Amazing trip. Would recommend. The amount of time spent with sea lions and turtles and just the wildlife here is incredible. Book it !

There was always something to do. Sandra accommodated our needs

In first a couple of days, there are some issues. I was fallen down at Lava Tunnel and my arm was hurting due to the local tour guide didn’t pay enough attention on safety in this activity. Later Diego in Santa Cruz Island and Julio in Isabela Island worked hard to keep things smoothly. I enjoyed my time in this beautiful island very much, I appreciate both Diego and Julio’s help. I also think the itinerary could be improved as there are two free days in this tour, I have to purchase other day trips to fill up these two free days.

Very well organised and takes you to the best places in Santa Cruz and Isabela. The guides were all lovely and on time with good knowledge. I think it works out cheaper than doing it on your own because a lot of the day trips there are $100-140 and they were all included for us :) highly recommend!

What a wonderful trip!!! As an older solo traveler and the only one on the trip, I was truly treated like a VIP. The guides, the communication from the home office, and all the staff were terrific! The itinerary was extremely well-curated and I saw everything I wanted to see and more. Thank you for making this bucket list adventure a wonderful reality!! Your customer service is the best!!!

Had a great time. Tours were a lot of fun.

Our holiday was great. We experienced so many wonderful animals, food and people. The accommodation was okay. The casa de Nelly was incredible as was the red booby hotel but the blue house was loud, smelled an awful lot like sewage, was uncomfortable and overall, unprepared. Our drivers were knowledgeable but often late picking us up. We did enjoy the freedom to roam and explore untied to a group.

Our stay started badly with so many cockroaches in our room that we had to ask to change rooms. This was accommodated, but was greeted with rolled eyes. Coffee was promised to be available from 6am but was never available before 7am. Our guide seemed disinterested and spent all her time in the back of the boat, a lot of that time she was on her phone. She'd say the name of a bird but sometimes not tell us where to look. She didn't have a laser pointer to help us find things. We were left behind on one one excursion and made to feel bad for the miscommunication. When our clothes got soaked in a downpour we were made to feel bad for asking for the use of a dryer to get them dry in time for leaving the next day. On multiple instances we overheard staff and the manager were talking about us disparagingly in Spanish, but my friend speaks Spanish so was able to understand them. There's a schedule of 3 days of activities so no point staying any longer than that. Overall, we felt uncomfortable most of the time. We didn't see a lot of wildlife. We felt like we were an annoyance, not guests. Massively disappointing.

Overall good, the guide was sweet but lacked passion and enthusiasm, very soft spoken

The tour group was only 6 and we got on well. A great start. Saw almost everything we wanted to, including a group of Orcas on our personal boat going from Floreana to Isabell. Great snorkelling. So 6 people plus one experienced guide going around the Islands and staying on land every night - compared to being on the same boat with a 100 other people. No contest.

The wildlife in all venues (esp humming birds, orcas, giant tortoises, iguanas); Quito old town; free time to explore on our own; Quechua family visit; atmosphere in Otavalo esp bumping into the Christmas carnival unexpectedly.

Almost too many to list! It felt like two holidays with machu Piccu followed by the Galapagos .. For Peru it was - The sacred valley and the trip to Machu Piccu itself - The food throughout was excellent - Cusco was a fabulous city - and the people lovely For The Galapagos - Snorkelling - the turtles, penguins and sea lions who joined you - The animals - tortoises, pelicans, iguanas and birds galore - Final highlight was seeing a pod of over 100 dolphins playing around our boat.

This was an excellent vacation. The activities were varied and always fascinating, the boat, meals and crew were wonderful and the guide Carlos was super accessible and knowledgeable. Transfers were smooth and well organized as well the intervened to get us on an earlier flight when there was a delay in our flights - even without us calling for help.

My tour, the Galapagos Island Hopping, was excellent. The tour guide was fantastic, very knowledgeable and adaptable. The itinerary was great too. Highly recommend this tour, but add another couple of days to visit other islands on your own too.

Where to begin….this 14-day Ecuador/Amazon/Galapagos trip was AMAZING and exceeded our expectations. An extremely professional company from the minute we inquired about this Active tour, adding a 2 day extension to our Galapagos portion and bringing us back to Quito, we can’t say enough great things about Diego who organized the tour for us. We booked last minute Dec 2, 2024 and decided to make it a 3 week trip with exploring Mindo cloud forest on our own (which we also highly recommend) and left Canada on Dec 31st! Jorge, our amazing and professional, friendly guide took us on a 5 day Ecuador mainland loop that included mountain biking in Banos, river rafting in the Amazon (super spectacular) and many a hike along the way. Jorge’s knowledge about absolutely everything brought new knowledge to us about beautiful Ecuador. We always felt safe and cared for. Jorge became a friend who we hope to see again in the future. When it came to our departure from Quito to Galapagos, Milton made sure we passed through the gates at the airport with all the Galapagos requirements and all went as smooth as can be. When we landed in San Cristobal we were met by our beautiful, intelligent and amazing Indira! AJ sure knows how to pick their guides…as all of them become our friends and family so quickly. Highlights were plentiful: Kicker Rock snorkelling with hammerheads, rays, sea turtles; sea lions now have a special place with us; Isabela Isl with it’s Sierra Negra crater hike; biking to Wall of Tears and seeing the huge tortoises in the wild; Santa Cruz’s Tortuga Bay - stunning! El Chato tortoise reserve….can’t fit it all in this space. The accommodations and food were all very good as well. Thank you, AJ, for giving us the time of our lives. We will be back for sure!

We had a number of different guides but it was very well organized and everyone was on time. It seemed like the schedule changed several times and there was at times a number of activities in one day. We walked uphill in the morning and then snorkeling and more walking in the afternoon. Would have liked to have had things stretched out a bit more. You can of course opt out of activities. Navigating to the hotels is no problem from anywhere in town. The first hotel was a very nice facility but the street light was at the height of the room and could keep you awake. The staff all spoke English and were very helpful. The second hotel was a bit worn. The staff did not speak English,

This is a relaxed yet full itinery, a great introduction to Equador , accomadation , guides, varied landscapes, with insights culture , surperb trip by Gadventured.

This tour exceeded my expectations. We were shown some truly amazing locations in Ecuador. Our guide (Franklin Vinansaca ) was informative and always generous with his time. He had a genuine affection for this country that infected everyone on this tour. So many "WOW" moments in such a short period of time!

This is a well organised tour and I really enjoyed it. For each trip was a different tour guide and they were all very professional and very knowledgeable. Galapagos is so beautiful and I got to see so many animals, from giant tortoise to sea lion and colourful fish in the ocean. I highly recommend this tour and will definitely do it again.

It was an amazing trip. The programme was well designed to see as much as possible in a few days. The accomodation was not great, but reasonable for the price. The staff at the hotel was really nice and helpful. They even assisted my husband when he needed to see a doctor. Each programme had a different guide, some were excellent, but at one of the snorkelling trips the guide left me and my kids simply behind - we are good swimmers, but could not keep up. The transfer back to the hotel

One of the most interesting places I have been to. Our guide and driver were excellent. We learned so much about the area history and environment from our guide, Andres. He provided many good recommendations on which museums, restaurants, and other places to visit as options on the tour. We were very pleased with his recommendations and help. If I did the tour again, I might splurge on the pricier hotel room package. The basic package was a really good hotel though, very clean and good breakfast but directly across from hostels and lacking amenities like a full restaurant, lounge, etc. However, there is a chinese restaurant across the street that was delicious.

BM Tours, thanks for making our dreams come true! Galapagos was amazing, so many memories. Hasta la proxima vez
