Our SMART Galapagos trip exceeded every expectation and was one of the most unforgettable travel experiences we've ever had. Seeing the iconic blue-footed boobies up close, along with countless playful sea lions, felt like stepping into a nature documentary. The snorkeling was incredible—we swam alongside sea turtles and even Galápagos penguins, creating memories we'll talk about for years. Every meal was delicious and thoughtfully arranged, giving us a great taste of the islands while keeping us energized for each day's adventures. From the initial planning process to island transfers and daily logistics, communication was seamless and the entire trip was executed flawlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment. Lastly, BIG SHOUT OUTS to Juan Pablo and Cesar. The trip would not have been as perfect as it was without them, thank you for everything : )

Pasamos muy gratos momentos en nuestro viaje a Galápagos, la agencia fue magnífica, nos atendieron muy bien , todo el tiempo pendientes de nosotros y nuestras necesidades. Hoteles muy bien elegidos y los tours también, nos recomendaron restaurantes muy bonitos. Recomiendo totalmente esta agencia nos hizo mucho más placentera la estadía encargándose de todos los detalles . Y las islas Galápagos simplemente una maravilla!!

We had an amazing experience touring the Galápagos with Smart Galápagos. From the very beginning, the communication and organisation were excellent — everything was handled smoothly, clearly, and professionally, which made the whole trip completely stress-free. The accommodations throughout the tour were fantastic: comfortable, clean, and in great locations. It was clear that a lot of thought had gone into creating a high-quality experience for guests. A very special mention goes to Juan Pablo, who truly went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. He was incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and always willing to help with anything we needed. His passion for the Galápagos and genuine care for guests really stood out and made such a difference to our experience. The itinerary was perfectly planned, the excursions were unforgettable, and every detail felt carefully considered. The Galápagos itself is obviously incredible, but Smart Galápagos made the experience even more special. We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a seamless, memorable, and well-organised adventure.

The agency name says it all! When doing my rem 2 ways of visiting the Galapagos. Doing a cruise: all my friends doing that got seasick, it’s very expensive although you can access diving spots not available from land tours. Doing it from the land: stayed twice as long for the same price, do island hopping then visit other islands from there, stay in your bed and recover in the evening, choose different type of restaurant. It was a no brainer… we did meet some people doing it themselves and they struggled with tours and ferry being booked out then not having anything to do. Choosing an agent to organize our trip was easy, from day 1, Juan Pablo was the only one asking us our level of fitness, what we were interested in, etc before proposing a tour. He has different options depending on budget/ length etc. His level of communication and organization is 10* Everything is detailed, options are given and discussed, he is very responsive. We even had a WhatsApp call so I could check him out. Once you start the tour, you are in constant communication with him by WhatsApp ( having an eSIM is recommended). For dinner included, he books the best table in the restaurant ( the one overlooking the water). For meals not included, he has good recommendations. He knows a lot about the islands. Hotels were great too. We took the long package (11 nights) and everything went smoothly. We stayed on the 3 main islands. Everything was pre booked and pre arranged. The tours had in average about 12-16 people. The choice of tours was great and allow us to see the different wildlife on land and in the sea. Obviously depending on the season, and luck, you will see different animals. But the Galapagos has wildlife everywhere so you can’t miss it. Our highlights were blue and red footed boobies, tortoises, land and marine iguanas, sea lions, penguins, frigates, turtles, white and black tip reef sharks, hammerheads. It was an amazing time and I really thank Juan Pablo for organizing our trip.

Wir haben die Inseln Santa Cruz, Bartholomew, Isabella, San Cristobal und Espaniola besucht. Jede dieser Inseln hat ihre Besonderheiten und ist wunderschön. Wir haben so viele wunderschöne Erlebnisse gehabt und so viele verschiedene Tiere und Pflanzen gesehen, es war einfach überwältigend. Ich hoffe das dieses Naturparadies noch lange geschützt und damit für nachfolgende Generationen erhalten bleibt. Die Menschen war sehr relaxt und hilfsbereit. Das Essen , vor allem die Fischgerichte und die Früchte waren ausgezeichnet. Die Reiseorganisation mit dem Programm sowie den Hotels wurden von Smart Galapagos hervorragend ausgewählt. Insbesondere der Inhaber Juan Pablo war immer per WA zu erreichen und hat immer für uns das Beste erreicht. Hier an dieser Stelle nochmals vielen Danke an Juan Pablo für dieses unvergessliche Erlebnis. Wir wollen auf jeden Fall innerhalb der nächsten 5 Jahre wiederkommen um die restlichen Schönheiten der Inseln zu erkunden. Smart Galapagos bietet eine tolles Erlebnis zu smarten Preisen.
