We remember first reading about this island sanctuary, a place that has been undisturbed for millennia and overflowing with fearless life forms due to having evolved without human interference. But what the books fail to mention is that you truly have to experience this paradise in person to fully understand how spectacular it is. Come along on a Galapagos cruise to discover endemic species like the massive land tortoises, swim with penguins and playful sea lions, dive with hammerheads and spotted eagle rays, and carefully step around more iguanas than you could ever count as we explore the islands.
We are thrilled to have been sponsored by the Ecuador Tourism Board to produce this video, and to help launch the Ecuador Film Residency program for content creators around the world. To find out more about the Ecuador Film Residency click here: ecuador.travel/en/film-reside...

Well, thanks for asking. We are Georg, Tara, Liv and Bodhi, a German-American family living in Colorado in the United States.

Let's go!
Georg, Tara, Liv & Bodhi
This man won in life. Beautiful wife, daughter and son, exploring the world. That's a real success right here guys.
Simply WOW!! The production quality easily rivals multi million dollars documentary projects from BBC. You set a new high bar for content creation on TH-cam. Can't wait for more and to discover new places through your lenses.
Thanks Aymen! 🤘🏻
yes brilliant
it’s so fake- in reality it’s a ruined wal mart of cities- super touristy- look it up and see
When you compare anyone to BBC these days is an insult do u know what their board members getting caught doing
This production quality will put even Netflix to shame. All that is missing is David Attenborough doing a cameo 😀. You guys are leading a new generation of travel content creation by breaking standards with every upload.
- From one travel creator to another
Thanks Pooja and Shravan, you two always give me the best morale boost!😆 Great seeing you here. 🎉 And yeah, let’s get on that whole Attenborough making a cameo thing! 🔥
I know right! This channel is way too underrated. This particular video made me feel blessed, ngl. Amazing content quality. ❣
exactly what I wanted to say. This is too good.
100%
As an Ecuadorian, I love the way you film this beautiful country. Thank you for taking us on your travels with you. Bendiciones 😊
Hey, thanks for coming along! ✌🏻
The whole video and the cinematography are just amazing. They took this travel vlog to a whole new level. This is so underrated.

Why are you guys soo underrated??
Would love to watch more of such world tours through your eyes🥺
Love from India!!!

All you need is Ecuador 😍🇪🇨
Bodhi- We are adventure kids. You truly are little heart!
George, there are zillions of TH-camrs ,but the content you bring always glues me to my mobile or TV.
Live long lovely life, folks.
It is lovely to see Liv growing and learning each day.

Fantastic! Truly an epic adventure for these little kids. What an education they’re getting- absolutely incredible. Well done, again!!
Thanks! It really was an amazing adventure 😍
Man , each video gets better and better . Your video skills and editing /color grading & story telling are some of the best on TH-cam! love it
Thanks Bill! I like to take each video as an opportunity to push and reinvent myself a little bit each time. 😅 It definitely doesn’t help the speed of things but I love it. 😆🤦🏼♂️ Thanks for noticing and for coming along again! ❤️

Thank you 🙏🏻🎉
I got goosebumps straight for 20 minutes and 36 seconds. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!
I came up with maybe 2021, At that time I was in my home country. Now I live in Germany. After watching your first video *Masai Mara* I just fell in love with your filming, Video quality, storytelling, and editing. You deserve more attention and more views. All the best and keep up your good job. ❤️
Thanks (Danke) Muhammad 🙏🏻❤️
What a video, what a place, the cinematography, the sounds, the storytelling, the outstanding views and landskapes are just mindblowing. Glory to God the almighty the creator of everything.
Hi Frenweh Chronicles,
I'm always amazed by your video making uniqueness and having your family along (ohhh.. the 2 cute little stars). At some point, Your videos instigate me on the hesitation I have on starting my world travel and the family fun I miss in my life. I feel fulfilled seeing you do all that and in the most awe-inspiring and loving way. Your videos make my day and wish you all the success, more and more travel and a happy family time all your life.
Thanks for all that you do to bring us these masterpiece videos.
Wow, thank you for your heartfelt message. 🙏🏽 We will keep going and I hope you get travel yourself! 🧳🔥

I have to say it is really comforting to see u guys enjoying and learning about nature on Galapagos, especially Bodhi's laugh Omg is the cutest thing ever.
Truly heaven and soo soothing to watch this videos😍😍😍
As someone who has been there, thank you! It brought back wonderful memories. We don’t have your skills as photographers/videographers so it was just SO difficult to explain to people at home what it was really like there! It is AMAZING! The people are are also wonderful there. It is just a beautiful experience and I am so happy you and your children were able to experience it!
In awe of your videos. Everything is so natural and perfect, couldn't get my eyes off once i start them.
More than the content, i like how you present things so simple and full of life. Thanks a lot for spreading so much love and happiness in the world. Love your family. God bless.
- Big fan. Love.
So the weekend was saved on a gray day in Hamburg. Thank you very much 🙏🏻 Damit ist das Wochenende an einem grauen Tag in Hamburg gerettet. ❤😊 Grüße aus dem Alten Europa 😊
Danke Stephan! 😄
As always insane guys💝. I always feel like I’m watching movie😅❤🎉
Thanks bud 🙏🏻❤️
You're an inspiration for all the vlogger couples who want to have children but believe it's impossible to continue their travelling life ❤️
🔥👊🏻
Just out of the world, this place is truly drop-dead gorgeous! Thank you for this amazing experience! 👏🥰
Yeah, it’s truly unique 🔥
Omg Dude I'm from Ecuador and I really enjoyed this video 🤩😀

Yeah, your country is a treasure trove of amazing stuff! ✨
Congratulations the video is beautiful

Even harder than the cinematography, is the amazing job parenting that you guys have done. To show kids it’s ok for mom and dad to go explore and they stay safely on the boat.
Just wow! ❤❤❤🎉🎉
😅 Yeah, they are great kids! But to give credit where credit is due, Tara did pack a whole activity bag full of our travel games and toys we bring along for the kids.

"Paradise" is exactly how I describe The Galapagos Islands. I went there a few years ago, and nothing has matched that adventure.

Holy macaroni Dan! Thanks 🙏🏻 Good to see you back here! 🙌🏻
Wow! What a journey! 🔥🔥🔥thanks for the ride!🙂
It brings happiness on my face when I see your family new videos suggestion on my youtube recommendation, My little suggestion is to make another channel where you only upload youtube shorts. Bring audience to this channel from youtube shorts and facebook and instagram reels. I would be really happy to see this channel grow. Best wishes .😄
Appreciate the suggestions 🙏🏻 I did create a shorts channel, but I really can’t stand vertical shorts. 😆 it’s killing me 🤦🏼♂️

Love from Hungary 🇭🇺
This is just the first video of yours that I am watching. I am just halfway through it and I have already subscribed to your channel. Absolutely brilliant content, videography, editing, and what not, especially you know how to capture human emotions/facial expressions.... I don't know anything about you but I think you have eons of experience making videos... Pro!
I wouldn’t say eons. 😅 Thanks for coming along!

Sorry Tara, i hope your head is fine again, but Georg's answer is so good, so funny.🤣 "Im 6´4´I´m dealing with this every day of my life" YMMD
😆✌🏻
Thank you family for sharing this Wonder ❤.
I love your videos! Wish you would post more often. It is a treat whenever you post.
These videos take time 😅
Every single thing about all your films is perfect! But color tones is what I love the most. It's true, pleasant and yet unique. Are you planning any tutorial for it? Would love to learn the process.
I hardly subscribed for 3 channels and yours is one, RESPECT for the amazing content and quality. I am a bit sad to see only few hundred views currently, and I wish it reaches millions if not billions pretty soon. As a part of my contribution, liked, shared in my whatsapp and instagram story and finally 'SUBSCRIBED'.
More love to this amazing family
Thank you for coming along on our journey! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
One word "PERFECTION",this is documentary level
