Best experience of my life. The guides showed the Galapagos perfectly, and the crew made life so enjoyable and simple while on board. No other way to do the Galapagos.

I cannot say enough good things about the entire team on the Grace and Quasar as a whole. Even with small last minute changes the booking process was smooth and easy. The team on board deserves more than 5 stars. We joked the gentleman making up the room had ninja skills - every time you left and came back the room as even better than before. The birthday cake made out of towels was amazing. Honestly though he was just one peace of a team that worked extremely well together - Leo did a great job. Our Naturalist Guides, Gastavo and Daniel were personable and entertaining. (I do wish they were allowed to dine with the guest, they become part of the family). Speaking of the guests - traveling alone is always an adventure but you wouldn't have known I was on this trip. Everyone on the boat was amazing. They really do become your family for the week - and many of them beyond.

Loved the ship! It's ambiance and history are second to none. Great attentive staff and we felt the small size of the group increased the depth of our experience. The Naturalists on board were not only well informed, but made sure everyone got the most out of the trip. I can't imagine a better introduction to the magic of the Galapagos.

Everything about the yacht is very well thought out: from the food portions and the dining service to the inland tours. The all-Ecuadorian staff did a marvelous job.

We were very pleased with our experience on Grace. The staff were all friendly, courteous and attentive. The Naturalists were exceptional in their level of knowledge and ability to convey it, in addition to being really nice and personable. There were many varied opportunities to experience the beauty and diversity of the Galapagos; hiking, snorkeling, kayaking or just traveling in the pangas. The food was fine, not exceptional, but overall service was great! I don't know if The Grace gets credit for this or not, but the other fourteen guests on the yacht, all strangers to us, were friendly and easy to travel with. That made a big difference in our enjoyment level. The Grace clearly attracts motivated travelers and interesting people. We would definitely recommend The Grace to others! We have only one suggestion, we made our trip arrangement with a travel agent, not directly through Quasar. It seemed like the guests who worked directly with Quasar had some information which hadn't been provided to our agent (i.e, bring check or lots of cash to pay for gratuities). Not a real problem, but would have been nice to know).

see above, The ship is fabulous and even though we were on the C deck, the C2 cabin was larger than we expected based on the pictures. There's ample closet and shelf storage. Best of all the bathroom is great and roomy.
