Third Time - Amazing Again!
I used Galapatours for the third time to arrange a trip to the Galapagos with my parents. As always, the trip was amazing, Thomas was swift and responsive and sorted out our flights and the boat. All was fantastic. The Archipell II was great, our naturalist guide amazing, and the Galapagos is incredible with new experiences every time.

One Of Our Best Vacations Ever
I wanted to send you a quick note and thank you for your help with our Galapagos trip. It was truly one of our best vacations ever. We spent a day exploring Old Town Quito and really liked our visit to the Intinan Museum at the equator.
The Archipell II crew and our naturalist were outstanding in their service. The wildlife and the islands were amazing to see and we learned a lot. We snorkeled with sharks, sea turtles and sea lions. We saw penguins, dolphins and many land and marine iguanas and many birds. We loved spending the day in Puerto Ayora. We stayed at the Galapagos Suites which was outstanding - very spacious, very clean and the manager was so helpful! I would highly recommend them.
We went to the local outdoor food stalls and had fresh lobster for dinner! Besides the Charles Darwin Research Institute, we visited a private facility and were able to visit with giant tortoises in their natural environment Amazing creatures!
FYI for future passengers - the Archipell II cabins have a safe in each room and a hairdryer. Our itinerary changed a little and the naturalist said it was based on the National Park discretion. It may be helpful to let future passengers that this can happen.Valerie M., 28th November 2017

Great Voyage
Our family did a 8 day cruise on the Archipell II in March and we have nothing but good things to say about this boat. We saw no evidence of cockroaches and were very pleased with the boat and its accommodations. It is very comfortable and has a great partially covered over upper deck that was great to sit out on and still be protected from the sun. The crew were attentive and accommodating and the food was plentiful and good.
From what we saw during our cruise I would have to say that the Archipell II looked like one of the best boats out there. I would highly recommend it!Doasiplease, Kingston, Canada, 13th June 2017
