We loved the variety of excursions, and how each of the three islands offer something unique. All the guides did a great job, but three especially stand out: Ramiro, (biking on Santa Cruz), Desiree (snorkeling on Santa Fe) and Julio (volcano hike on Isabela). Lava House and Loja are especially nice hotels. Rooms, breakfast, sitting areas and helpful staff were all perfect. Casa de Nelly was not quite as nice as the other hotels. The breakfast and staff are wonderful, but the rooms and outdoor area are not as comfortable. Self-serve coffee and tea, like the other hotels, would be nice. All the arrangements and everything we experienced were just amazing. I would only fault some lack of communication as to activities and particulars. Advance knowledge of transportation plans, activity specifics, luggage fees, etc. would be helpful. All in all, this was an incredible experience that I would recommend to my friends, and repeat for myself. Thank you!Show more

Hello Roby, Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It’s wonderful to hear how much you loved the variety of excursions and the unique charm of each island. We’re especially glad Ramiro, Desiree, and Julio stood out—they’ll be so happy to know they made your trip extra special! We’re delighted you enjoyed your stays at Lava House and Loja, and we truly appreciate your honest feedback about Casa de Nelly. We’ll take your suggestions to heart, especially about adding little touches like self-serve coffee and tea to make it cozier. We’re sorry for any confusion about the activities and logistics—thank you for pointing that out. We’ll make sure to communicate more clearly in the future so everything flows smoothly. It means so much to us that you’d recommend this experience to your friends and even want to return yourself. We’d love to welcome you back for another adventure! ???? Best regards, Ecuador Galapagos Travels Team
