An expensive trip but highly highly recommended !!! This was absolutely one of the highlights of my gap year of travel. The ship was beautiful, got my own private cabin, lucky me, a big room; the crew worked hard, the food was way more than expected. Every day you make 2 or 3 trips, on land and snorkeling. All trips were unique and outstanding.
And on top of it our guide Darwin is superb! I cannot thank you enough Darwin!

Ich möchte mich beim ganzen Team bedanken - die Reise war ein Traum und die Organisation perfekt! Ich war au der 7-tägigen Reise auf der Cachalote Explorer. Die ganze Crew hat jeden Tag alles gegeben (Reinigung, Boottransfer, Kochen etc.) und das immer mit einem Lächeln - man hat sich sehr wohl gefühlt und die Leidenschaft für Galapagos gefühlt. Das wohl der Kunden stand an erster Stelle. Auch unser Guide hatte ein grosses Wissen über Flora & Fauna und hat sich um jede einzelne Person gekümmert, auch huer hat man die ganze Leidenschaft gespürt. Vielen herzlichen Dank für alles!

I cannot rave enough about Enchanted Expeditions! I recently returned from an 8 day trip aboard their yacht, Beluga, and everything from the communication before the trip to the service aboard the boat was perfect.

The team at Enchanted is extremely responsive and is willing to help with whatever they can. While on a pre-Galapagos trip to Cotapaxi (also through Enchanted), I requested somewhat last minute to have my flight from Galapagos to the mainland changed to a later date. Knowing that I would probably be out of cell service range for awhile the team made sure that someone was able to get the message to me that they were able to change my flight. The fact that three different people came to find me to make sure I knew about the flight change was incredible!

On board Beluga, everything we could have possibly asked for was taken care of! The yacht itself was immaculate and the crew was incredibly kind and welcoming. We had a couple people in our group with food sensitivities and the chef always had something special prepared for them without us needing to remind him.

Galapagos is, of course, a stunning place to visit. However, I truly believe that the naturalist guide you end up with can make or break the entire trip. The guide that Enchanted had for our trip, Karla, was truly incredible. She was able to answer just about every question we threw at her and it's clear that she loves what she does. There are some people who become naturalists because it pays the bills, while others do it to help drive change and make a difference. Karla clearly falls into the latter.

It is apparent that Enchanted Expeditions only works with the best of the best, and a positive experience for their guests is clearly their top priority. Delicious food, days packed full of activities like snorkeling, kayaking, and hiking, and a beautiful, clean boat with a truly remarkable crew has made me a customer of Enchanted for life.

I guess everyone dreams about going to the Galapagos, well if you go with Enchanted Expeditions I am sure it will exceed your expectations - as it did ours!

Organisation - First Class
Customer Service - First Class
The Cachalote - First Class
The Crew - First Class
The Guide ( Franklin) - First Class
The cost - very reasonable compared to others

The Galapagos islands themselves, the wildlife, the experience - are what dreams are made of!

Excellent 8-day trip on the Beluga. We did the "Hood" route, a truly unforgettable experience. Our fellow passengers were a friendly, active, international group, ranging in age from 27 to 70. Our guide, Juan, was outstanding. He took great photos (on land and underwater), which he shared with the group.
