Hi Esteban,
We got home today from our trip to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands, after more than 24 hours en route. Nine of those hours were spent between flights at the Quito airport!
Our vacation was outstanding! We really enjoyed the Patio Andeluz hotel in Quito, and the four day tours were excellent. Ana and Gustavo were great tour guides. We were a little disappointed we didn't get to see the big changing of the guard ceremony at the Presidential Palace on the Monday that we toured the city, but other than that, the tours were very interesting and comprehensive, and the restaurants and haciendas where we had lunch were excellent. Your arrangements for our airport transfers worked very well.
Our cruise on the Athala was the highlight of our trip. The boat was lovely and comfortable, the meals were very good, and the crew did a great job. Our naturalist guide, Karina Lopez, was very knowledgeable and did a wonderful job of showing us the best of the Galapagos.
Thank you very much for arranging a great trip for us! We will gladly refer our friends to your company if they plan to visit Ecuador and the Galapagos.
Best regards,
Shirley Gaufin & Tim Jackson

Dear Maria Augusta,
I would like you to know that our Galapagos trip arranged by Magus was exceptional. The Athala and her crew were so wonderful and everything went very smoothly.
The Angermeyer Hotel in Puerta Ayora was great! Magus was so helpful from the very beginning and did not miss a single detail.
We would like you to know what an excellent job she did, and that we will highly recommend your travel agency and Magus.
We would like to send a thank you gift to Magus and hope that you will advise us how to do so.
With kind regards and many thanks!
