Galapagos Cruise Reviews
- Galapagos Cruise - South East Islands in 4 Days aboard the Monserrat
Everything was excellent. The guides were excellent, the cruise was excellent. I only wish I booked a longer cruise. Couple concerns with the website for the actual booking. First, it said the flight to Galapagos was included, and then added $500 for the flight. Secondly, there was no mention about Insurance being required until the very end, and it was very complicated to actually get the insurance set up. Because of these two things, the actual price for the tour wound up being over $1000 more than initially advertised.
- Galapagos Cruise - Discover Central, East & South Islands in 8 Days aboard the Monserrat

- Galapagos Cruise - Central, West, East & South Islands in 12 Days aboard the Monserrat
Tour was excellent, crew and guides well qualified and friendly. On-board safety and environmental management of high standard. Real value for money.
