Bridie - 10 day Galapagos Adventure Tour - 2025

In a word, our guides were PHENOMENAL. I can't say enough about both. Pablo was so knowledgeable and experienced and his passion for the islands just shone through. Paolo was a warm, kind, steady, constant always one step ahead of everything and anticipating our needs and wants - he just took such good care of us all and made sure we had everything we needed.

Debbie - 6-day Land Galapagos Tour - 2025

We just returned from an incredible 6-day Galapagos tour with Galakiwi, and it was absolutely AMAZING! The accommodations were beautiful, the food was fantastic, and the wildlife, Wow! We saw everything: sea lions, turtles, penguins, sharks, iguanas, blue-footed boobies, you name it, it was there. Our guide Pepo was outstanding, sharing fascinating information and making the experience fun and engaging. Debbie 6-day Land Galapagos Tour - 2025

Jennifer - Customized Family Galapagos Adventure - 2025

We recently traveled as a family of five to the incredible islands of Santa Cruz, Isabela, and San Cristóbal, and words can hardly capture how extraordinary our trip was! Every day felt like stepping into a wildlife documentary: we swam with graceful sea turtles, sleek sharks, and gentle stingrays, spotted adorable penguins up close, and watched sea lions lounging casually around town like friendly neighbors. Jennifer Customized Family Galapagos Adventure - 2025

David - Customized Accessible Tour - 2025

For a wheelchair user, the idea of traveling in the Galapagos seemed impossible. Galakiwi made it happen - the complete adventure with all the wildlife, natural history, and experiences! We were able to do much, much more than we thought possible. This was the trip of a lifetime.

Michelle - 8 day Galapagos Family Tour - 2025

I would very highly recommend Galakiwi. They were reliable, responsive, patient, informative, and attentive. Our tour guide was tremendously knowledgeable and earnest about his love of the Galapagos. Because of his enthusiasm and focus, we saw innumerable gorgeous wildlife and sites. I am extremely happy we chose Galakiwi. We had an outstanding trip we will always cherish. Michelle 8 day Galapagos Family Tour - 2025

Tanja - Customized Family Galapagos Adventure - 2025

Our family of 7, ages 18-82 years old, went on a 9 day land based trip and had an amazing experience! Our planners were great in matching beautiful and clean accommodations and a diversity of activities to our families needs. They were very helpful and prompt on planning. We couldn't have asked for better planners and they gave us everything we needed to feel well prepared. Tanja Customized Family Galapagos Adventure - 2025

Krista Whitley - 10 day Galapagos Adventure Tour - May 2024

Pablo (our guide) is the Steve Irwin of Ecuador and Karen at Galakiwi offered 24/7, 365 concierge customer service. Truly an exceptional experience from booking to completion that left our family with new life long friends. I cannot recommend Galakiwi highly enough!
