Galapagos Cruises That Delight

Galapagos Cruises that Delight


We know there are options when selecting from any of the fine Galapagos Cruises.  Yet cruising on the Galapagos Explorer is in a league all of its own.  Setting our cruise ship experience apart are several qualities not found on others traveling the archipelago.  Our dedication to sustainable tourism is one such quality. Another is our twice daily land or sea excursions each day of your cruise.  Yet a third quality is our astonishingly luxurious all-suite vessel, designed to provide impeccable comfort and service second to none in the archipelago.

The Galapagos Explorer is committed to keeping the pristine environment the Galapagos Islands are known for.  All of our land and marine excursions limit group size to reduce impact on the environment.  Additionally, each wildlife, geology and marine tour is led by certified environment tour guide specialists, sensitive to the human footprint while educating guests about conservation.

In addition, Galapagos cruises conducted by our vessel visit some of the most remote areas of the archipelago.  Our destinations are specially designed to minimize saturation of over-exposed stops by others while allowing our travelers to see nature as it should be viewed: intimately and unobtrusively.  Plus, the Galapagos Explorer is one of the safest ships operating in the islands, having decades of experience.

All nature adventures are conducted by scientifically trained guides, working in tandem with the Galapagos National Park Service and the Charles Darwin Station.  Each tour is well crafted to include a delightful mix of science, eco-tourist principles, and adventure.  Further, our vessel is equipped with a full library to read up on historical information about the islands, as well as ongoing research that is currently being undertaken.

After enjoying one of our land or marine tours, returning to the Galapagos Explorer can be an adventure in its own right.  Each of our amply provided suites is fully equipped with a television, mini-bar, central air conditioning and more, all with sea views and some having balconies.  Plus, products and processes used on board the vessel are in keeping with our dedication to sustainable tourism.  Soap, detergents and shampoos are biodegradable.  Water purification is accomplished with ozone, not harsh chemicals like chlorine.  We recycle all items that qualify and organic waste is crushed and discharged per Marpol and PNG regulations.

Finally, our ship is staffed by highly trained Ecuadorian bilingual staff sharing their cultural experiences and perspectives.  Our three, four and seven night Galapagos cruises include delicious cuisine; adventures created to delight and guaranteed to astonish even the savviest traveler.  Call 800.613.6026 for further details or to book your next world class adventure.
