Amazing experience of seeing wonderful varieties of birds, land and marine animals at close range - Amazing trip, my expectations were exceeded. Alex organised the activities well and his enthusiasm for the beauty of the Galapagos was infectious and his knowledge was invaluable. The beauty of the beaches and volcanic scenery was unbelievable. The islands required long boat rides to travel between each one so Alex’s advice to spend time on each island was well founded.

5-day exploratory family tour at Galapagos islands with Alex Arregui - We had a wonderful experience in the Galapagos Islands, organised by our personal guide, Alex Arregui, who is a marine biologist. We made a 5-day tripis and visited the islands of Santa Cruz and Isabela. We were received very warmly and well by Alex, who was immediately ready for us and had arranged all the transport. Beforehand, we had discussed by e-mail our interests and wishes for the trip. Alex had arranged all accommodation, excursions and activities well, allowing us to explore the islands carefree. It was wonderful to see and hear how much he knows about the fauna and flora on the Galapagos. He could go on for hours with interesting and fun information about plants, birds and fish. We snorkelled with him, where he showed us the wide variety of marine life (including sharks). His tour of the Darwin Research Centre was very fun and informative. He also took us to the best places to eat at a very economical price. He made our trip very relaxing and enjoyable.
