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

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.

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

Highlight?: Probably a sea lion playing underneath me and showing off whilst I was snorkelling.  Beautiful.  

DD, Uxbridge

This was our holiday of a lifetime fulfilling a long held desire to visit the Galápagos Islands, and it lived up to all our expectations.

SH, Aylesbury

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.

Unique experience

A holiday in Ecuador/the Galapagos is a once in a life time 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.

DW, Lingfield

The cabin upgrade was definitely worth the extra money, much more space and good sized windows!
 

LF, Alderley Edge

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 cruise was just so good. I don't think I can remember enjoying a recent trip so much.

NJ, London

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

DG, Neston

The wildlife on the islands (obviously the major reason for the trip) was spectacular and wonderful to experience. I’m please to have made the trip and would certainly recommend the Galápagos to anyone with similar interests and sufficient money.

PM, Chesterfield

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.

EK, Saltash

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

KH, London

The close proximity of the wildlife in the Galapagos is amazing.

DW, Stevenage

"The Galápagos Islands and the amazing Machu Picchu ruins.  A real once in a lifetime experience."

MCP Richmond

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

The trip to to the Galapagos was the highlight undoubtedly - and the memories will remain with us for a long time -along with the huge photographic archive taken!

CG, Stratchcarron

Being able to visit the Galápagos with a reputable company was a highlight - the boat was fantastic and everything about the holiday was first rate.

KF, Norfolk

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

We loved snorkelling with marine iguanas, turtles, and the lovely playful sealions.

FM, Manchester

So many (highlights) it's hard to single some out. The Galapagos are a joy from start to finish.

JC, Littlehampton

Highlight of your trip?: Snorkeling in the Galapagos

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

TH, Colchester

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

DL, Dulwich

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

DJ, Saltash

A truly wonderful and privileged experience!

RD, Ashford

Wonderful experience

Isolation on the Islands a feeling of being in the Galapagos by invitation of the inhabitants - the wildlife. A truly wonderful and privileged experience.

SD, Rochester

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!
