life on board

Wake to volcanic silhouettes and blue-footed boobies gliding past the bow.

After breakfast, step into Zodiacs for small-group landings, snorkeling with sea turtles and playful sea lions. Back on board, unwind at Basecamp, review the day’s sightings with your guides, then savor regionally-inspired cuisine.

Evenings bring golden-hour panoramas, insightful talks, and the hush of the equatorial night. Silver Origin delivers the Galapagos you imagined, only more immersive, more comfortable, and more personal.

good to know

faqs

How far in advance should I book Silver Origin?
Peak dates fill 9–12 months in advance; shoulder season can be more flexible. Hold a suite early for best choice.

Are wet landings required?
Many sites involve stepping from a Zodiac into shallow water. Guides brief you and offer alternatives when possible.

What’s the best time to see wildlife?
Year-round is excellent. Behavior varies by season (e.g., courtship, nesting). Ask us which month fits your interests.
