Luxury Class Yachts

Galapagos luxury yachts are different from normal luxury cruises. While they offer premium service and tend to be more sleek, elegant, and modern than other Galapagos options, they are still expedition ships with a focus on ecotourism. Luxury boats may offer larger cabin sizes, or amenities such as a jacuzzi or private balconies.

First Class Yachts

First class Galapagos vessels are comfortable but don't offer as many amenities as the luxury boats. These are a great option for travelers who want a less expensive cruise.

Tourist Superior Class Yachts

The tourist class Galapagos boats offer the most economical cruise options. The ships are often decorated in a simple fashion, and cabins may be slightly smaller, but they are clean and comfortable. The ones we recommend offer intimate, family-like service with high quality naturalist guiding.
