“I was in a 7 day dream. We were on Princess Graces honeymoon yacht with only 14 other people and crew. The warm waters of the Galapagos beckoning everyday. Sea Lions, turtles, colorful fish, coral, penquins, rays, sharks and so much sea life all around as we snorkeled. Hiking the volcanic islands watching Frigates, iguanas, pelicans, Blue footed Boobies dancing and walking through a history that hasn’t changed in millennium The ship was magnificent large clean staterooms, great aft open air dining and bar areas. All the staff so very helpful and fun (they love their job). The Michelin starred chef (if he isn’t he should be) put out meal after meal of unbelievable variety and taste. This dream has been on my bucket list for over 50 years and I shall relive it over and over again. My only disappointment was waking up at the airport in Quinto knowing I have experienced such a wonderful, informative and relaxing living dream that I should have done way earlier in life and will now have a hard time duplicating it. Who knows we have not yet explored the West Galápagos!”

Dear Terry, What a joy to read your beautiful reflection—thank you for taking us along on your 7-day dream! It’s heartening to hear that everything from the wildlife to the cuisine and crew left such a lasting impression after 50 years of anticipation. We’re so glad the experience lived up to your hopes (and maybe even added a new chapter to the bucket list with the Western Galápagos!). Here’s to more wonder-filled adventures ahead, whenever you're ready to return. Warmly, Diane Schicke Customer Success Hero

“We really liked the Grace. A well maintained ship with a very nice crew. Small group adventures were great to be able to hear and see everything. Very clean. My only complaint is they eat supper around 7:30 at night and that is very late for me, considering they sometimes have us get up at 6AM.”

Dear Alan, Thanks for your review! We're glad you enjoyed the Grace, especially the crew and the intimate feel of the small-group excursions. We know dinner at 7:30 can feel late for some—especially with early starts—which is why we offer sunset snacks and drinks after the afternoon outings every day. This schedule helps us make the most of each day’s adventures while giving you time to unwind before dinner. We really appreciate you sharing your thoughts and hope to see you back on another Quasar adventure in the near future! Regards, Diane Schicke Customer Success Hero

“The yacht was a classic design that felt very comfortable and unassuming. We enjoyed the common areas and the room was very clean and had plenty of space. Our guides, Monica and Walter were fantastic as well as was the rest of the crew”

“The Grace Galapagos Yacht was everything and more for our wonderful expedition to the Galapagos. The crew was super attentive and ready to help in everything we asked. The captain made us feel welcome --- he explained our trek across the equator, welcomed us back from our shore excursions, and always had a smile on his face. The crew members that we most directly interacted with, especially Ariana, Xavier, Melanie, and others who took care of us, were obviously concerned that the passengers were enjoying their trip of a lifetime! Our two naturalists, Alejandro and Walter, were always available to answer questions, and did an outstanding job of overseeing our hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, and zodiac boat trips. Their knowledge was incredible, and their evening lectures were a great way to catch up from the day's events. Plus, they were genuinely fun to be around! The Yacht was beautiful and our cabin room was plenty spacious. The meeting room was ideal for the size of the group, and it was a pleasure and thrill to get a chance to eat all of our meals outdoors in beautiful surroundings. It wasn't unusual for the passengers to be eating a meal and all a sudden, there would be a rush to the side of the Yacht to see, for example, a hammerhead shark, albatross, and other sealife. What an adventure and what a trip!”

Dear Guest, Your review transported us right back on deck with you! It’s amazing to hear how the Grace crew, from the ever-smiling captain to Ariana, Xavier, Melanie, and your brilliant naturalists, made every moment special—whether you were crossing the equator, spotting hammerheads over lunch, or soaking in the day’s adventures under the stars. Your words capture the magic of the Galápagos perfectly, and we’d love to have you back for another round of once-in-a-lifetime moments! Warm regards, Diane Schicke Customer Success Hero
