Crew consists of bilingual naturalist guide to lead you on excursions, a chef to cook you delicious meals using fresh ingredients, cruise service officer available to make sure your every need is met, and captain and supporting crew to make sure you are always transported safely to and from the islands. Every room is named after an endemic Galapagos animal species.

This cruise is perfect for those that want to see all that the Galapagos islands have to offer, without sacrificing comfort and luxury.
