Spend the day hiking with a naturalist guide, kayaking through the waterways or spy the marine life from a glass-bottomed boat. Then re-join your yacht in the evening and enjoy gourmet dishes served within the yacht’s restaurant then enjoy a nightcap at the bar or in your suite and take in panoramic views of the ocean.
You will be able to look out over the Galapagos from your on-deck Jacuzzi, if you set sail upon the new Elite yacht. A typical eight-day cruise upon this glamorous 16-berth vessel with take you on a tour of the fauna-packed archipelago including San Cristobal Island (the first island that Charles Darwin set foot upon), North Seymour Island where there are colonies of blue-footed boobies, Fernandina Island which is where they recently found the Galapagos tortoise that they until this year they thought swas extinct, and Isabela Island that features two tranquil turquoise coves.
The team that own Grace Kelly’s former yacht – Grace, is about to launch a second luxury yacht in the Galapagos. This new 18-berth megayacht that even comes with a spa, is expected to be the last word in luxury. But what makes it even more special is that the team has partnered with the Charles Darwin Research Station and the Galapagos National Park, so each time they set sail, they will have a team of scientists and researchers on board. The perfect way to go island hopping in the Galapagos.
