Oniric Safari Cruises is the Galapagos cruise brand of Andean Travel Company (ATC), a family-owned Ecuadorian company with more than 20 years in Galapagos tourism. Its cruise operation has sailed the islands since 2007. The five small ships cover clear comfort levels: Tribute is Luxury; Solaris and Treasure are Premium; Archipel I is Classic; and Aqua is Budget.
Here you can compare the fleet, explore departure dates and prices, and ask us which ship and route fit the way you want to travel. We are independent Galapagos specialists who know these vessels and the people behind the operation. Ask us about route differences, cabin position, comfort, solo travel, diving, or the practical feel of each ship. You receive the same published fare as booking directly, with independent advice, help arranging flights, hotels, and land extensions, and the additional safety of booking through a German tour operator.
The Oniric fleet gives you a real choice across four comfort levels. Tribute is the Luxury yacht, with eight suites for 16 guests. Treasure and Solaris are Premium choices: Treasure is a spacious 16-guest catamaran with private balconies and an outdoor jacuzzi, while Solaris has five dedicated single cabins without a solo supplement. Archipel I is the Classic catamaran, pairing stable navigation with a more value-led approach. Aqua is the Budget yacht and operates both naturalist voyages and dedicated diving departures.
Open the ship cards below for cabins, photographs and specifications. The right choice starts with what you want to do and see, then moves to the ship class, cabin layout and route. No ship is automatically best for everyone.

Booking through Galapatours does not add a markup. Our Best Price Guarantee means you receive the same published fare as booking directly with Oniric, while gaining an independent Galapagos specialist on your side. We compare all five ships with one another and with the wider Galapagos fleet: Tribute is Luxury; Solaris and Treasure are Premium; Archipel I is Classic; and Aqua is Budget. That makes the practical trade-offs in route, cabin, vessel stability, comfort, solo pricing and diving focus easier to judge. We can also arrange the corresponding flights, hotels and land extensions. Your booking is made with Ventura TRAVEL GmbH and includes the financial protection explained here.

Andean Travel Company (ATC) is a family-owned Ecuadorian company with more than 20 years in Galapagos tourism. Its Galapagos cruise operation has sailed since 2007, and in 2022 ATC introduced Oniric Safari Cruises as the dedicated identity for its cruise fleet. That history matters because travelers researching the operator may encounter either name: Oniric is the current cruise brand, while ATC is the wider Ecuadorian travel company behind it.
The five ships are deliberately not one category. Tribute is Luxury. Solaris and Treasure are Premium. Archipel I is Classic, and Aqua is Budget. The right choice starts with what you want to do and see, then moves to cabin layout, comfort and budget.
Oniric says it directs part of its revenue to Galapagos conservation organizations and invests in measures intended to reduce its operational footprint, including energy-efficiency work and solar power. It also describes its operation as a source of local employment and economic support in the islands. Our role is to put those statements, the vessels and their itineraries into practical context. Use the broader Galapagos cruise search when you want to compare beyond Oniric, or ask us directly which ship and route best fit your plans.
