We are just back to the UK from a trip to the Galápagos booked with Juan Pablo at Smart Galápagos. We couldn’t have had a better trip, Juan took away the complexity of booking everything ourselves. Right from the beginning he kept us informed of hotels and what trips were wanted to do and offered alternatives to. All the hotels and trips exceeded our expectations and Juan was always quick to answer if we had any queries. He and Smart Galápagos were just excellent thank you.

Juan Pablo was amazing from start to finish. Although the trip was officially an "8 day tour", Juan Pablo booked extra nights for us at our request for down time and a chance to explore on our own. The activities were perfectly curated and very well run throughout. Juan Pablo added some great included dinners are really nice restaurants, usually right on the water. He also checked in with us regularly to make sure that we were 100% happy. Juan Pablo knows everybody, so he will connect you with great people and great experiences. We went with the "comfort" hotels and these were great, often family run places with friendly service and a chill vibe. We usually travel more upscale, but I think we were actually happier with these family-run hotels. I probably don't need to tell you that the Galapagos islands are an amazing place for a vacation! We saw blue footed boobies, frigate birds, 4-5 giant turtle species, iguanas, sea turtles up to 2 meters in length, 2 species of sharks, Darwin's finches and many many more. The people who live in the Galapagos were genuinely friendly, helpful, and honest and, from my experience, there are zero safety concerns. We looked at pricey cruises and tours, and I'm so glad we went with Smart Galapagos! Our vacation was perfect!

We had a wonderful 8-day land-based tour in the Galapagos, organized with Juan Pablo from Smart Galapagos. Our main interest was seeing birds and other wildlife, and we saw so many incredible species of birds (especially the famed blue-footed booby), land and marine iguanas, sea lions, the iconic Galapagos tortoises, and marine turtles. It was just beautiful, and I appreciated being in touch before our trip and daily on the trip. The personalized attention from the planning stages, during the trip -- from changing a meal venue to touching base about a tsunami warning -- made it feel like we had a cousin helping us plan our trip. The places we stayed were run by very kind and helpful people, the food was excellent (I have celiac disease and ate safely and very well!), and the walking and snorkeling tours were just phenomenal.

We saved for 10 years for this dream trip. Smart Galapagos took care of everything at a great price!! They customized our adventures to best suit our desires and provided special dinners at top quality restaurants. We plan to return to the Galapagos and will definitely use them again.

Wonderful 8 days in the Galapagos Islands! Juan Pablo was friendly and helpful, having lived on the islands for many years. We spread our time across Santa Cruz, Isabela and San Cristobal. The Tortoise ranch was a great start and we learned quite a bit from the guide. On Isabela, the snorkel at Cabo Rosas was very cool, but a bit rough with swells and open water. We swam right next to several sea turtles! An afternoon kayaking was fun and a sea lion swam along with us. Our favorite snorkel was the last full day, at Kicker Rock off San Cristobal. The guide was excellent, we felt very safe and the equipment was top notch. We usually plan all of our own travel but with all the intricacies and options in the Galapagos we're very glad we had Juan Pablo and Smart Travel take care of it, and we still had plenty of time on our own to wander the towns and explore other centers and wildlife areas. Highly rec working with Juan Pablo, a great value overall.

My husband and I are just back home in the UK after an eight day Galápagos Wisdom land based tour booked through Juan Pablo at Smart Galápagos. All the Islands and trips he arranged were well managed and interesting. The hotels were just lovely near the sea front with views of the harbours and beaches. We had a meal in a nice restaurant on each Island and Juan was very helpful with hints and tips at every stop. Coming from the UK we had enough to arrange and getting Juan and Smart Galápagos to organise our trip to the Islands took a lot of the complexity away, enabling us to have a more relaxed trip which was money well spent. Juan Pablo was very supportive and very quick to pick up while there for any queries that arose. Thank you.

Juan Pablo of Smart Galapagos organised a fantastic 8 day Galapagos experience for my group of 4 friends. It could not have been better organised. The hotels were all comfortable with lovely, helpful staff and great views. The restaurants were always the best in town. We saw all the major sights on the three main islands and it all ran like clockwork. He got us great prices and made sure we had a lot of extras. He kept in touch with us constantly, making sure everything was perfect. Thank you, Juan Pablo ! What a great experience ! All ' of us would highly recommend Smart Galapagos.
