Absolutely amazing is all I can say. The hike was definitely one of the hardest things I’ve ever done, but it was so worth it. Our guides made sure that we had the best overall experience and I would recommend G adventures to everyone! The scenic views throughout the hike were absolutely breathtaking. The food was really good and we had no issues with our accommodations or travel. Thanks again to all the wonderful staff at G adventures that were with us throughout our Journey!

Set sail for an up-close wildlife odyssey with Pure Galapagos (Grand Daphne)—an eight-day adventure cruise that’s all about the islands’ legendary creatures and dramatic landscapes. This moderate-activity trip, beginning and ending on Baltra Island, skips the constant passenger changes and detours of many cruises, letting you fully immerse yourself in the archipelago’s wonders.
Snorkel alongside playful sea lions and reef sharks off Isla Santa Cruz and Isla Bartolome, hike volcanic trails on remote Isla Fernandina, and observe rare species like land iguanas and flightless cormorants on Punta Espinosa. Bird lovers will delight in the sight of frigatebirds, boobies, and pelicans soaring above North Seymour.
The unique selling point of this sailing tour package is its uninterrupted focus on wildlife and scenery—no distractions, just pure Galapagos magic. For nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers, this trip guarantees memories (and photos) you’ll treasure forever.

Overall a great experience in the jungle. The accommodation was very clean with no insects in the room - my biggest worry in advance. The excursions are great and depending on the weather adventurous. But that is whag I was looking for when booking this trip!
A thoroughly enjoyable trip. It was a priviledge to be able to go to Antarctica, where so few actually go. Very difficult to put into words what the trip meant other than amazing.
I would do the trip again.

Everything went perfect. From the time I was picked up from the hotel in Manaus, the boat ride crossing the Negro and Amazon rivers, the drive from the pier to the boat ride to the resort. I was in awe of the beauty and enormity of the forest. While boating through the flooded path amidst the trees, I fell in love with the Amazon forest. Definitely coming back again.
Tortuguero was full of great nature, although the heat and lack of fans and air conditioning can be brutal at times. Puerto Viejo/Cocles was our favorite and it was great to see the Caribbean side of Costa Rica; all of the experiences there were fantastic as well. Overall, we enjoyed our honeymoon and hope to make it back to Costa Rica to visit the other side of the coast in the future!
