I reached out to the...
I reached out to the operator the evening before because they hadn’t reached out to me. Description says 07:00am pick up but it was actually at 08:00am. Bring your own snorkel (every tube they offered us had black mould spots inside). Boat crew got us to each location safely. Guide found us lots of animals to swim with.

Awesome trip!
Wonderful experience and Eduardo communicated everything with me along the way. Great trip and highly recommend! Visited pinzon, floreana, Santa Fe, and Bartolomé on day trips and they did not disappoint

Definitely not trustworthy, more interested in making a quick buck than offering a quality experience!
Not impressed at all with this tour operator. Together with family friends, we booked 2 trips with this tour operator.
First, a 5 day/4 night cruise with this agency. Not only did we pay way more than all the other passengers onboard, we were also fleeced on the duration of the cruise. In reality, it was a 4 night/4 day cruise. It started very late on our day of arrival and ended at 8am on the final day. Despite the exceedingly high cost ($3k p.p.), we were required to pay an additional $30 for poor quality wetsuits. We asked Eduardo several times to let the boat know in advance of our food allergens, but to no avail.
Second, we had also booked a day trip with Eduardo, again, he didn't inform them of our allergies and the boat and service were very average.
Sadly, I would not recommend this agency to anyone looking for a cruise or a day trip in this otherwise extraordinarily beautiful archipelago.

good afternoon dear francis and thank you very much for your comment, just to give some clarity to your disagreements which are understandable but not acceptable since you bought your cruise a long time in advance for the first days of January which are high demand at a direct rate with a discount of 20% to the original price.
All the services purchased were detailed in the voucher and the infringement sent by an inmate, which was fully complied with. The price they paid was for the services they received on a first-class cruise.
In short, we hope you have been able to take beautiful memories of Galapagos.
best regards.
I still have the messages where you threatened me from the beginning saying that if I don't charge you for certain things you will give me bad comments since you told me that I was very popular on Google, let me tell you that you cannot go through life thinking about traveling for free or getting free stuff just for your feedback. fortunately I have many more comments that say the opposite of what you allege in your comment that it is malicious

Great 8 days in the Galápagos with Eduardo’s agency!
Eduardo booked us with all our activities, hotels and ferry for our 8 days trip to the Galápagos Islands. Everything was really great coordinated and he was always available to help us and give extra recommendations. Highly recommended!!

Best part of my stay in Galapagos
Worth every dollar. We swam with iguanas, sea lions, turtles, sharks, too many fish to name. Extremely up-close encounters with animals. It was like nothing I've ever experienced. The tour provided breakfast (fruit, bread, coffee), and lunch (the best ceviche, chips, rice, iced tea), towels, and gear. Our tour guide was fun and friendly and knew a lot about the history of Ecuador and Galapagos. Had a ton of fun talking with him on the journey to and from Pinzon. He was very accommodating of everyone in our group and made sure everyone felt safe at all times.

Best snorkeling experience ever!
Best snorkeling experience ever! The tour took us to 2 different snorkeling areas. We saw giant sea turtles, many different types of rays, including watching a pair of manta rays copulating, and then we swam with a manta who made multiple passes in front of us! It was amazing! We saw sea snake eels and tiger striped eels, white tipped sharks, all sorts of tropical fish and then we watched in amazement as baby sea lions frolicked all around us.
They served us a snack after the first location which was unexpected and a beautiful hot lunch later of fresh fish with a delicious sauce and the usual Ecuadorian accompaniments.
Everyone on-board agreed it was a fabulous day. On the way back we fished for half an hour or so. Probably hoping to catch lunch for the tour the next day.
