— Itineraries & Dates —

Two routes. Year-round departures.

Each day start easy on deck—coffee, seabirds, and your naturalist guide setting the plan. With just 16 guests, everything feels smooth: quick Zodiac landings, unhurried beach time, and snorkeling where sea lions often glide past. Back on this small-ship yacht, fresh towels, light ceviche, and the Jacuzzi sun deck bridge adventures and downtime.

Evenings are relaxed and social: a conversational briefing, al-fresco dining with Ecuadorian flavors, then stargazing as the yacht’s wide 9-meter beam keeps the ride calm. When you are ready to unplug, your balcony suite is steps away, cool, quiet, and ocean-breezy.

It is that sweet spot guests love: real expedition energy with just-right comfort, ideal for families, couples, and solo nature-lovers seeking a small-ship Galapagos cruise that’s intimate, stable, and unforgettable.

— Good to Know —

Practical notes.

Balance your day, your way

Every landing offers choices, join an active hike, paddle a kayak, snorkel with sea lions, or simply ride along on a Zodiac coastal tour. The crew adapts to your rhythm, not the other way around.

Digital detox (mostly)

Connectivity is limited in the National Park, and that’s part of the magic. Put the phone down, look up, and enjoy genuine off-grid moments. Upload your memories when you’re back on the mainland.

Sustainability is part of the journey

The yacht runs on eco-efficient systems and supports local sourcing, helping ensure your Galapagos luxury yacht experience leaves a light footprint while protecting these extraordinary islands for the future.
