Overall level of Satisfaction

Tribes Overall: "Excellent"

Tribes Service: "Paul was very helpful and answered my queries promptly"

Guides: "The guide didn't seem very enthusiastic and only gave us one of two talks that he had promised as he said he was unwell. He was OK but I've had better guides on other nature trips."

Social & Environmental Responsibility: "I don't think a holiday of this type can ever be directly beneficial to the wildlife. However it definetely puts money into the local economy providing an incentive for the Galapageons to look after the environment. "
