Itineraries of the Mary Anne Galapagos Cruise
One of our favorite aspects of the Mary Anne is the splendid itineraries, with nonstop 8-day adventure. If you are looking for a complete picture of the islands, combine both itineraries for a wonderful two-week adventure. The itineraries are split into the East and West itineraries, each exploring hidden gems, beautiful landscapes, and breathtaking wildlife settlements. In the Western itinerary, enjoy the young and pristine islands such as Fernandina, as well as Isabella, with gorgeous volcanic formations and oceans teeming with marine life of the likes of whales, penguins, dolphins, and sea lions. In the Eastern Itinerary, enjoy landscapes that seem to be from another planet, along with huge wildlife settlements that have been evolving for millions of years. Among them, the birding paradise of Genovesa, seemingly out of Jurrasic Park, and Espanola island with its impressive landscapes.
