Ecoventura

A successful trip to the Galápagos depends on your guide; great ones will share the secrets of the islands with you, spot the rare animals, and treat you like a friend. You can expect this and more from the guides on Ecoventura’s boats. The company operates four ships: the 16-passenger dive boat M/Y Sky Dancer , and the three identical 20-passenger boats M/Y Eric, Flamingo I, and Letty.

Each of the latter three has two guides for every 20 people, a large sun deck, a bar, two sea kayaks, and snorkeling equipment. In addition to providing personalized service, Ecoventura is environmentally friendly. Don’t expect super-luxurious cabins or over-the-top food, but you can count on this operation having the most experienced guides in the islands.
