Galápagos Travel Forum

hello,

i'm planning on going to ecuador and the galapagos at the end of november. i received a quote from a tour operator to the galapagos, and was wondering if anyone has travelled in any of the following boats:

Cormorant - 12 passenger cruise double cabin with two shared 
bathrooms dates 21-25 Nov US$ 400 per person.

Poseidon - 10 passenger cruis double cabin with private bathrooms
dates 20-24 Nov US$ 450 per person.

Yolita - 12 passenger cruise double cabin with private bathroom
dates 21-25 Nov US$ 450 per person.

these prices seem to good to be true, so i'm just a little weary about the boats... and the tour operator! All other operators have a higher price for the same boats..

if you have travelled in any of these or know someone who has, could you please let me know how the experience was -- would you recommend it, would you have spent more money for a better boat class, etc?

Also, what are the chances of me finding a last minute deal on a galapagos cruise, at the end of november, for a total of 4 people?

many thanks!~

Well I preffer the bigger boats, bacause don't move a lot, and you can travel more fast. With the move i don't feel well.
