Programs can usually be combined or taken individually with short length programs, these offer popular stops in the south, center, east & northern islands. Activities include the youngest islands in Galapagos with a high incidence of endemic wildlife.
The designers of the Estrella del Mar Galapagos Yacht married the timeless elements of a classic sailing vessel – the handmade wood finishing, elegant dining and salon area – with the modern luxuries expected of the 21st century – Air conditioning, a full bar, hot showers, flat-screen televisions, and state of the art safety equipment. The Estrella del Mar Galapagos cruise has everything you need, for an unrivaled price.
On the upper deck solarium lined with faux grass, enjoy beautiful panoramic views while lounging on the chaise outdoor furniture. Heading down to the main deck, enjoy a shaded outdoor area to relax and catch up on that favorite book while feeling the sea breeze. As for the interior, the living space is equally magnificent, with cozy and stylish couches, a full bar stocked with everything you could imagine and a professional bartender to make it happen, a library full of fascinating books, and a dining area where the talented sous chef will without a doubt knock your socks off with world-class meals. As for the living quarters, expect every comfort and need to be met with luxury linens, bountiful storage space, charging ports for electronics, a private bathroom with a hot shower, and large windows flooding in light.
It only gets better, with itineraries of seven to ten days taking you through the best Galapagos hidden gems, unforgettable wildlife settlements, volcanic landscapes, historical sites, and of course the greatest snorkeling spots.
