Luxury Cruises in Ecuador & The Galapagos

Comprised of 21 islands in the Pacific Ocean off the western shores of Ecuador, the Galapagos archipelago is home to majestic volcanoes, numerous diving sites, and a plethora of native flora and fauna. The best way to appreciate the richness of the Galapagos is to head on a leisurely cruise that introduces you to the islands’ endemic species and landscapes in style.

Pick from grand expedition ships whose onboard specialist geologists, botanists, marine and terrestrial biologists can provide educational insights into the area’s biodiversity, or choose a modern luxury yacht which offers more intimate exploration.

Expect a range of daily activities to keep you occupied. One day you can be snorkelling with seals, penguins and iguanas, the next you can be hiking to a volcanic caldera or trekking through mangroves to reach a remote beach where giant sea turtles nest their eggs. Spot whales and dolphins from the deck by day, and indulge in star-gazing at night.
