- YCYu· March 4th, 2025In 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.Show moreResponsible Travel South America commented on this reviewHello Yu Chen, Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

- Katie· February 14th, 2025Very 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.

- LALaura· February 11th, 2025Big thanks to our tour operator Diego in Ecuador. He was absolutely outstanding in organising everything, quick responce to any enquiry we had . Diego went out of his way to retrieve and send our delayed luggage to Galapagos and deliver to our hotel. He made our holidays very enjoyable and stress free. We felt taken care of.

- NGNesrien· January 15th, 2025The hotel the tour operator put our family in was completely unacceptable. The front desk didn’t speak English, we had to communicate with google translate and that’s only when their wifi worked. The rooms were bare and the whole place was run down. Sometimes we didn’t have hot water and at one point no water at all. We asked to move to one of the many other hotels in Puerto Ayora but she refused, instead offering a hotel 15 mins away by taxi in a remote area with nothing around it. The tours were good but they were all half day tours, with only one exception which was the tour to the island. We could’ve fit much more into the time. The tour operator is well intentioned but inexperienced with American travelers. For this reason I do not recommend this tour.Show moreResponsible Travel South America commented on this reviewHello Mrs. Geerges, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

- MFM· December 18th, 2024My husband and I booked this trip to celebrate our anniversary and we had such an amazing time! Diego, our travel coordinator was very friendly and helpful, always keeping us on track and there to answer any questions we had. The Ilatoa Lodge is a hidden gem. Marcello and family were so welcoming and kind, and happy to help coordinate anything we needed. Enjoy your morning coffee enjoying the magical landscape and beautiful humming birds that frequent the garden. Bring a lot of cash with you. Almost everywhere in Santa Cruz takes credit cards, but vendors will typically upcharge for usage. When you get to Isabela - everywhere is CASH ONLY - we could not find a single place that took cards. There are ATMs, but they are not reliable so don't depend on being able to use them. Make sure you bring more sunscreen than you think you will need. You can buy more at any of the pharmacies once you get to the Galapagos, but it will be much more expensive so come prepared. Hats and sunglasses are a must. I also highly recommend a wetsuit or a rash guard shirt for snorkeling as the water can be chilly! Wet suits can typically be rented on town. Some other helpful tip: - On Day 2 (when you arrive to the Galapagos) - if you get the chance to drop your bags off at the hotel prior to going to the Darwin Center - DO IT. You will have to walk about a mile each way, so you don't want anything heavy with you. - Eat at the Santa Cruz Brewery and 1835 on Santa Cruz. The food was amazing. - For the beach day -- the hike to the beach is a HIKE. It is about 45 mins over an uneven so wear comfortable shoes. cobblestone pathShow moreResponsible Travel South America commented on this reviewHi Megan, Thank you so much for your detailed and thoughtful review!

- CWCassandra· January 31st, 2024Hi! We love TourRadar. We had the best experience in the Galapagos islands. The communication with Jefferson was excellent from day one. He returned messages quickly along with several answers to questions that we had as this was our first time using a tour agency. Everything went smooth, and as printed in the itinerary. we are looking at our next-door and looking at TourRadar as I write. The hotels in the Galapagos were in town and walking distance to the beach, restaurants, activities, and super centrally located. However, the hotel in Ecuador was up on a hill and in a locked area. The place was nice. The grounds are beautiful, however, food and ability to sightsee or just take a walk or Prohibited. When I’ve loved to seen Ecuador and do plan to go back and spend some time in the city and see the marketplace and be able to walk around. All folks throughout the Galapagos islands were extremely friendly, helpful and kind. The treatment of humans and wildlife is superb and we all could learn from them.
