We’ve been exploring the Galápagos since 1970. Throughout the years, we’ve found that a small yacht gives you a superior, more intimate experience, with additional flexibility and time for shore excursions. We charter top-of-the-line auxiliary-powered sailboats and motor yachts built to graciously accommodate 8 to 16 passengers, depending on the boat. They feature air-conditioned cabins with private baths and showers and a 2:1 passenger-to-staff ratio. Each of these beautiful yachts meets or exceeds international safety standards, which is not the case of many of the yachts used to tour the Galápagos. So, in addition to traveling in comfort you can be sure that your safety is being given the utmost consideration!
Since we charter the boats exclusively for our groups (and don’t “book into” the yachts as some other companies do), we can control the quality of the experience you’ll have: an interesting itinerary that allows you to see the best of the islands; top-notch naturalist guides; delicious, satisfying cuisine; the most comfortable accommodations. Each boat carries a small fleet of sit-on-top sea kayaks that will enhance your explorations (kayaking is optional and does not replace any planned excursions; you may elect to explore by panga or Zodiac instead).
Here is an overview of the yachts we charter. We offer more than 30 departures per year. To see departure dates for the individual yachts below, please go to our Galápagos Islands Adventure.
