Amazing 5 stars across the board would do it again!
Yes, my first cruise. It was well planned by the Galaxy crew who pampered and cared for us daily! I looked forward to each days adventures which were presented to us daily by our naturalist Sebastian whose enthusiasm was contagious. Galápagos presented unique creatures and best of all was we saw what they are like when they are not afraid of us! They were curious about us, I swam within schools of fish, seals..etc nothing on land ran or flew away but just watched us very unique experience! After each event the crew was there there to greet us with fresh juice and snacks, life should always be this good Lol! I would highly recommend this adventure cruise from Galaxy to everyone!

Planned perfectly
We loved this trip. Every day we snorkeled, went on a tender ride to explore the coastline, and went on a hike/walk to explore the land. The days were perfectly planned. There were snacks after every activity and the crew was super vigilant about safety and keeping us informed.

Fantastic experience and adventures on a very comfortable boat with excellent food and great people; both guests and staff.
Excellent experience overall. We enjoyed the comfort of the boat and the staff treated us like royalty. The meals served were very very good and they were served at the shared dining table that accommodated all 13 guests on board. We loved that when we returned from an adventure, there would be freshly squeezed juice or tea with a snack waiting for us on the back deck. The adventures included hiking, snorkeling and nature walks and were fantastic. The daily briefings of the our schedule were very helpful. The only negative, was the very early start on the last morning which required us to be packed and out of our cabin at 5 a.m. eating breakfast and ready to depart the boat at 6 am.

Highly recommend a galaxy five day cruise
Such a fun trip! The ship is spotlessly clean and my cabin was very comfortable. The food was excellent with good choices and coffee/expresso and water was always available. The activities on each island were interesting and just long enough. We saw amazing wildlife, natural landscapes, and enjoyed numerous beaches and deeper water snorkel dives. The crew worked really hard to keep the ship in top shape, make us feel comfortable and safe. We only had nine in our group so we really got to know each other and had fun together.

Fabulous 5-night experience in the Galápagos.
From start to finish, the organisation was excellent with great attention to detail. The food was fantastic although drinks expensive. Activities were non-stop and very well conducted. At all times the crew and guiding were brilliant. Yes it is expensive to do a small boat cruise of the Galapagos but really worth the experience. And we were super-lucky to have a great bunch of people on the boat with us.

An incredible Galapagos cruise!
My husband and I loved our 5 day/4 night Galapagos cruise onboard the Galaxy. Everything about the cruise was fantastic. The boat was clean and well furnished. The cabins were spacious and comfortable. The features like shower and air conditioning worked well. The food was wonderful and we never went hungry. We particularly liked the snacks they would serve every time we returned to the boat from an activity like snorkeling or beach walk. The crew was kind and professional. The naturalist was spirited and knowledgeable. Everything happened on a precise schedule that was easy to follow (and nice to have structure). The snorkeling was amazing, especially with the high quality scuba mask and wet suits provided. We will absolutely be returning to the Galapagos another cruise!

Lovely, friendly Galaxy crew in an unparalleled destination. We certainly stayed busy and after each activity we were treated to a freshly made treat. The three meals a day were so delicious and special

A delightful introduction to the Galapagos
The combination of a nice not too big boat, good crew and local guide who knows a lot, made our first experience with the Galapagos Islands a great experience. We were very active, ate good food and had a lot of young couples as fellow passengers.
