"Our custom trip to Quito, the Galapagos and Mashpi Lodge was incredible, one of the best we've ever taken as a family. It took a lot of planning and we tend to be particular but Diego made adjustment after adjustment until we were happy."

First Class in every way--ship, staff, food, naturalists, hikes, information
Our expedition to the Western Galapagos aboard La Pinta was first-class. We saw 12 of the “big 15” species, from giant tortoises to Blue Footed Boobies. The ship offered beautiful cabins, fantastic dining, and glass-bottom boat rides. With excellent service, knowledgeable naturalists, and a demanding yet rewarding itinerary, we highly recommend Metropolitan Touring!

INCREDIBLE!
Our six-night Galápagos cruise on Yacht La Pinta was unforgettable, with smooth booking, excellent service, delicious food, and incredible excursions led by expert naturalists. The yacht’s amenities, including a hot tub and spacious rooms, made it comfortable, while activities like hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, and glass-bottom boat rides added variety. Highly recommend Metropolitan Touring!

Amazing company that exceeded my expectations!
Our four-night trip on Isabella II was amazing! We walked among sea lions, snorkeled with turtles, and enjoyed countless bird sightings. The naturalists engaged wonderfully with my 12-year-old twins, while the attentive crew ensured their safety during activities. Great food, comfy accommodations, and Melissa Altamirano’s stellar planning made it unforgettable!

Our 7-day Western itinerary cruise (June 21-27, 2024) exceeded expectations. The food was exceptional, service superb, and guides highly informative. Wildlife experiences offered great variety, with outstanding cleanliness and unobtrusive safety. The boat provided a smooth, comfortable ride, even in rough seas. Highly recommend this remarkable cruise and its fantastic crew!
