We chose the Silversea Silver Galapagos because we wanted an all-inclusive cruise around the Galapagos Islands. It was fantastic! No complaints at all. A word of advice, be prepared for a jam-packed vacation. Don't plan on sleeping in. Every morning and afternoon has an activity planned. This trip is especially great if you snorkel and/or kayak. Plenty of opportunities to swim with large green see turtles, blue-footed boobies, and Galapagos penguins, as well as all the colorful fish the islands are known for. The butler, Danny, was just wonderful as well as all of the staff. The food was excellent and each night they has a couple of local cuisine items to choose in addition to the normal fresh food. (They accommodated my lactose intolerance every day and night with no problems.) You get to choose which types of pillows and how many you want on each bed. They also fill your in-room refrigerator with drinks of your choosing, including white wines, fruit juices, sodas, beer - whatever you want. They provided several bottles of red wine over the course of the cruise, also. I was especially impressed with the bottles of champagne they placed in the cabin, which I only requested once, but they noticed when we finished one off and resupplied one for us.

Again, a wonderful experience for a first cruise. I believe they have spoiled me for other cruise lines.
