“We had an amazing 2 weeks aboard the M/Y Grace in April 2021. We were so well cared for by the staff....and thoroughly spoiled! We did 3-4 activities each day, snorkeling at least once (in a real life aquarium), sea kayaking, hiking and Zodiac rides..... By the time we returned back to the ship after a full day, getting briefed on the next day's activities and eating an amazing dinner in the outdoor covered dining area, we were all ready to get some rest before the next day's active agenda. The ship is beautiful, and it's history makes it very special. There were special moments, including when our Captain turned the ship around so we could pick up a large pod of dolphins again to ride the waves at the bow of the ship.”

“Our trip on the Grace was nothing short of magical. The crew and guides were beyond fabulous. I will honestly treasure my experience on the Grace, in the Galapagos, and with the crew for the rest of my life.”

“From planning and booking the trip with Diane, to being on the Grace for a week, everyone was very professional, helpful, & accommodating. First class service. Quasar and the staff of the M/Y Grace made a trip of a life time even more exceptional. I would highly recommend them. The food and service on board was exceptional”

“the boat was very comfortable with lots of outdoor spaces to relax and very comfortable, spaceous rooms. The food was excellent and something different each day/each meal. The crew was happy, playful and professional and contributed positively to the tone of the ship. The wildlife was unparalleled (as expected) with the highlights being snorkeling and kayaking. I can't wait to do it all again.”

“This was the absolute best experience ever! From the preparation to the actual visit to the Galapagos, we could not have chosen a better company to deal with. Our luggage was misplaced before we ever got to the Galapagos-Diane helped us arrange to go shopping to obtain everything we would need so that our vacation would not be ruined. The staff on the M/Y Grace were wonderful and our guides, Rafa and Walter, were so knowledgeable and personable--words aren't enough! Don't hesitate to use Quasar-you won't regret it!”

“The Grace is clean, well run, and beautiful.The air conditioning worked perfectly, the heads (bathrooms) were spotless, and there was plenty of hot water. The food was good, and the captain and crew were pleasant and efficient. The two guides were very professional and very nice people. The itinerary seemed well planned, and we certainly felt we had seen a lot of what there is to see. The bureaucracy, inefficiency, and interminable lines at the two airports in the Galapagos is irritating, but that is not Quasar's responsibility.”

“Quasar Expeditions did a great job with our tour of the Galápagos Islands. The tour guides, Rafa and Walter were excellent. The Captain and crew of the M/Y Grace were outstanding. The care and professional treatment of the 18 passengers exceeded expectations. The Grace is a classic. The cabins are very nice. It is a classic. The meals served were excellent. Every crew member rendered exceptional service.”

“Our week on the MV Grace in the Galapagos was nothing short of exceptional. From the crew's incredible customer service to the delicious food served for every meal, all our expectations were exceeded. The history and beautiful lines of the MV Grace made it all the more special. The maximum guest numbers are 18 pax so personalised service is guaranteed and nothing was too much trouble. I will never forget the nature and wildlife experiences particularly the snorkelling and swimming twice a day with turtles, sea lions, hundreds of tropical fish species, manta rays etc. I will never forget swimming with dolphins in the wild from the boat. Thank you Quasar for making all this possible. I will be back!”
