It was a fantastic week, the only criticisms of which are that it's already over and that from now on we're completely screwed when it comes to diving. Maldives, Caribbean? That will all seem very, very boring to us now... ????

I can recommend the boat, crew and tour to anyone who wants to see and experience something different. Contrary to the principle of not touching anything when diving anywhere else, most of the spots here involve a negative descent and clinging to the nearest rock for all you're worth! And then you're off... hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks, Adoe rays, turtles, sea lions, marine iguanas, barracudas, schools of mackerel, and and and... a normal logbook page is not enough to document everything you see in the Galapagos! From a single dive, mind you!!!

It's amazing, and the mega dedicated crew and great guides round off the trip to near perfection!

After the dive, an incredibly delicious hot chocolate with cinnamon... eggs for breakfast... your physical well-being is taken care of!

The only criticism I have - contrary to the description on the website, as well as on our travel documents, no LifeLines were issued. The reason given was that the guests would always return them broken. In hindsight, the system would never have been necessary, as the guides always took great care of the group, navigated well and always put safety first! At no point was my seventeen-year-old daughter or I scared!

Thanks to Fish&Trips for the organization, and to Masters for the perfect trip!!!

The entire crew made this trip an unforgettable experience. Always present in the background, but always there when needed. Every question was answered immediately and every problem solved straight away. This is exactly how you want a diving safari to be.

We have seen on the safari at the various spots altogether already very much (hammerhead sharks, Galapagos sharks, reef sharks, manta rays, mobulas, moon fish, feeding marine lizards ...), but due to the unusually high water temperatures was just at the highlight spot Darwin hardly a hammerhead shark to spot. Well, our expectations were fired by read travel reports admittedly also very high.
The ship is no longer brand new, which is also noticeable in the cabins. Security was good, but ENOS is no longer offered. The food was ok , but especially for us as vegetarians in my opinion not particularly varied. Measured by the price and the attributed predicate "luxury class" I had honestly expected something more.

Cruise director Jeffrey is top, multilingual, competent, experienced - we were in good hands. Crew very nice and in a good mood - better English skills in service + diving would be great, windows to open mega. All in all not much to complain about, however the last star is missing*.

For me personally, the absolute.
It is expensive fun, but it was worth every penny. I can only recommend this trip.

everything was great. if i actually want to criticize something, then it was the composition of the food. for me there was too little noodles and sometimes there were 2 side dishes and more often none at all. it tasted good and there was always enough.

The Galapagos Master sails under the name Deep Blue and is a consistently good dive boat. The dive deck is large enough and after the dive you can enjoy hot drinks one deck up, which are offered after the dive. The dive guides are very knowledgeable and show many events underwater. I was only surprised about the participation of some divers who had guaranteed not 50 dives. This can be quite dangerous with the sometimes strong currents in Darwin and Wolf. So the paying customer is taken along with the booking, with the knowledge of a possible diving accident of inexperienced divers!
All in all a very very cool liveaboard...Galapagos belongs for me again and again to the top 5!

We were very satisfied with the dive guides and their special sense of responsibility regarding safety, although I must say that the guides change every two weeks and I know that not all guides act the same. I can highly recommend Natalia and her colleague (whose name escapes me at the moment)! Regarding dive spots: in Darwin & Wolf we had our best diving ever, we have never experienced anything better! Simply awesome!!! Our personal highlight: a 7m long tiger shark! We also saw a lot of big fish and of course a huge variety of smaller fish and schools of fish. We were overwhelmed!!!

All in all we had a great 10 day dive safari with unique experiences. There is not much to say about the spots, they are among the best there is and our hopes and expectations were fulfilled. The cabin (upper deck) was clean and functional, maybe a bit outdated. The food was of very good quality, but there was often too little for the vegetarians among the divers and the last ones were usually left behind. Since the number of vegetarians was announced in advance, this should not have been allowed. The dive guides were different in their manner and also in the way they organized the dive but always careful and helpful and responsive. We also give all points for safety, because in principle - also considering the degree of difficulty of the spots Wolf and Darwin - safety is very important. However, we had 3 dives off Isabela (hope for Mola Mola) and the visibility was already at max. 2 m during the first dive, so it felt like being in the North Sea. Nevertheless dive lights (not video lights) were unwanted. We as experienced divers know such conditions and would normally never go diving in our home waters without a lamp. There it was already a little bit borderline in these 3 dives. However, we recommend the trip on this boat in any case.

An unbelievable journey where everything really worked out perfectly. Everything was organized great, crew, boat and dive spots almost impossible to beat... for me so far completely unequalled and the best I have ever experienced...........

(Automatically translated from German)

Ship: Simple, functional, clean cabins. The sun deck is rather unappealing and not very comfortable, hardly any berths. The lounge area with sofas in the aft section was too small to accommodate all divers. The indoor lounge was comfortable.
Guides: Due to the remote dive sites (Wolf, Darwin) the dive guides were very concerned about safety and clear procedures.
The quality of the food was ok to good, but often not enough. The last one at the buffet had the disadvantage.
