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

DL, Dulwich

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.

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

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

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

MCP Richmond

The most memorable experiences were 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.

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.

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

SC, London, SW11

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.

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

CP

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

AD, Dublin

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 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 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

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

JC, Littlehampton

 Impossible to choose between the Galápagos and Easter Island - both are magical, special places.

SM, Wandsworth

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

DW, Stevenage

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

SD, Rochester

The trip around the Galápagos was spectacular and I have never experienced anything like it before.

The Galápagos Islands were out of this world.

DJ, Chesterfield

The Galapagos blew me away. was even better than I expected. it never felt crowded and the guides and crew made us feel as thought we were special.

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

SM, South Croydon

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

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

FM, Manchester

The Galápagos Islands were fantastic and beyond our wildest expectations.

AC

Galapagos was incredible. We loved it. The guides were all excellent and we especially enjoyed having guides with a naturalist qualification.

LE, Poole

Galapagos Islands wildlife, guide and boat. To be so close to birds and animals is a privilege and to see such pristine beaches and scenery is lovely.

SJ, Winchelsea

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

DD, Uxbridge

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