“The Evolution is a great size ship to tour the Galapagos. The cabin, food, snorkeling gear and crew were all in A1 shape. The naturalists, Christina and Walter were very knowledgeable about the islands, history and the animals. They made sure everyone got to see the amazing animals. So enjoyed snorkeling with the fish, sea lions, sea turtles, and even the sharks. I would encourage anyone to experience this awesome vacation.”

“Visiting the Galapagos with Quasar was a wonderful experience. The friendly capable crew met all of our needs. The expert naturalists made sure that everyone who wanted to experienced the wonder of the Galapagos and its animals. I would go back and do it all again in a heartbeat.”

“Quasar Expeditions is a fantastic company that really knows how to showcase and explore the Galapagos islands. The boats are small yet comfortable. The crew and guides provide the best island (read: animal viewing) tours and because of the boat size the places for snorkeling opportunities could not be better. Whether it was playing with sea lions underwater or swimming near penguins or watching courtship rituals with blue- green-and red-footed boobies (and so much more), Quasar Expeditions did it all. Do yourself a favor and go with the best! You'll be glad you did.”

“I highly recommend Quasar for anyone traveling to the Amazon/Galapagos. Diane and Paul's knowledge of the area and experience helped us make informed decisions tailored to our family. They were always available. patient, and candid in their guidance. The Evolution yacht in the Galapagos was perfect - cabins, public areas especially sun deck, food, crew. And, our naturalist guides, Sam and Walter, were readily available to share knowledge and help everyone enjoy the experience. We had a mixed age group ranging from 12 to 70+. The teenagers brought great fun to the experience. Daily schedule was excellent with at least 1 hike, snorkel, plus other activities each day, with time for an afternoon rest and cocktails on the sundeck before the daily naturalist presentation and dinner. Don't hesitate to travel with Quasar - you'll be very happy!!”

“What an amazing experience! There is nothing else in the world like the Galapagos Islands. Seeing the wildlife on the Grace yacht made it that extra bit special. The boat has history and you can feel it. It's a nice size, much smaller than many of the other boats visiting the islands. This makes the whole experience feel more special. The smaller boat also means a better guide to passenger ratio. And just seeing the profile of the yacht from the distance was an uplifting sight...Far better than any modern fiberglass boat. The service from the crew was exceptional. Every member of staff enjoyed what they were doing, all requests were gladly managed by the team. The quality of the food from such a limited galley was amazing. Rapha, the head guide, was the best guide we've ever had on a tour. He was knowledgable, funny and enthusatic. Head office communication was responsive and helpful. There was loads of information available and provided. You pay a bit more than some other alternatives, but it defintely felt like we were getting value for money despite the higher cost. Would definitely recommend.”

“Our week in the Galápagos on the Grace was an especially great trip because of the seamless support and professionalism of the ships guides and crew. The small yacht experience gave us maximum flexibility when hiking, snorkeling, or taking advantage of an unexpected creature sighting. The boat was comfortable...especially the outdoor spaces, and food, equipment, and guides were top notch. Our pre trip contact with the Quasar office was also very quick and efficient.”

“Every aspect of the travel experience with Quasar to the Galapagos Islands was taken care of from day 1 with Paul! From recommendations of hotels, length of stay, what to pack, what to buy (big time shopper), printed boarding passes, private dining and transfer services were all handled professionally and timely. I enjoyed 2 beautiful nights in the colonial city of Quito with a guide and then boarded the M/V Evolution for a 7 night cruise with some of the most amazing passengers I have ever met! All amenities, activities and meals as advertised were spectacular. I will never forget the naturalist guides, Boli and Samuel, and the crew - they truly went above and beyond my expectations!”

“One of the best vacations our family has taken to date! Everyone at Quasar was so attentive and making sure everyone, no matter the ages, were happy every step of the way. Even the captain of the Evolution promised to snorkel with the children to make sure they felt safe. They couldn't stop smiling and laughing all week at all the different animals they got to swim with and also the lazy sea lions on the beaches. Highly recommend this trip to families of animal lovers!”

“Unequivocally one of best active travel experiences we have had to date. We strongly recommend doing a back-to-back itinerary; the two weeks flew by. The staff of the Grace couldn't do enough for us. Superb meals, wonderful ambiance aboard, amazing snorkelling/hiking experiences -- a photographer/videographer's dream come true.”

“From the first contact with Quasar, we were impressed by their efficiency, knowledge, and pleasant style. This positive impression continued throughout our vacation. All planning moved smoothly. No glitches. The cruise itself and the Quasar crew helped make this the special trip that it was. No reservations in giving them a 5 star rating.”

“From being met at the airport, the hotel recommendation and booking in Old Town Quito to the experience on in our opinion, one of the most beautiful ships in the Galapagos, Quasar delivered hands down. Quasar is one of the higher end experiences in the Galapagos but it is absolutely beautiful. Top notch and attentive staff, great food, beautiful rooms and a graceful ship made for a great experience. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Quasar to anyone.”

“I am so glad that I chose Quasar for my Galapagos trip. The Evolution was a wonderful vessel. Cabins were lovely and it was very well maintained. The food was consistently excellent and they were very helpful catering to some of my food restrictions. Loved that there were so many Ecuadorian specialties. To a person, the crew was excellent. Helpful, professional, warm. And the naturalists, Sam Q and Walter C, were excellent. Really knowledgeable about the Islands and the animals and plants. Very patient answering all our questions. And they were fun to be around. They clearly had great passion for this very special place and were generous in sharing their knowledge with us. This was a bucket list trip for me and it exceeded my expectations. I would definitely travel with Quasar again”

“A terrific experience, as I stated to a friend, the trip of a life time for an inexperienced traveler. The accommodations cramped (today's standards) yet not to be missed. Management, crew, guide and captain superb knowledgeable, well versed and accessible. All other amenities very good appearing to be provided effortlessly. The physical tour was well guided, planned ( for the most part) of this jewel one to be treasured and valued for its flora, fauna island formations and certainly location. The country of Ecuador needs to continue with its efforts of protecting and cherishing this special area of the world. If I were an experienced traveler I may have rated this at 5 stars, having other adventures from which to judge, however this is not the case. I must say do not pass this up based upon my personal experience.”
