  For my 60th birthday, my husband took me to the Galápagos Islands. Because it is a National Park, you have to be accompanied by a certified naturalist guide, so we... read more chose the tour group Natural Habitat. It was wonderful. We did a very active tour, with hiking, snorkeling and kayaking every day from a 72 foot catamaran. There were 2 naturalists, 7 crew members and 10 tourists (total). The guides were a fount of information, helpful and fun to be around. The snorkeling was a major highlight. We swam with sea turtles, sea lions and tons of fish. The experience as amazing, and I cannot recommend it any higher

We could choose the hotel, and change one day's activity from snorkeling to hiking to the volcano. Also, the team was very helpful to give us all-time support on the chat app, it made us feel secure throughout the five days.

  We booked the Galapagos Passion Luxury Cruise through Rodrigo at Galapagos Natural Life. Rodrigo was extremely helpful, explained all of the options and gave us the best rates we could... read more find (which we knew as we had checked with other tour agencies). He organised everything perfectly including the salvaconducto required and made sure to tell us to print documents (we saw other people struggling in the airport who had not realised they needed to do this!). He also has contacts to ensure you can take a covid test to enter the Galapagos as required. The Passion cruise was absolutely amazing and we saw all the animals that we wanted to see (including sea lions, tortoises, plenty of the birds, sea turtles, penguins and even a snake!). We were so glad we booked with Rodrigo as everything was perfect including our dietary requirements. He even got us a cheaper deal for the flights! There are lots of options available here which we were able to review before we picked the Passion cruise. Rodrigo is also easily contactable so if you have any questions he is happy to help out. I would definitely recommend this agency if you are looking for a cruise around the Galapagos! …

Literally as we were walking out the door to go to the airport our cruise was canceled..Rodrigo was on it every step of the way.. he stayed in constant contact with us... always lining up our options and making recommendations based on his experience.. he has a connection everywhere! He took care of us every step of the way, even arranging COVID testing at our hotel and again at the airport to go home.
When he told us initially that our cruise was canceled I was ready to say forget it. I am so glad we went ahead.
We did 14 days on the Passion Yacht, the Eastern and Western itineraries. It was amazing, from the crew to the guide and of course the amazing sites, landscapes and wild life. Every detail is handled. Get on the boat and forget everything else. Food is fantastic, everyone we encountered was so friendly. I look forward to returning and I would not let anyone else handle our trip other than Rodrigo and his team

  The Galapagos are amazing! We hired the Ocean Spray to be our home for five days/four nights. I was with my same sex partner and had spent the... read more previous three weeks in Peru where we felt welcome at every one of the hotels/boats/excursions. The experience on the Ocean Spray was not that. While our guide was amazing (Morris!!!), the rest of the staff was not only aloof, but sometimes rude. Ugh! After eating for three weeks at very nice restaurants and on board the Aqua Nera in the Amazon, the food on board was "okay"/"average". And the final insult was on the second to last day....when the tips are outlined. We were on the boat for four days and were told that the tips expected would be $400 for the staff and $200 for our guide. The $200 for the guide...no problem. But the $400 for the staff...for four days? Totally inappropriate and I was sorely disappointed. I left $100. Yes, I overpaid based on our experience, but wanted to leave something. c'est la vie.

  Rodrigo was extremely helpful in finding us a last minute tour to explore the islands! Everything was arranged well and we had an excellent experience.

Hotel was very comfortable with a beautiful sight of the sea. Also I visited Bartolomé Island, Tortuga Bay beach and Bahía de los Perros.

Food was delicious at the entire island and Angermeyer restaurant is one of a kind.

People in the islands are very kind and is 100% secure to travel despide of the coronavirus. Security is amazing cause there aren’t robbers.

I totally recommend this experience!!

  We just finished a 6-day cruise booked with Rodrigo from Natural Life. It was an amazing cruise aboard the Alya Yacht. Everything was perfect, from the expert guide to... read more the food. Oh my gosh the food was fantastic. The chef used to work at one of the top hotels in Quito and each meal was gourmet using local fresh ingredients. We had ceviche twice, tuna, filet mignon, shrimp, and more. The staff aboard was so nice, and everything was planned for us. We kayaked, snorkeled everyday, hiked, and more. We saw so many different animals. We swam with dolphins, turtles, sea lions, and sharks. Our guide, Luis, was so knowledgeable and had a wonderful sense of humor. We had so much fun! I wholeheartedly recommend this trip.

Rodrigo from Natural Life was outstanding and held our hands the whole way — booking our cruise, securing our hotel rooms, getting our salvoconducto documents, and arranging our Covid tests. He was quick to reply to all my questions at all hours. He clearly is customer service focused.
