Explore many of the best islands of the Galapagos on this fabulous
wildlife cruise. Since they were officially discovered, in 1535,
the islands have had a rich and varied history. See for yourselves
with our range of itinerariesChoose your vessel from tourist class
to deluxe, small yachts to a large cruising vessel. Each is equipped
to give you smooth navigation, high performance, stability and comfort,
in fact everything you need for sailing or cruising around these
magnificent Isles.
You island hop mostly by night, which means that you get extra
time on land to encounter exotic species, which have been around
almost since time began. There will be plenty of time for exploring
by foot, quiet observation and photography - the land-based creatures
are incredibly tame and often seem to 'pose' for pictures! You might
even see bottlenose dolphins, sperm whales or orcas on your travels,
too (depending on the time of year).
