M/Y Galaven Galapagos Cruise Description:

The Galaven Galapagos Cruise, comfort-class boat has space for 20 passengers, still considered a small group in the Galapagos. Sharing the same basic amenities as other first-class tour yachts, this air-conditioned vessel enjoys slightly larger common areas, both outdoors and indoors, as well as 2 spacious suites. The cabins themselves are slightly larger than on our original style tours and are a mixture of upper and lower berths. The Galaven is among the famous Galapagos cruise yachts selection and, while not having the luxurious trimmings of other ships, her owners aim to maintain the quality of the services as high as possible.

This  makes the Galaven an affortdable yet still first-class vessel ideal to explore the beautiful islands. The Galaven motor yacht offers spacious outdoor seating areas with sun chairs, large interior dining room and a library equipped with a TV & DVD player for daily briefings and presentations done by the bilingual Galapagos Islands National Park guide, who will accompany you to all visiting sites.
