One of the best trips of my life. From the ease of booking, to the wonderful guide, and the incredible group of people that were on this trip, everything was amazing.

Expectations were 10/10 for coming to the Galapagos, and it lived up to the hype. The Galapagos was the best aquatic experience of anywhere we've visited in the entire world (better than Great Barrier Reef, Maldives, Hawaii, or Belize), and we particularly loved the abundance of MASSIVE sea turtles--though the hammerhead sharks at Kicker Rock were a close second. The hundreds of sea lions on San Cristobal especially were awesome to swim and hang out on the beach with, and the many wild tortoises, iguanas, and blue footed boobies on Isabela were amazing too. Food was moderately priced, accommodations were nicer than expected (all with AC and Wifi), and our guide, Jose, was the best person we could have asked for. Would highly recommend to anyone interested in the world's best snorkeling experience!

I had an incredible time on the Ecuador and Galapagos tour. I think what would have been great would have been a WhatsApp group chat with the team as that would have helped us stay in contact throughout the trip. I also wish we had a bigger ?night out? as it was a 19-30somethings trip, it was just a drink on the beach. But otherwise everything else was great and it will be a trip I will remember forever! Thank you G adventures and Venus!!
