Gary Aug, 2024 VerifiedWe had had an amazing 2 weeks in Peru. This trip was the icing on the cake!! It went far beyond on our expectations.... The Galapagos on their own are spellbounding, but when it is shared with you by enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly people it makes for a truly amazing and humbling experience. I would recommend this trip to everyone. Experienced, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Comfortable accomodation and from start to finish we were collected, put down and given all the information we needed to make it a stress free experience.
