    Dear Judy, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced due to the multiple errors. However, it’s important to note that these issues are not part of our services and are not related to the tour itself. To address them effectively, I recommend reaching out directly to the boat owners you booked the tours. They will be better equipped to assist you in resolving any concerns. Best regards,

    Dear Yelena, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback about your recent tour experience. We appreciate your insights, and I apologize for any shortcomings you encountered during your trip. Your comments are invaluable as they help us improve our services and address areas that need attention. Let me address your points individually: Volcano Tour Duration: We understand that the 6-hour duration of the volcano tour can be physically demanding. Your suggestion of adding horse and buggies to transport guests to the halfway point is excellent. However, it was always explained in the full itinerary while you were booking and it's necessary to be considered that this area is protected and normally the use of horses has extra cost. no buggies are allowed further than the limited area. Snorkeling Tour Experience: Your feedback regarding the snorkeling tour is crucial. We apologize for any disparity in providing life jackets and accommodating different swimming abilities. Rest assured, we will retrain our guides to ensure consistent safety measures and inclusivity for all guests. Organization on Isabela Island vs. Santa Cruz: We’re thrilled that you found the organization on Isabela Island commendable. Our team works hard to provide clear instructions and a seamless experience. Your feedback about Santa Cruz is noted, and we will focus on improving communication and clarity, even for shorter stays. Food and Wi-Fi: The Galapagos Islands offer a unique environment, and we appreciate your understanding regarding food quality and limited Wi-Fi availability. We’ll continue to strive for improvement while maintaining the island’s natural charm. We’re glad you had a smooth transition back to normal connectivity upon arriving in Quito. Your comfort and satisfaction are our priorities. Once again, thank you for choosing our tour, and we hope to welcome you back for an even better experience in the future. If you have any further comments or suggestions, please feel free to reach out. Safe travels! Best regards,

    Dear Susan, Thank you for sharing your incredible adventure with us! It warms our hearts to hear that you and Andrea Kaye had a wonderful time exploring the Galapagos Islands. Our dedicated team takes pride in ensuring that our guests are well taken care of, from the moment they step off the plane or speedboat to the fascinating guided tours. It’s fantastic that you immersed yourselves in the rich history of the islands. Our knowledgeable guides are passionate about sharing their insights, and we’re thrilled that you found their expertise educational. Customizing tours for just the two of you allowed for a personalized experience, tailored to your interests and preferences. The Ikala Hotel in Quito sounds like a gem! The blend of stunning architecture, captivating art, and friendly staff truly enhances the overall stay. We appreciate your understanding regarding the physical demands of the trip. While the Galapagos offers unparalleled beauty, the constant movement can indeed be challenging, especially for those in their golden years. Your recommendation to include an age range in our pamphlet is valuable feedback. We’ll take this into consideration to set clear expectations for future travelers. Despite the exhaustion, it’s heartwarming to know that you loved every minute of this remarkable journey. Thank you for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back for more unforgettable experiences. Safe travels, and may your memories of the Galapagos continue to inspire you! Warm regards,
