Active Galapagos, June 2014
Graham Lee
A unique and interesting location. Well worth the experience. But: This trip is promoted as "10 day Active Galapagos" It is about 6.5 days of on-ground Galapagos activities, and we (both in our 60's) found it to be low level activity and fitness, with short activities and too much dead time.

Active Galapagos, May 2014
jane barber
I have only rated as 'good' because I think describing this as a 10 day tour is misleading. Our tour and access to guide finished when we reached our hotel afternoon of day 9. Considering first day was in Quito and return flight to Quito was mid morning of day 9, this was only 7.5 days in Galapagos.
