“Great Galapagos experience. Environment and snorkeling were amazing. Staff was attentive. Food was fine. Would definitely do it again, but internet policy was restrictive and toilet paper policy was off-putting.”

Dear Guest, Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your Galapagos experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the snorkeling, and our attentive staff. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve our services. We're excited to announce that starting in 2024, Wi-Fi will be included as part of all our Galapagos cruises, enhancing your experience with us. We understand the importance of staying connected, even while enjoying the natural beauty of the Galapagos. Regarding the toilet paper policy, we genuinely appreciate your understanding. This measure, though slightly inconvenient, is crucial for protecting the delicate marine ecosystem of the Galapagos. We're committed to maintaining a balance between guest comfort and environmental conservation. Additionally, please be assured that our cabin bathrooms are cleaned three times a day to ensure the highest level of cleanliness and comfort for our guests. We look forward to welcoming you aboard again for another great adventure, now with the added convenience of Wi-Fi! Warm regards, ~ The Quasar Customer Service Team

“Our experience with Quasar was outstanding. They helped arrange every detail of the trip, which included two extra nights prior to boarding the cruise ship. They arranged the hotels, shuttles and excursions. Stress-free travel is always appreciated and they definitely took care of us. When one of the hotel stays resulted in a pretty significant inconvenience, Quasar spoke with the hotel manager and got us a full refund. That was unexpected but very much appreciated. The planning of the trip also included multiple calls prior to departing to ensure that all travel details had been accounted for, including food allergies and profile preferences. I appreciated their attention to detail. The trip was fabulous and we were able to focus on and enjoy the experience fully, and didn't have to worry at all about travel logistics. I highly recommend Quasar. W.S. 11/14/2023”

“Don't hesitate to book this trip! We chose Quasar at the recommendation of a well-traveled friend who took this trip aboard The Evolution earlier this year. We also read Cruise Critic reviews, watched Quasar's videos and spoke at length with Diane at Quasar. From our first phone call with Diane up until our "welcome home" phone call, we were given the highest level of service and care. Quasar exceeded our expectations. The communication, packing list, itinerary were top notch. The Evolution has 21 crew members and a very high ratio of crew to guests. We are grateful for every single crew member from Captain Victor to the behind-the-scenes folks who made everything work smoothly. Andrea, the concierge was always available for help and guidance. Kudos to the chef - the food is spectacular - lots of options, lots of fresh salads, vegetables, meat, fish, local cuisine and desserts. Every meal was a delight and delicious. The service is seamless - from the moment our luggage was collected at embarkation to the delivery of our luggage to our departure. Where to begin to describe the 3 naturalists? Bolo, Cornelia and Christina taught us so much about everything we were experiencing. They were interesting, fun and incredibly knowledgable. Each night we had briefing which was fun and informative. These professionals were so kind and supportive whenever we needed help and took the time to get to know us individually. This is very robust trip and the most "active vacation" we've ever taken. For every excursion, we had a choice to be as active as we felt comfortable. The guides were helpful every step of the way, recommending when we might need a walking stick, whether is was a wet or dry landing, which shoes to wear and what type of terrain we would encounter in order to manage our expectations. The emphasis on guest safety and attention to detail is very comforting. The excursions were fantastic and the crew and guides helped on and off the pangas with tremendous care. The proximity to animals is breathtaking. Snorkeling with turtles, sea lions, sharks, colorful fish is amazing.”

“This was our 2nd trip with Quasar because of their superb quality, customer service and attention to detail. Working with Tasha on our Patagonia/Chile trip was above and beyond. She spent an inordinate amount of time in helping us through some personal pre-trip problems and a possible trip cancellation or postponement. So very kind and caring. The hotels booked were wonderful, with every one having a super comfortable bed, and now we really can't wait to get back to Argentina & Chile. Safe, great wine and fab food. Truly an exceptional trip. Also, Quasar's ground support is constantly monitoring your trip and have thought of everything, so you always feel safe. Finally, their guides are knowledgeable, caring, and willing to adjust to your preferences, and can't be beat. A luxury experience all around.”

“We’ve been fortunate to travel with Quasar to Galapagos in 2016 and Patagonia this October 2023. Our decision to choose Quasar again was based on our incredible previous experiences. You get what you pay for with Quasar. They are into the details and the level of service is top-notch! From booking your trip, selecting an itinerary, prompt responses. and even an amazing follow-up after your trip! The staff was great, and all our guides had incredible knowledge and knew how to make the trips adventurous & fun as well! The ships in Galapagos are unique & beautiful, and the accommodations in Patagonia will spoil you.”

“We were awed by the Galápagos Islands! It was definitely one of our most memorable destinations. Highlights were the snorkeling activities and the giant tortoises! I was a little disappointed that as this trip was scheduled to celebrate my birthday, the crew didn’t announce it to our group(as they had done for two others earlier in the week). Perhaps there was some confusion as the outgoing cruise director was letting the cruise director the following week take over some of his duties. Just wanted to mention the omission. Other than that, we were very satisfied with the trip and have recommended Quasar to our friends.”

Dear Sarah & Gary, Thank you so much for your review and for choosing Quasar Expeditions to explore the enchanting Galapagos Islands. We're thrilled to hear that you were captivated by the activities and the magical wildlife on the Islands. These experiences are indeed what make the Galapagos an unforgettable destination. We sincerely apologize for the oversight regarding your birthday celebration. It sounds like there was indeed a bit of confusion during the transition between our cruise directors. We understand how special these personal touches are, especially when commemorating an occasion like a birthday, and we're sorry we missed the opportunity to celebrate with you. Your feedback is invaluable and we'll be using it to refine our processes to ensure a seamless handover in the future. It's heartening to know that despite this hiccup, you had a satisfying trip and would recommend us to your friends. We hope to welcome you aboard again, perhaps for another milestone celebration or just another adventure in the beautiful corners of South America. We would love another opportunity to make your experience truly exceptional, from start to finish. Warmest regards, ~ The Quasar Customer Service Team

“Quasar is a class act with tremendous staff, excellent food, wonderful accommodations. The excursions were amazing: hiking, snorkeling and/or kayaking, typically at least 2 out of 3 activities each day. The wildlife was absolutely unforgettable. The staff was super helpful before, during, and after our trip to make sure all details were covered.”

“The cruise was wonderful. The snorkeling opportunities were exceptional and I liked that others could go along in the boat even if they chose not to snorkel. The food was more exceptional than I even anticipated. Having a different local seafood option every night was awesome! I did anticipate more hiking opportunities. I would have liked to explore the islands more, rather than just a beach. The crew did a great job with boat and room maintenance and were always very helpful. I do feel that an altered schedule would have been helpful. Having dinner around 6 would allow people to choose options after dinner: naturalist presentation, games and socializing, quiet time in our room. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!”

“Everything about this trip was amazing from the location to the crew to the other passengers. The mix of activities and relaxing time was perfect, even with my dietary restrictions the food was exceptional. If you can only afford 1 trip like this in your lifetime- this is the trip to take. My daughter and I will cherish our memories for years to come.”

“We are very happy with our choice of Quasar. We traveled on the 32-passenger Evolution. Any trip to the Galapagos is likely to be awe-inspiring but Quasar made our trip amazing. Both pre-trip and during our time in the Galapagos, everyone at Quasar was attentive to details and our specific interests and needs. The small group numbers allowed for a better appreciation of the natural surroundings and abundant wildlife. Our guides were fantastic both because of their in-depth knowledge of the flora and fauna as well as because of their ability to share that knowledge. There were several special experiences but one really fun impromptu experience was when a large pod of dolphins was seen by the crew. They got us quickly into the pangas and took us right into the middle of the pod.”
