1 Day on a Galapagos Cruise (Day in the Life) | Our Review

[@MichaelSchneiderTexas]

Cool trip and cruise. We only went to two islands. We walked pretty much everywhere we went, we relaxed on the beaches mostly and toured around. Not many guided tours. I had the sopa de papa after mountain biking around Cotopaxi, so good when your cold. Enjoy Peru, it was awesome to , we went there 10 years ago, I think Ecuador is better though.

This video is very good, keep it up

You guys are in the paradise 💗

[@EricandSarah]

Truly is paradise ☺️

[@MichaelANelson]

Loved seeing this. Didn't realize the GoPro was so essential for traveling there. We will need to get one before we head down. Or maybe it was you guys and the great videography 😉 Another really amazing video. You guys got the magic. Onward to Peru. Can't wait...

[@EricandSarah]

Definitely invest in a GoPro if you can! We used ours a lot on mainland Ecuador as well because it always seemed to rain on our adventures 😂

[@EmmaOfer]

amazing snorkeling! Can't believe you saw a mola mola!

[@EricandSarah]

It’s seriously the best snorkeling there! Mola Molas are so cool!

[@KPD33311]

So helpful and amazing! We are headed there in March 2023 and with this same cruise line but different ship.

[@EricandSarah]

Amazing!! Hope you absolutely love your experience 😄

[@debbiemechling9990]

We literally JUST started to seriously look into this like 2 days ago so your timing for posting this was perfect! Subscribed and am now off to look at your other videos. Thanks so much!

[@EricandSarah]

That’s awesome!! If you have any questions let us know 🙂

[@jacquelinehagelstein1423]

Very, very, very nivel, hight level, fantastic.!!!

[@EricandSarah]

Thank you! :)

[@johnkilzer7908]

Loved this so much! Was this cruise a partnership with Royal Galapagos?

[@EricandSarah]

Thanks John! And yes we did a collaboration with them. But we did a lot of research beforehand of what cruise we wanted to go on and sought them out so we stand by our recommendations 100% :)

[@augieDog1]

Just did an 8 day cruise in june of 2022 with GeoEx. The most amazing trip I've every been on. Beautiful and educational. Once in a life time. Love reliving it through your videos.

[@EricandSarah]

So cool! Seriously one of the best memories of our lives thus far. Glad you can relive it!

[@sofiyu507]

What a great adventure! So happy for you guys. You were able to see and enjoy a tiny part of my country. We’ll miss you 💛

[@EricandSarah]

Thanks Sofi! We loved your country! Hope you follow us to Peru :)

[@CalamityTravels]

Found you guys today, loving the Galapagos content, seen all the videos already! Sad its coming to an end but looking forward to joining you on your Peruvian Adventure.

[@proyectonuevo7487]

Hey friend, what happened??? The Galapagos Islands are very Ecuadorian 😂😂Hey friend, what happened??? The Galapagos Islands are very Ecuadorian, if they compare us or call us Peruvians, they insult us haha

[@EricandSarah]

Thank you so much @calamitytravels ! So glad you enjoyed this series! :) We’re sad to leave Ecuador but can’t wait to show you Peru!

[@EricandSarah]

@@proyectonuevo7487 I don’t believe the comment was calling Galapagos Peruvian… it was referring to us moving on to Peru and looking forward to our next content!

[@dugfriendly]

That's a clever intro!

[@bodvargregersen5161]

Awesome, just awesome! It is kind of sad that you are leaving beautiful Ecuador, but I am looking forward to your visit to Peru. I have been to Machu Picchu, however, I did not climb little Machu Picchu because I am a stroke survivor. I am glad that I had passed on the climb because I heard that it was kind of scary.

[@EricandSarah]

Thanks Bodvar! We are sad to be leaving Ecuador as well... it will always have a special place in our hearts. But can't wait to show Peru next!

[@lesquebecoisenvoyage]

Just wanted to say thank you. This video was part of the reason why we decided to do a cruise in Galapagos in October and it was amazing. Hope you guys are doing great.

[@EricandSarah]

Wow thank you so much for coming back to this video to tell us that! We really appreciate it 😄 People like you are the reason we keep doing this.

[@luoma9040]

Im looking for a trip to Galapagos right now. Thank you for the video.

[@EricandSarah]

You’re very welcome! Happy to help!!

[@arturolecaro6166]

Your videos never disappoint me! Thanks a lot! I'm wondering, after all your travels in Ecuador, what would be the differences between your initial expectations and what you have experienced?

[@EricandSarah]

Thanks Arturo! We would say all of our initial impressions of Ecuador are still true. We'd also say the country was even more beautiful than we expected!! We definitely didn't expect how inconvenient certain things in Ecuador could be though... some things seemed to be unnecessarily complicated or time-consuming. But we got used to it pretty quick :)

[@arturolecaro6166]

@@EricandSarah now I'm eagerly waiting for your videos from Perú! Machu Picchu is mind-boggling and out of this world!

[@shabbybeauties58]

AWESOME!!! Enjoy it guys!! ❤️🥰

[@EricandSarah]

Thanks Edith!!

[@lasorpresamultiservices470]

THIS IS SO COOL XD

[@EricandSarah]

It was the coolest experience ever!!

[@rosemary1806]

Love this! I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations on filming while snorkelling? I'm going to the Galapagos in a few weeks and would love to get some awesome and steady underwater footage like that :)

[@EricandSarah]

How exciting for you!! We shot everything underwater on our GoPro Hero 8. I would recommend maybe trying it in a pool before you go to check that you have the white balance correct (or the footage sometimes ends up super blue). As for steadiness, that was Eric’s skill… mine not so much 😂 It takes practice to snorkel and hold the GoPro really steady. Having a handle helps… but otherwise you just have to consciously focus on keeping it steady even if you’re diving around. Good luck! 😄

[@rosemary1806]

@@EricandSarah Thank you for the tips!!

[@ciscokid33]

That is living! Salad!!

[@martywrigh1024]

love the vid did u mention the cost of the cruise?

[@EricandSarah]

It’s ranges from $3500-7000/person depending on time of year, room and when you book :)

[@vahinewahine916]

hello! just booked with royal galapagos! I'm wondering what shoes you'd recommend to bring on this cruise. i'm curious about what's necessary for wet landings and dry/hiking. it looks like the hikes aren't terribly technical so maybe one good rugged pair of water shoes would be fine? (I have some that look like sneakers with a rugged sole.) i was going to bring tevas/chacos but it seems like that may be overkill. thanks!

[@EricandSarah]

Hey!! That’s so amazing! You’re going to love it We had sneakers/runners for dry landings and hiking, but just had close toed sandals for wet landings. Sarah used chacos for wet landings and it was great. You still do some good walking after the landing so it’s not a bad idea to have some decent footwear. Enjoy!!

[@vahinewahine916]

@@EricandSarah thanks!! I'm wondering if there is anything you wish you had packed/had with you that would have made your trip smoother? Any tips or tricks?! thanks!

[@maggiroberts4749]

When were you there? What month? What was weather like?

[@EricandSarah]

We were there August 2021. Great weather (we have two other videos from the cruise if you want to see more) 😊

[@dongarcia6491]

For a sec I thought that big fish was a 🦈 Lol

[@EricandSarah]

Haha we thought the same! Freaked us out at first!

[@sirgalahad1470]

7:45 When Sarah puts on a wetsuit she immediately turns into a Power Ranger lol

[@EricandSarah]

hahaha you're very right 😂

[@glenntucker69]

Will the boat stop at The Smithsonian Tropical Research Center? I went there when I was in high school. Amazing underwater video Eric (or should I just call you Jesus? 🙏)

[@proyectonuevo7487]

😂😏 Personal Jesus

[@glenntucker69]

One quick question, did y'all do the wild "thang" last night, kids? lol 🤣🤭 Having grown-up in The Republic of Panama for the first 18 years of my life I can personally attest to you guys that iguanas use their tails as their defense mechanism....they whip you very hard with them. Ouch!

[@BePoliticool]

Just for tou to know, that ain't locro de papa.

[@donaldmacdougall799]

Dumb question but were the wetsuits because the water was cold?

[@EricandSarah]

Yes it's quite cold this time of year in the Galapagos (winter)! We could have done without them the last couple days because the water was a lot warmer but they also help you float easy while snorkeling :)

[@gillianmuspic2337]

really enjoyed this but the music was so very loud that I had to keep adjusting the volume. It became quite annoying and really took away from the experience

[@Newworld1492]

MY QUESTION TO U GUYS IS HOW DO U MAKE UR MONEY?? DO U WORK FOR UR FUTURE FOR RETIREMENT?? HOW DO U DO IT?? I LOVE TO MOVE TO ECUADOR MYSELF.

[@BP-zq6xf]

No que se iban a Peru y que PEru y Peru?.....Peru es Peru pero no hay nada como el Ecuador...punto....😎

[@maggiroberts4749]

Are the wet suits hard to put on? Do ladies wear bathing suit underneath?

[@EricandSarah]

They can be a bit difficult when wet but the staff can always help you if you need :) And yes bathing suit is best unless you own the wet suit.
