1-10 of 25 Quasar Evolution Yacht Cruise Reviews for Luxury to Galapagos
We have talked about going to the Galapagos for the last 10 years, and we finally took the plunge last month. This trip was for 3 of us, with my wife and I and our 27 year old son. I was initially interested in Silversea, as we have had an excellent experience with them, but their ship in the Galapagos has the maximum of 100 people (local laws restrict vessel guest count to minimize impact to ...
Dear Guest,
Thank you for choosing Quasar for your long-awaited Galapagos adventure! It's wonderful to hear that after a decade of anticipation, your experience with us on the Evolution was...
I really wanted to go to the Galapagos but I did not know how to put together a trip. After too much research I called Quasar to find out about their cruises. Diane was so impressive I decided to put down a deposit. I had some anxiety about this trip. It involved a lot of bits and pieces. I also wondered if I could keep up. By the time I arrived at the Wyndham, which was great, a lot of my anxiety ...
Dear Guest,
We're thrilled to hear your Galapagos adventure with Quasar exceeded expectations and I am happy to hear that I was of assistance in easing your worries and clearing away any...
We are just back from our excursions to the Galapagos aboard the Evolution and then the trip to Machu Picchu. Both adventures of a lifetime! With their assistance we had an extremely smooth and wonderful experience. The crew of the Evolution was super hospitable. The ship is in excellent condition and was perfect for our small group (7 total passengers), making me feel like Bill Gates! Our ...
You go through Quito/Guayaquil Ecuador to Baltra or San Cristbol to catch the boat.
This is not a luxury cruise. It’s an adventure cruise. Evolution was a leap of fate as finding specific reviews of individual boats was lacking & after a 1 ½ yrs of research I ran across a review that said the staff & guides are what’s important in Galapagos and it was 100% right. The Naturalists and the ...
Dear Travelkat19,
Thank you for taking the time to provide such a comprehensive review of your experience with Quasar Expeditions aboard the Evolution.
We're delighted to hear that the...
I went on the same boat last October and booked again because every single aspect of the trip exceeded my expectations. The itinerary and staff ratio led me to book the first time, but the food, accommodations, and crew made it an easy choice for trip #2. The islands are wildly different depending on the season, I definitely recommend going more than once!
The guides are excellent and the small ...
My husband and I just finished the Footsteps in Time itinerary on the Evolution, and we could not be happier. The ship is lovely; it's modern and super clean, but it has a very classic look which sets it apart a bit from most of the others we saw. The crew was very friendly and helpful, the service was fantastic, and the food was amazing; we're not really 'cruise people' so maybe we should've ...
This was the most amazing trip - the adventure of a lifetime that I was dreaming of since childhood! The guides were so generous, taking us on explorations that catered to everyone's fitness level, and immersing us in fascinating lectures of history and science of the Galapagos Islands which made us a part of the evolution of the Universe as well as a part of Darwin's journey through the islands ...
Quasar Expedition’s Evolution is a 16 cabin luxury yacht. We had the opportunity to spend 7 nights on this boat cruising the eastern Galápagos Islands. Every day brought new and different experiences, while hiking and snorkeling, which were explained by superb naturalists expert on the history, conditions and intricacies of the different islands in the Galápagos Archipiélago.
The yacht was ...
I choose this cruise mainly for being able to put 3 people in one cabin. Myself, my son, and my 19 year old grandson. And we did fit...mostly.
The staff was great. Our guides were Samuel and Alex. Both were extremely knowledgeable and had a love of their topics, Steve was our tour director and wore many, many hats. He was a very funny and friendly young man,
YES I would I go again and ...
My wife and I spent a wonderful week in the Galapagos on the M/V Evolution in May 2018. We chose it because it looked like a stately boat with nice finishes. The price was in line with the Nat'l Geo ship (maybe cheaper) but smaller and looked nicer to us. The ship had been recently renovated and it looked great. The room was beautiful and spacious. The bathroom was good sized as well. The common ...
