Designed for travelers who value space, stability, and style, the M/C Treasure of Galapagos blends first-class comforts with the intimacy of a private yacht. With just 16 guests across nine cabins, you will explore the islands in small groups, linger longer with wildlife, and return to a calm catamaran where the crew knows your name and your coffee order.

Every cabin features a private balcony, air-conditioning, and panoramic windows—perfect for sunrise seabirds or a quiet nightcap under the equatorial sky. Daily outings with a Galapagos National Park–certified naturalist bring you face-to-face with blue-footed boobies, marine iguanas, sea turtles, and, if you are lucky, Galápagos penguins. Between adventures, the jacuzzi sun deck and shaded terrace set the tone for golden-hour decompressing.

This is small-ship Galapagos cruising done right: immersive days, effortless comfort, and a light footprint.

life on board

Mornings start with fresh fruit and coffee on deck as the islands wake around you. After a guided Zodiac landing and a snorkel with playful sea lions, you will return to warm towels and a relaxed, chef-prepared lunch. Afternoons might bring a coastal ride along lava shores or a gentle beach walk, kayaks are available on select departures for calm-water exploring.

Evenings are unhurried and social: your naturalist guide shares a short, engaging briefing, then dinner showcases Ecuadorian ingredients (with easy vegetarian/vegan/gluten-free options). Cap the night in the jacuzzi or on your private balcony, where starlight feels close enough to touch. With only 16 guests, service is personal, conversation flows, and the yacht feels like home.

good to know
faqs

Do all cabins have balconies?
Yes. Every cabin has a private balcony, so fresh sea air and ocean views are part of daily life.

Are dietary needs accommodated?
Gladly. Please tell us in advance your preferences: vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free travelers are well cared for.

When is the best time to visit the Galapagos?
Wildlife is excellent year-round. Warmer seas (Dec–May) favor snorkeling in lighter wetsuits; cooler seas (Jun–Nov) bring nutrient-rich waters and dynamic marine life.

Will I have Wi-Fi?
Connectivity is limited and varies by voyage. Plan to disconnect in the Park and sync up on the mainland.
