An excellent trip on a comfortable boat with a good crew and good food. We saw all of the expected wildlife, and snorkelling with sea lions and turtles amongst the fish was a particular highlight.
The boat is not operated by Explore, so on my trip there were other nationalities who had booked through other operators, but it was a good mix. On the afternoon of the first day at the hotel I received a WhatsApp from the cruise operator providing details of the airport transfer (handled by the hotel in my case) and of their representative who met me at the airport to provide my printed boarding pass and Transit Control Card. They also helped with the additional baggage check required before bag drop. The message also includes the flight details if you want to complete the bio-security form at https://declaracion.abgalapagos.gob.ec/ before arriving at the airport.
After snorkelling the crew will rinse all your gear and then hang wetsuits to dry (I think it was 80 USD to rent a wetsuit on board for the six days, but masks, snorkels and fins were free). There are lines with clothes pegs on the top deck to dry your swimwear.
Remember to take USD cash for tipping the crew and guide at the end of the trip. Two envelopes were left in my cabin for this, but the amount suggested at 15 USD per day for the guide and 25 USD per day for the crew of 11 was about double that in the trip notes.

Join us on an amazing safari adventure that will take you through Manyara, Serengeti, Ngorongoro, Lake Eyasi and Tarangire national parks.
Your adventure begins as you arrive at Kilimanjaro International Airport, where you’ll be greeted and transferred to the serene town of Arusha. Visit Arusha National Park, a gem teeming with wildlife and dramatic landscapes. Marvel at the towering Mount Meru, shimmering Momela Lakes, and the awe-inspiring Ngurdoto Crater. The park’s diverse wildlife, including elephants, giraffes, and the elusive leopards, sets the stage for the adventures to come.
From here, the tour takes you to the magical Lake Manyara National Park, nestled between the Rift Valley escarpment and the soda-rich waters of Lake Manyara. Look out for tree-climbing lions, baboons, and majestic elephants as you traverse this unique landscape.
A stop at the ethereal Lake Natron offers a serene yet wild escape. Known for its vivid colors and as a breeding ground for flamingos, the lake is surrounded by dramatic scenery. Explore the nearby waterfalls and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of this remote paradise.
Next, journey into the heart of Tanzania’s wilderness—the legendary Serengeti National Park. Experience the magic of sunrise game drives and witness the incredible spectacle of the Great Migration (season-dependent), where millions of wildebeests, zebras, and gazelles traverse the savannah in search of greener pastures. Encounter big cats, elephants, and the recently reintroduced rhinos as you traverse the vast plains.
The adventure continues at the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, home to the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater. This Unesco World Heritage Site is a natural amphitheater teeming with wildlife, from lions to flamingos, all thriving in its unique ecosystem.
Finally, explore the stunning Tarangire National Park, renowned for its majestic baobab trees and enormous herds of elephants. As the Tarangire River attracts a diverse range of wildlife, you’ll witness captivating predator-prey interactions and some of Tanzania’s rarest species, including the elusive oryx.
This tour will not only show you the prime wildlife game parks and reserves but also offers a rare chance to experience the cultural part of Africa.
