Galapagos Islands Cruises > Under 16

You will find below a list of all Galapagos cruises under 16 guests, available for you to book. The Galapagos cruises that fall into this category are particularly distinctive because the majority of the vessels will strive to have a passenger capacity of sixteen. This is the maximum number of passengers that a Galapagos cruise can transport with a single naturalist guide, and it is a requirement that is enforced by the Galapagos national park.
A more individualized guiding experience is provided for vessels carrying under 16 passengers. In most cases, vessels that have a capacity of under 16 passengers would either be included in the lower tier of comfort, which means that they are of a smaller size and are unable to accommodate sixteen passengers, like Samba. Or, on the opposite end of the scale, you might also find luxury vessels that offer large cabins and suites in order to create a more individualized and one-of-a-kind experience, similar to what Passion offers.
Therefore, if you are searching for a personalized guiding experience and you place a high priority on this aspect of your trip to the Galapagos Islands, vessels that carry under 16 passengers will undoubtedly meet your requirements.

Will Galapagos cruises under 16 guests be available for single guests?

If you are traveling alone and want the highest quality of guidance, Galapagos cruises under 16 passengers may be an ideal choice for you. The surcharge will vary from cruise to cruise. There are a few first-class and luxury vessels that offer single cabins without any additional supplement, therefore it is also recommended that you take into consideration the category of maximum 16 passengers. Additionally, there is not much of a difference in terms of the number of guests.

Will Galapagos cruises under 16 guests have good itineraries?
