Natural Paradise Galapagos Cruise

Stella Maris

Stella Maris is best understood as a private-charter-style Galapagos yacht rather than a conventional cruise ship. She carries up to 12 guests, which changes the whole rhythm: quieter briefings, more flexible deck time and the feeling that the yacht is a private base for one family or a small group of friends. The ship's personality is classic luxury yacht rather than new-build expedition catamaran. Expect spacious cabins, a master suite, VIP-style accommodation, teak decks, a light lounge, al fresco areas and a sun deck with Jacuzzi. The atmosphere is more polished and private than most Galapagos yachts, but still anchored in National Park landings, snorkeling, kayaking and guide-led wildlife encounters. Choose Stella Maris if privacy, charter atmosphere and space matter more than having a large expedition ship. She is less ideal if you want a scheduled small-group cruise with multiple departure dates, a lower price point or a very modern catamaran layout.

Tribute

Tribute is one of the more interesting newer additions for travelers who want a small Galapagos yacht with a strong suite story. She carries 16 guests, but the accommodation feels more layered than a simple double-cabin layout: Owner's Suite, Premium Suite, Panorama Suite and Ocean Vista categories each have a different reason to choose them. The ship's 2024 refit gives the page a clear point of view. Tribute is not trying to be a rustic naturalist boat; she is aimed at travelers who want comfort, modern spaces and a little indulgence between excursions. Indoor and outdoor dining, a wine vault, gym, sky tub and several open-air areas give her more lifestyle texture than many ships of the same capacity. We recommend Tribute for travelers who want a small ship, polished suites and a more contemporary onboard mood. She is not the right fit if you want the simplest possible yacht or if your priority is a long-established classic vessel with old-world character.

Infinity

Luxury yacht built in 2018; represents the state-of-the-art when it comes to purpose-built yachts. She has been designed from the drawing board up simply to be the most modern, luxurious, and environmentally friendly motor yacht in the Galápagos. She has been built to exceed all international maritime safety standards, and to provide stunning accommodation to complement the wonderful views you will enjoy from her private balconies. The most intimate experience One of Infinity's unique aspects is that she is designed to take 20 passengers. Many Galápagos vessels hold 16, because this is the maximum number of guests that may accompany a Galápagos naturalist guide inside the National Park. Infinity has re-written the rule book by providing 2 guides on board, meaning you will enjoy a much more intimate experience with a group of 10. You will get closer to the remarkable Galápagos creatures and have more time to learn all about these fascinating islands from your bilingual guide. Other facilities on board to enhance your enjoyment include kayaks, snorkeling gear, and pangas. Offering a range of 8-, 5-, and 4-day itineraries, Infinity will also visit some of the more remote islands that many of the other cruise vessels can't or don't, including such delights as [Genovesa](//galapatours.com/destinations/genovesa "Galápagos Genovesa Island") and the remarkable [Fernandina](//galapatours.com/destinations/fernandina "Fernandina Galápagos Island"). Your time on board will be just as special. With 13 crew and only 20 guests, Infinity offers one of the lowest guest to crew ratios in the fleet. Nothing is too much for your hosts, and the yacht has been designed with ample space for socialising, fine dining and relaxing with a cocktail. Infinity boasts inside and al fresco dining, an al fresco bar, and a sun deck with stunning views and a jacuzzi pool. When you need time to relax in your cabin Infinity delivers a true luxury experience. Every cabin features panoramic windows leading to private balconies. Private en suite bathrooms are beautifully finished and all rooms feature flat screen TVs and DVD players. For the ultimate experience, why not book one of the two suites available? These offer a huge amount of space and your own living room area, together with stunning floor-to-ceiling glass panels leading to large private balconies. Fine dining in relaxed luxury Infinity will be provisioned with some of the best South American and Old World wines and a wide range of premium drinks. Complimentary filtered water, soft drinks, teas and coffees are always available at any time you desire. Food on board will be fine dining restaurant quality, and you will enjoy sumptuous meals in the company of fellow guests in the spacious dining area, or enjoy a relaxed lunch or barbeque in the al fresco dining porch. Infinity offers the very latest technology and safety combined with levels of comfort and luxury not yet seen in the Galápagos to let you experience these remarkable islands in the style that befits a once-in-a-lifetime trip. This ship is remarkable, and we have been watching the progress of her fit out with amazement. We are proud to be able to offer our clients a chance to be one of the first to sail on this wonderful ship. With 14 crew to look after only 20 passengers and two naturalist guides, Infinity is the perfect cruise for those who want a really intimate exploration of the wonders of Galápagos.
