One of the best ways to see the Galapagos Islands is from the Petrel, a small luxury yacht built specifically for the job. Named after the common Galapagos sea bird, the Petrel lives up to its name – swift and silent. The stable hull allows those prone to sea sickness a trouble free cruise.
On board the comfortable Galapagos catamaran you’ll find spacious cabins with private balconies and private bathrooms, a large lounge area where presentations are held, a Jacuzzi and a huge sun deck from which you can spot wildlife.
The naturalist guides are carefully selected and all have a remarkable knowledge on the biology and ecology of the islands. Each has excellent language skills and the client reviews are a testament to their passion for the job.
There are a number of different length itineraries depending on budget and time constraints. Any of them will allow you to have up-close encounters with blue-footed boobies, iguanas, giant Galapagos tortoises, sea lions and much more.
