Our costumer reviews
Xavier, our naturalist guide. What an extraordinary young man! So knowledgeable and engaging. An absolute delight. A great sense of humor combined with a genuine love of the subject matter. Very accommodating and physically helpful for those of us who needed a hand every so often (me)!
Exploring hidden corners of the world, is always amazing, but the one thing that truly brings it all to life is a great guide. One whose enthusiasm and passion, humor and compassion is like living in technicolor. In the Galapagos, that guide is Xavier Suarez. He brought everything to life. His brilliant smile and great energy (vibes) were contagious! Thank you Xavier, you are a gem and we were so fortunate to spend time with you!
My trip to Galapagos was incredible thanks to Xavier. He is absolutely professional, charming and very detail-oriented. I recently visited the island with my sibling and we were very happy to have Xavier guiding us during a week full of wonderful animals, snorkeling, boat trips, beach walks and amazing sights. Xavier arranged everything for us and he made sure we were enjoying and taking the most of each experience. I cannot say enough about how great this experience was and I’ll definitely go back again to the Galápagos Islands with the best: Galapagos By Local Guides!
