Customer Reviews of Galapagos
Sets a new standard for wildlife cinematography The three "Galapagos" programs (BBC/National Geographic) set a breath-taking new standard for wildlife cinematography. The artistic quality of this project is absolutely incredible- it is clear that only the most outstanding footage, of the highest resolution, artistic quality, and impact, was presented. This is much more than a wonderful lesson in Natural History- it is a real work of art, and a masterpiece at that. It places the Galapagos in perspective like no other film has done, but it teaches much more about the beauty of life itself. The narration is perfect, and does not compete with the beautiful sights and sounds that make up these programs.
Book your trip now...this documentary is the closest to a Galapagos Expedition
This DVD will transport you to the wonders of the Galapagos. The documentary provides viewers with in depth commentary and footage that will certainly bring the destination closer to you. Image quality and footage are superbly filmed, and Tilda Swinton's soothing voice & pitch set the right tone for an amazing destination.

>Wildlife footage has been captured in an unbelievable way; not only from a visually entertaining point of view, but also from a detailed point of view. Loved the scenes where giant tortoises are featured, marine iguanas feeding, blue-footed boobies displaying, albatrosses courting, and the only-tropical penguin on Earth fishing underwater. The volcanic eruption footage is also remarkable for its quality. For viewing purposes, the larger the screen the better.

>We went to the Galapagos in May 2006 for nine days and it was an unbelievable experience. We used Adventure Associates in the US, and also Ecuador's Metropolitan Touring. This dvd will remind us constantly of the powerful message the islands left upon us. We asked for "what is the best time to go", and we understand that tourism is managed year-round. We were advised that in the summer months, Easter, Xmas and New Year's, finding space can be challenging, but in months like April, May and early June, finding space is easier, and that wildlife is at its prime due to the transition months between one season and the other one. They were SO right! We saw so many incredible things both on land and underwater (weather was unbelievably perfect too!). We noticed larger vessels offered greater amenities, onboard options, and their level of Naturalists' environmental interpretation is excellent. We are making arrangements to go back again with friends in early June 2007, and will give them this dvd as a gift.

>Back to the dvd, the sound quality is perfect and the low price of $14.99 is very affordable. This is thus far the best comprehensive documentary we have seen about the Galapagos, and it will not be a disappointment. I have purchased other documentaries, and although they were good, this one remains our favorite. Another hard-to-find dvd is NG's "Galapagos, Land of Dragons", but was never released in dvd format, just vhs. You know what happens with vhs tapes after playing them twenty times. The dvd case has easy access to the dvd itself, and the different menus are easy to navigate through. The only con is that it brings just the audio program in English. It'd have been great to add Spanish and German.

>All science teachers and libraries should have it. You will not be disappointed with this dvd. Hope you can visit this extraordinary destination.
AMAZING
We went to the Galapagos last March on a fabulous camping and kayaking trip that was the most amazing experience. This place is so very special and the show really captures the beauty and yet explains the fragility. If you can't go at least watch the show.
