Our slightly larger comfort-class boat has the space to accommodate 20 passengers, which is still considered a small group in the Galapagos. Sharing the same amenities as our original tour yachts, this air-conditioned vessel enjoys slightly larger common areas, both outdoors and indoors, as well as 2 spacious suites.
The Galaven is an 88 ft. expedition vessel for 20 passengers. There are 11 double cabins, all with private bathrooms, air-conditioning and ocean views.
The Galaven offers spacious outdoor seating areas with sun chairs, a large interior dining room and a library equipped with a TV & DVD player for daily briefings and presentations.
Bilingual Galapagos National Park guides accompany you to all visitor sites.
