What an experience we had on board the Cormorant II with Royal Galapagos. This has to be the best boat and crew in the Galápagos Islands. From our Captain Jaime to our Cruise Director Ricardo to our Guide Fabian, the entire crew provided us with outstanding service. We loved the itinerary 8-day cruise "B" and left the boat only wanting more. Hopefully we get the chance to return to Galapagos someday and if we do, we will be on the Cormorant II.
Dear James,
We are so happy to hear that you had a great experience on board the Cormorant II. We are proud and grateful to have a team and guides so committed always ready to make our guests feel comfortable and welcome.
We will be very eager to have you back and welcome you with open arms to continue exploring the Galapagos Islands.
Kind regards,
Royal Galapagos Team
We couldn’t have asked for a better travel experience! Our family group of 7 adults toured the Galapagos on the Grand Majestic. It was a beautiful boat, with attentive crew and a friendly and knowledgable naturalist. The food was very good and we did not go hungry! We had a 3 night itinerary and were able to see so much in a short time. Highly recommend!
Dear Laura,
We are so glad that our crew, food, and service met your expectations and that you enjoyed the itinerary you chose. We always endeavor to offer the best to our guests.
Thank you for your valuable recommendation. It was a real pleasure to be a part of this memorable trip.
Kind regards,

My wife and I took our 12-year-old granddaughter on an 8-day cruise in the Galapagos on M/T Horizon and five days at Sacha Lodge in the Ecuadorian Amazon. Royal Galapagos made all the arrangements, and representative Lorena Freire did a splendid job making sure all connections worked smoothly. Christian, our guide in Guayaquil, and Giovanni, our host in Quito, appeared on time and made us feel safe and welcomed, showing us around these lively, colorful, and clean cities and feeding us tasty local cuisine. The naturalist guides on Horizon and at Sacha Lodge, Fabian and Geranio respectively, gave us the benefit of their decades of experience in finding and interpreting the landscapes and wildlife of these unique environments. M/T Horizon and Sacha Lodge were both marvelously comfortable and accommodating to our tenderfoot needs while providing convenient access to the wild and exotic tropical islands and rain forest.
In our case at least, our granddaughter was the perfect age to appreciate the wonders of this beautiful, unspoiled country while successfully navigating the challenges of international travel (and helping us oldsters along too). We had no problems at all with health or insects, and the one minor medical issue, a cut on my wife's finger, was healed by "Sangre de Drago" tree sap harvested on the spot by Geranio. We will long remember the superb snorkeling in the Galapagos and the amazingly diverse wildlife in both locations.
Dear Bob,
We are thrilled to hear that your trip was truly the experience of a lifetime, and we’re honored to have been a part of it. Ecuador is a country of diverse landscapes, activities, and flavors, each region offering something unique. We’re confident that your journey was both enriching and memorable, thanks to our experienced guides who are passionate about sharing their knowledge with our guests. Lorena will be delighted to hear that everything she planned for you went perfectly.
We hope that you, your wife, and your granddaughter have created many cherished memories that you’ll hold close to your hearts.
Kind regards,
Royal Galapagos Team
This itinerary allowed us to see so much wildlife. The crew was incredibly accommodating, and our naturalist was extremely knowledgeable. The food was fantastic, and the pacing of the entire trip was just the right balance between activities and down time. Our sales representative was helpful and quickly responded to all of our questions. She was also able to assist us in booking airport transport to our hotel and a day trip within Quito. I would highly recommend this company, and the Natural Paradise to anyone who is considering a Galapagos trip

The Galapagos angel boat was fantastic. The staff were all very helpful and friendly. The food was amazing and the rooms were quite spacious with comfortable beds. Our kids loved the hot tub on the upper deck. We had a great guide and every day the venue was booked with walks, small hikes and lots of snorkeling. Whether you’re with a family or a couple, this is an amazing cruise to book. Wish we had a few more days to go to Isabella island and the south islands
