“Our Patagonia Self Guided Safari was flawless, even down to the weather!! Quasar did not miss a beat the entire trip. The accommodations, the meals, the guides, the car and the itinerary all added up to the trip of my dreams. My husband and I loved the solo travel, particularly when we would see the big buses loading from the hotels in the mornings while we packed up our comfy Quasar Toyota. All the scheduled excursions were high quality with knowledgeable guides. Every meeting time was promptly met and as a result we never really had any travel anxieties. The ability to check in multiple times daily with our dedicated advisor for updates, new questions, advice and recommendations was an added and appreciated bonus. This trip was spectacular!”

“This experience was so much more than a vacation. Visiting the islands, with our guides Sophia, Walter, and Alex, was like having your favorite college professors along. All three of them grew up on the islands, and have passionately studied multiple topics. They gave us detailed briefings on the history, geology, geography, oceanography, weather, biology, wildlife, and plants of the Galapagos. They were very personable, humorous, and energetic on excursions. The guides were just as excited to see the animals as we were! Alex was assigned to those of us who were just learning to snorkel. He was especially kind and patient with us newbies and got us up and running with the rest of the groups quickly. Sophia was the youngest guide, but she by no means lacked knowledge. When out snorkeling with us, she would dive down with her camera and take pictures and videos of the sea life to media share with us later. Walter had the best ways of explaining and imitating animal behavior. Be sure to ask him to do the iguana head-bob!”

“Absolutely the most gorgeous, gracious and illuminating trip I've ever taken. The yacht was beautiful with thoughtfully comfortable staterooms. Meals were superb with chefs who used ingredients and herbs imaginatively. And the staff was educated about the Galapagos and made appreciation of the islands much deeper. Especially the naturalist guides explained the wildlife and terrain with a depth of knowledge that was unexpected and full of love for the Galapagos. Their guiding of the hikes, kayaking and snorkeling made the whole trip have a bigger impact. There is no place like the Galapagos and we were lucky to be there.”

“A wonderful experience. A well-run adventure on a very comfortable boat. Helpful and knowledgeable staff onboard and in the office pre-trip. An opportunity to experience many rarer species of wildlife in such close proximity, and in such a pristine environment. The trip of a lifetime. I only wish the getting there and back from home in Canada had been less gruelling.”

“When I got back from the Galapagos, a friend asked, "Did you have a nice trip?" I had to chuckle. I wouldn't call this "nice" or a "trip". To me, it was an awesome adventure, an extraordinary experience! Snorkeling with sea turtles and sharks! Chasing after a family of orca! Sitting next to a sea lion that has climbed up into the boat! Incredible!!! I have memories to enjoy for the rest of my life!”

“Our trip on the Evolution was exceptional. My husband and I loved everything about it. I just found Quasar on line so I didn't have a personal recommendation...so here's my personal recommendation! All staff from booking, to crew to chefs to naturalists were fantastic. We saw incredible wildlife every day and enjoyed a great combination of activities and also time to relax. Highly recommend!”

“Our trip to the Galapagos was a bucket list for me and Quasar made it the trip of a lifetime. Even writing the review two weeks later, it still feels like a dream. Quasar far exceeded my expectations and don't even know where to start - the ease of planning with Diane, the detailed itinerary and videos that got us excited for the trip, the beauty of the Grace yacht, the amazing crew - every single one, all the wildlife we were able to see on almost every outing, and the expertise of the naturalists. Most important though, was the time we spent as a family enjoying the magic of Galapagos together and the instilling of the love of nature and care for our planet for our 9 year old twins. Thank you.”

“+ Excellent trip + very good program (and a lot of outings per day) + nice and clean cabins, decent food, great barman + Excellent guides, knowledgable and enthusiastic - Wine menu needs improvement, too many unknown (and not very good) wines. There are so many good wines in Argentina and Chile available. It would be nice if the wine menu were selected by someone really understanding wines - Only person that I did not warm up to was the lead guide, Alex (?), who does not take criticism well”

Dear Roland, First and foremost, thank you for taking the time to leave us a 5-star review. We are happy to hear that your trip was excellent and that you enjoyed the program, the cleanliness and comfort of the cabins, our food offerings, and the service provided by our great barman. It's also wonderful to know that our guides, known for their knowledge and enthusiasm, contributed positively to your experience. Regarding your feedback on the wine menu, we truly appreciate your suggestion. We understand the importance of offering a diverse and quality wine selection, especially considering the great wines available from Argentina and Chile. The good news is that as of January 2024 we will have a brand new wine selection menu available aboard our yachts that has been specifically designed to include a broader range of high-quality options. As for your experience with our lead guide, Alex, we apologize if there were any aspects of his interactions that did not meet your expectations. We aim to provide a welcoming and accommodating environment for all our guests, and constructive feedback is crucial for us. We will address this matter internally to ensure all our staff, including lead guides, are receptive to criticism and continually strive to improve the guest experience. Your insightful review is invaluable to us as it not only highlights our strengths but also guides us in areas where we can improve. We are committed to providing an exceptional experience for all our guests, and your feedback plays a significant role in our ongoing efforts to achieve this. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you aboard again, perhaps with an improved wine selection that will better suit your taste. Warm regards, ~ The Quasar Customer Service Team

“Quasar Galapagos and the Evolution exceeded my expectations. Our trip was great. We enjoyed our Naturalists and their extensive knowledge of the Galapagos and Ecuador. The excursions kept us very busy hiking, snorkeling and visiting interesting destinations, especially the sea lions and their pups. The food was delicious and the weather perfect.”

“It was an awesome Galapagos experience. Everything was expertly arranged and taken care of, from the time we landed in Ecuador until our departure. We highly recommend allowing Quasar to handle the organization of your land transfers and hotel accommodations. The Evolution yacht was delightful. The food was varied and delicious, and the crew was friendly and proficient. The guides were all exceptional in every regard. They were extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the Galapagos, from the history and geology of the islands to the air, land and marine animals that were on display everywhere. Above all, they were personable and engaging, and presented every topic in a very interesting way (nothing worse than boring guides!). The quality of the guides was a standout feature of this trip. Overall, we highly recommend Quasar as the top-tier way to experience the Galapagos”

“Ecuador and the Galapagos were "bucket list" destinations. Our trip exceeded all expectations and we credit the Quasar team for this exceptional experience. From the pre-planning to the last drive to the airport, no detail was missed. Above all, we credit all of our outstanding and knowledgeable guides--in Quito, at Mashpi, at Napo and aboard the Grace in the Galapagos--with making this a truly remarkable experience. We have already recommended Quasar to friends and colleagues. We would definitely travel with Quasar in the future. GRACIAS!”
