“It's impossible to write a short review. Our experience on The Grace was PHENOMENAL. That was mostly due to the incredible crew, the amazing OVER-abundance of high-end cuisine (three very full meals each day which you will need for fuel for the non-stop activities), and the expertise of Adventure Life and the "Following Darwin's Footsteps" itinerary. We also got very lucky with the weather (we went at the end of October/early November) and saw dolphins, whales, penguins, flamingos and all of the expected animal life that the Galapagos are famous for. It was so nice to have a captain who was willing to turn that yacht around to chase a pod of dolphins, or to help an ailing passenger. Fully bi-lingual guides with the best sense of humor were the icing on the cake (yay Monica and Walter!). While there might be cheaper ways to see the Galapagos, there are also more expensive ways, and we were so happy that we chose the Grace as it did not disappoint. I recommend the upper-level cabins which were super spacious with amazing views. We did the open-bar beer/wine package and felt it was the right choice for us. Take plenty of Immodium, Dramamine, ASP, whatever, because 50% of our passengers came down with some type of stomach ailment (typical for travelers, not due to the Grace). Overall, this was one of our best trips ever and we would go again for a different tour but would choose the Grace all over again. It was just perfection.”

“The Grace Yacht is an elegant, beautiful ship that has been superbly updated to modern standards. The rooms and public spaces are very comfortable, and the hot tub is great after a snorkel trip. The crew was excellent - everyone was friendly and professional, and made every effort to keep us comfortable.”

“Friendly, responsive crew and knowledgeable, enthusiastic guides (Walter and Monica). The Grace is well-appointed and comfortable. Food was great and they provided good gluten-free options. Two things that stood out: --Captain Israel was amazing. On the first night of our cruise, a passenger became very ill (unrelated to the ship's food or seasickness). The captain changed course to deliver this passenger back to port for a medical evacuation and then navigated all night to get us back on track with the cruise schedule; because of this, we did not miss any of the planned island excursions or activities. --Our cruise had 13 passengers of varied ages (ranging from early 30s to late 70s). We were a mix of people traveling solo, in sets of two, and a group of 4 traveling together. The alfresco dining area was set up with a table for 6 and two additional tables for 4. After the first few meals, the passengers expressed a desire to rearrange the dining set-up so that all passengers could sit together. Within a few hours, the dining area was re-arranged to accommodate this request. I really felt like the crew went beyond expectations in making this accommodation, as they didn't "have" to do this. Our experience was enhanced by their flexibility and willingness to respond to our request. Overall, my husband and I loved our experience on The Grace!”

“This is the one of the best trips I have done!!! Galápagos offers gorgeous places filled with beautiful animals. A must see! And the way to visit it is with Quasar, for sure. The Grace is elegant, with delicious food, the service is amazing, the cabins are super comfortable and remarkably clean, the guides are experts, and the staff is excellent, friendly, helpful, and with attention to detail. Everything was perfect!”
