and rays in particular provided us with the most incredible experience. The guide was great and clearly took us to the best spots and I was really impressed with the equipment that we were provided with

Incredible day out - The highlight of our trip to Galapagos and one I would absolutely recommend for anyone visiting, regardless of how long they are there. The wildlife we saw was exactly what we pictured and had always dreamt of and this was the best way to experience it. Also very high quality equipment onboard which seemed new and in good condition

Excellent Day Trip!! - The meeting point at Hotel Ninfa was very easy and centrally located. Just a short walk to meet the boat and we were on our way. There were 10 people on our boat and didn’t feel cramped. The first stop to snorkel was about a 30 minute ride to the west side of Santa Cruise where the captain skillfully got us close to shore between the wave breaks. The masks and fins are provided but the water is very cold in June if you dont have a wet suit. The wildlife was abundant including many fish and several turtles. We got back on the boat and they had snacks and drinks waiting on the table. We departed for Isla Pinzon which was about an hour for the second stop. We arrived to nesting blue footed boobys on the clifside which was incredible! The water was a little colder here but there were more fish, turtles, sharks and sea lions! After the swim, lunch was provided and we headed back toward Puerto Ayora, stopping to fish for some tuna!

Great experience - It started off a bit rocky. The guide didn't have the list and the boat wasn't prepared. We were delayed about 1.5 hours because of this. But when we got out on the water everything was great! The crew was phenomenal and the guide paid attention to everyone equally in different languages. We were fortunate to see so much wildlife on our trip. We were told it wasn't like that yesterday but that's any snorkel cruise in the world. They give you a chance to see it, never promise.

DANGEROUS - Check Viator for my in-depth review of this tour and company. We were both physically injured by this tour due to the severe conditions of the water. This boat should have never left the port. I understand no one can control the weather, but it’s a captains (and therefore this companies) responsibility never to put their passengers in danger. I have been suffering from severe neck and low back pain since the tour. Stay away from this company, the boat “contagious” and the guide Luis.

DANGEROUS - Let me start by saying I almost never leave a negative review. However this tour was unsafe and physically painful. The boat ride was the equivalent of 3 hours of severe turbulence. My neck and back are still in pain 12 hours later, it hurts to stand and turn my neck. The boat nearly capsized twice. There was no fishing because you could not stand up on the boat. I understand that the tour operator cannot control the weather, but it’s their responsibility to cancel tours when guests will be put in danger. The snorkeling was a waste of time seeing a few things that could be seen in any tropical area. No sharks. We had to swim hundreds of yards to the boat that kept moving away from us as the crew laughed. Our guide only spoke mumbly Spanglish and seemed the find the guests discomfort comical. The beach was the only good thing about this tour, but we nearly hit another boat and wrapped their anchor line around one of our propellers. I will be contacting local officials to lodge a formal complaint against this company as well. Avoid the boat “Contagious” and the guide Luis.
