Sep 25, 2025Boat was great
The Galapagos Angel exceeded all our expectations. The yacht is elegant, with a European design that shows in every detail. Our suite had stunning panoramic windows and the lower beds (not bunks) were a brilliant touch for my husband and me. The crew was incredibly attentive and the naturalist guide taught us things we would never have discovered on our own. We would go back without hesitation!

We traveled as a family with two kids and the Galapagos Angel was perfect for us. The cabins are spacious, the yacht is very stable (thanks to the stabilizers), and the family atmosphere on board is unique. The kids loved the snorkeling and kayaking. The Jacuzzi on the sundeck was the perfect ending to every excursion. An unforgettable experience for the whole family!

Sep 25, 2025Easy way to discover the city
We did the 8-day itinerary and it was simply spectacular. We visited islands that seemed from another world: the blue-footed boobies on North Seymour, the frigatebirds on Genovesa, the giant tortoises on Santa Cruz... Every day was a new surprise. The guide was an expert in wildlife and always willing to answer our questions. The yacht, impeccable. Without a doubt, the best way to discover Galápagos.

I wasn't expecting the food on board to be this good. Every dish was carefully prepared and there were options for every taste. The yacht is extremely comfortable, with spacious areas and a perfect sundeck to relax after excursions. The team's attention was first-class, always making sure we had everything we needed. The Galapagos Angel is, without a doubt, a first-class yacht.
