EXCELLENT Based on 114 reviews Posted on Tripadvisor NakokanVerified Buena relación calidad precio Buena relación calidad precio y ofrece una experiencia completaPosted on Tripadvisor Nancy MVerified 4 Galapagos Tours - All fantastic! Richard booked all 4 tours we went on. Based on our dates and what animals we wanted to see, he made great recommendations. He told us to do Daphne and not Pinzon and after meeting another family on the Daphne tour, she said Daphne is much better for families. We were well taken care of every step of the way - from taxi, to water taxi to tour guides and back to our hotels. Richard was always available to answer questions and he was very organized. We loved all our tours!! Pro tip: stay away from the front lower level od the inter-island ferry boats. They are all terrible. But there’s nothing anyone can do about that. Its first come - first served but Richard did let the captain know to give us preferential seating after our first terrible ride.Posted on Tripadvisor Dale R MarkowskiVerified Boat owner Daniel Rivera of the yacht ROAL in the Galapagos walks away after our horrible Pinzon Tour. Stay away. We just went on a pinzon and La Fe tour 5/26/26 that was set up by Choko Tours on 1/27/25. Choko then made a reservation with Galapagos Living. That individuals name is Richard. After I confirmed the booking I realized that I had booked the wrong date. I contacted Richard and he said he could get me another tour on the date I needed. So that individuals name and boat owner of the tour is Daniel Rivera. His boat is named ROAL. Richard booked this tour for us because his boat wasn’t available for the new date. Here's what happened. The boat has 3 outboard engines. As soon as we left port the middle engine is puffing out a smelly irritable white smoke. The boat has zero ventilation in the enclosed cabin. It also has an outside seating area from engines forward to the cabin area as most yachts do. Our eyes were burning. People felt sick light headed and headaches. We suffered for 2.5hrs in total. At our first stop La Fe after snorkeling and returning to the boat I found myself floating in a yellow foaming substance only to find out later that it was the leaking gas. Just before arriving at pinzon the engines quit. Luckily we were not on the high seas. The crew had to radio another boat to come tow us into the Bay Area. The crew had worked on the engine multiple times. After snorkeling there we had to double up on another boat to get back to port. This also happened. My buddy was sitting close to under the captains bird nest when the huge orange life buoy came loose and almost smacked him in the head. Mere inches. Daniel and Richard were waiting for us at the pier. Daniel, the boat owner didn't even want to hear about our horrible experience and a need for some kind of refund. He just walked away. Richard had to call him back to at least hear what we had to say and requested. We then made the decision to go to the tourismo govt office and filed a complaint against the boat owner. After informing Christian of Choko Tours about the horrible events he in turn contacted Richard of Living Galapagos. After they spoke they both agreed on refunding us some money of our monies, which was very honorable, since it wasn't even their boat. They just made the booking. They stood behind their reputations. On the other hand Daniel just snubbed us even after I went back into town to show him the paperwork I was going to file with the tourismo office. He just rode away on his scooter. Not the kind a man we would do future business with. We would not hesitate to book with Choko tours or Galápagos living again. If you can do it, the windrose yacht which we did for two days, was booked with Choko tours and we absolutely loved it. Kudos. Daniel and his BOAT ROAL we could do without. Later that evening we ran into another individual who was on the tour told us he too contacted his tour agent about the experience and was refunded some money, but not from Daniel. Stay away from owners who don’t back up their product when something BAD happens.Posted on Tripadvisor Quest22368718878Verified あまり期待しすぎない方がいい ガイドさんは親切でツアーはそれなりに楽しかった。もっとも、泳いでいるアシカに興味があると伝え、予約の際にマンタや泳いでいるアシカが見れると言われたが、見えたのは魚と数匹のサメのみ。陸でも主に見えたのはガラパゴス蟹という、あまりツアーに参加した意味もなかった(サンタクルス島のビーチで個人でシュノーケリングをしていてもサメやマンタは見えた)。ボートも途中でエンジンが故障したらしく、午後3時にサンタクルス島に帰りつくと言われていたが、着いたのは午後5時30分を過ぎていた。Posted on Tripadvisor Eduardo VVerified Honestidad Llegamos buscando un traje para snorkel, nos dijo que no necesitábamos ese traje para donde íbamos y nos terminó dando uno donde si que lo necesitábamos. Un tour buenísimo, con un precio razonable.ñ, tenía otros tomados al llegar a la isla y el tour de las 5 islas, Pinzón y demás fue increíble, vimos de todo, tiburones, rayas, delfines, tortugas... Lo único que quedó pendiente fue el pulpo. Tomé otro tour con Richard y lamentablemente se me repetía, él sin pensarlo resolvió dándome un tour muy bueno y diferente para no repetir el día, fue genial, realmente la honestidad y transparencia se vivió y sintió. Muchas gracias Richard por todo, saludos desde Chile!Posted on Tripadvisor Mi mundo en una maletaVerified Un tour de 10 con una agencia super recomendable Una experiencia de 10. El tour es fantástico y todo el personal es de 10. Todo el snorkel fue maravilloso y el rato de playa muy relajante. Richard el responsable, estuvo muy atento antes, durante y después. Súper recomendablePosted on Tripadvisor Giuliana TVerified Mi experiencia con Galápagos Living Mi familia y yo llegamos a la isla Santa Cruz sin ningún tour comprado previamente ni itinerarios fijos, así que preguntamos en diversas agencias y terminamos adquiriendo el tour de un día en Galápagos Living. El personal fue súper amable en todo momento. Richard, quien nos atendió, nos recomendó los lugares que sí o sí debíamos visitar durante nuestra estadía en la isla, y ¡qué bueno que seguimos sus recomendaciones! El tour salió a la hora prevista y se desarrolló sin contratiempos. Los traslados fueron efectivos, los guías amables y nos dieron el tiempo suficiente en cada parada para disfrutar a cabalidad. Realmente, fue una experiencia inolvidable. En nuestro último día en la isla, decidimos visitar la Estación Científica Charles Darwin y Richard nos ayudó incluso con la compra de entradas. Sobra decir que fue un gran apoyo durante los dos días y medio que pasamos en Santa Cruz. Gracias a Galápagos Living y a su personal por ayudarnos en todo momento. =)Posted on Tripadvisor David CVerified An Amazing Trip! Galapagos Living organized a western island cruise itinerary for a week. It was absolutely fabulous! The wild life on land included boobies, frigates, land and marine iguanas, and tortoises to name a few. Underwater was even more spectacular with manta rays, sea lions, turtles, diving cormorants, octopus, sharks and fish. It was just an overwhelming trip that exceeded all expectations. Richard was very helpful in booking the cruise and assisted us with other arrangements. I highly recommend Galapagos Living!Posted on Tripadvisor Melissa HVerified Family travel Prior to heading to the Galapagos we had researched all the places we wanted to see, but had read online to wait and book with some of the local agencies as 3rd party agencies were charging 30-40% more for the same tours. We could not be more thankful for the help we received in booking 5 different excursions. The staff was knowledgeable and did not try to sell us but rather provided accurate information that was best suited for us traveling with a 1 yr old and 7 yr old. They also provided our 7 yr old with kid snorkeling equipment and life jacket as a lot of the boats don't carry stuff for kids. And they made sure to assist the morning of with meeting in the right spot. Every excursion we went on we had amazing guides and very friendly captains who while we were snorkeling made the trips just as fun for my 1 yr old daughter by feeding the fish so she could see them too. I cannot recommend this place enough and will use them again when we returnPosted on Tripadvisor Getaway520058Verified Unforgettable Experience Our tour operator, Galapagos Living, went above and beyond to make our trip enjoyable. They picked us up at our Airbnb location, we stopped to have, breakfast, then headed to our meeting area to board the boat. Wetsuits and snorkel gear were provided on the boat. We snorkeled in 2 different locations. The first location was shallower and perfect for spotting Sea Turtles. We could see them feeding, and they would closely pass us when swimming. After our first snorkel spot, we had sweet bread, watermelon, and packadged cookies and crackers for a snack. We headed to our 2nd location, which had deeper water to Sea Lions, which also swam very close to us, their pups, White tipped Sharks, schools of colorful fish, a Stingray, large Starfish and a few more turtles. We had a delicious lunch of salad, rice and fresh fish. It was a once in a lifetime experience!
