I would recommend Quasar Expeditions to any one planning a trip to the locations served by Quasar. The quality of service and knowledge of the personnel was beyond expectation. In fact the entire trip far exceeded expectations by 100%. The boat crew and hospitality staff go to great lengths to make sure each guest is having the best experience. This includes each activity planned for the day, from kayaking, snorkeling, and hiking to learning about the ecology, wildlife, and conservation. It also includes fabulous meals, snacks, and libations. Quasar Expeditions runs a 1st class operation.

We spent a week on The Grace around the Galapagos Islands, booked through Quasar. It was an amazing trip. Everyone we encountered was friendly and knowledgeable from booking with Diane and Paul, to the whole crew on board, and our Naturalist Guide Raphael. Would highly recommend.

Our trip to the Galápagos Islands on the Grace was by far the best experience of our lives. The crew and Naturalist showed us the true splendors of the islands. The food, the cabins, the excursions, and the attention given to each guest was absolutely superb. If you are looking for a one of a kind experience discovering the breathtaking offerings of the Galápagos Islands, you can have it all through Quasar.

18 of our family and friends boarded the Grace for our Galapagos adventure. We had the most amazing time. Rafa and Walter were wonderful guides, planning our itinerary to avoid “eye pollution” as Rafa called it, so we had the most private experiences possible. For most of the trip, we felt like we were on private islands. The chef, Vicente, prepared fabulous dishes, we had tons of fun hanging at the bar with Saul, and I can’t forget the lovely Melissa and her soothing wake-up calls with soft music over the speakers. The crew were professional with Anderson making our beds multiple times a day like a phantom, the panga captains’ expertise in getting us to the islands. Last but not least, the Galapagos is a very special place. Snorkeling and playing with sea lions, seeing tons of turtles, sharks, fish, blue footed boobies, flamingos, iguanas, sting rays, tortoises, etc. The islands are also very different and beautiful with lush rainy weather on one and dry volcanic areas in others. The travel agent said the guides make or break the experience. Well, we had a once in a lifetime amazing experience, and we owe it to Quasar and M/Y Grace.

There really aren't enough positive adjectives to describe our vacation to Quito and the Galapagos Islands. The service provided by Quasar, from booking to the boat to travel home, was top notch. We felt well cared for every step of the way. The islands, animals and ocean life are amazing. It felt like we were in our own version of Planet Earth/Blue Planet. To sum it up, it was worth every penny we spent, it exceeded every expectation we had and I doubt we will every find a family vacation that will top this one.

We had such a fabulous time on our Galapagos cruise. The itinerary was excellent and we were up close and personal with so many different animals. The staff couldn't have been more helpful, and the food and facilities were perfect.

We just completed one our best trips ever. We relied on Quasar and could not have been more pleased with our decision. The Galapagos experience was simply first rate. We traveled aboard the M/V Evolution, a 32 passenger motor yacht. The captain, cruise director, crew and support personnel were professional and committed to making certain each guest had the most enjoyable experience possible. Our two naturalists (Alex Vox and Sam Quiroz) were the highest rated in the park system and both professors.

We had the most wonderful Galapagos Island cruise aboard Quasar's M/Y Grace. The yacht is itself a truly graceful vessel and we enjoyed a cabin on "A" deck. The crew were amazing, always able and willing to help with a smile. The food served aboard the yacht was also excellent, with a wide variety always on offer. Above all, however, were the shore excursions with the naturalist guides. We will never forget the individual islands with their amazing scenery, flora and fauna. It was a magical experience from start to finish. We will certainly be recommending Quasar Expeditions to our friends.
