Cruise the archipelago in style.

If it fits your travel style and budget, a cruise is the most immersive way to experience the Galapagos Islands — especially if you’re short on time. Cruises allow you to explore remote, uninhabited islands that can’t be reached on land-based tours, offering close encounters with wildlife found nowhere else on Earth.

We offer a curated selection of Galápagos cruises, from budget-friendly boats with basic comforts to luxury yachts featuring spacious cabins, gourmet dining, and top-rated naturalist guides. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, with kids, or in a small group, we’ll help you find a cruise that fits your needs.

We only work with trusted operators and boats our clients consistently love. Because of our long-standing relationships with many of them, we’re often able to offer special discounts and perks you won’t find elsewhere.
