Quito 9-Day Tours and Trips

Overall, this was a great trip! This is our 4th trip with this tour company, and once again, we loved our experience. It was a nice combination of activity and downtime and felt like a vacation. The Galapagos is such a unique and special place. Our guide, Pablo, was extremely knowledgeable about everything. He shared his knowledge and personal stories with us which added to our experience. People ask what our favorite part was, and that is really difficult to answer because so many things stick out: the wildlife being so present everywhere, snorkeling with giant turtles, the hike up the volcano.

This was truly one of the best trips ever, thanks to the amazing itinerary, remote and unspoiled landscapes, unique and plentiful wildlife, seamless logistics, and excellent fellow travelers, but most of all because of our incredible guide, Pablo! His deep understanding of the science, his passion and enthusiasm, and his dramatic delivery kept us all enthralled. He had answers to all of our questions and made sure everyone was OK at all times. THANK YOU FOR AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE!!

An absolutely fantastic trip. I cannot say enough about how organized and complete everything was. Pablo was a fantastic guide and his love for the Galapagos was evident. We also had the pleasure of having Paolo on the trip and he was terrific as well. I always thought that when I made it to the Galapagos it would be by boat. I am delighted and so happy that this was a land-based trip. I cannot say enough about how much my husband and I enjoyed this adventure. Thank you, tour operator, Pablo and Paolo.

This was my second trip to Galapagos with G this year. I was so impressed with the first trip when I took my 15 year old son that I urged my 13 year old to go so I could return. Each trip was unique in the details, but the whole experiences were equally great. It was good to see the consistency in the quality of guides we had: Dario Chimarro and Sandra Masaquiza. They were both born in Galapagos and were extremely knowledgeable about. every aspect of the islands. Now my husband wants to know when I'm going to "take him." I'm thinking next year. :)

Just back from this trip. Wish we were still on board the Cachalote. What an amazing experience! The time in Quito is limited but we managed to pack in lots, the Teleferico, Old Town, La Bascilica, Botanical Gardens, Quito is easy to get around, taxis are cheap. All transfers were very well managed by the local agents Enchanted Expeditions. The boat, Cachalote 1 was fantastic. Great crew, all friendly. El Capitan ran the ship well. Pedro made exceptional food both quality and amounts from his little galley. Safety was taken seriously. The Galapagos Islands were all and much more than expected. Every day was different, packed full of activities and experiences.

We have done multiple G Adventures trips. in the past. The CEO was good, but below the high benchmark they usually set. The place was fantastic, but it could do with a wider variety of activities (aka less beach time, more optional activities of hiking, cave climbing, cycling etc). Overall still very nice
