- Expedition / Adventure
Sail along the Pacific Ocean and see the most beautiful islands of the Galapagos
- Full board
- 8 days, 7 nights
- Departure Galapagos Islands (Ecuador)
Located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the Galapagos Islands form a volcanic archipelago of 19 islands. Its geographical position, at the confluence of 3 ocean currents has allowed its land and marine ecosystem to develop in an exceptional way. Today, this archipelago has become a unique wildlife observation site in the world. During your 8-day cruise, you will have the chance to see and approach species (turtles, sea lions, birds...) that have been saved thanks to the efforts of the local population and conservation programs.
The itinerary and the boat we propose are merely suggestions. We can, on request, propose shorter or longer cruises on board other types of boats.

This information is subject to change by the authorities of the country visited. It is not uncommon for border crossing rules to change. We therefore strongly advise you to refer to the "travel advice" section of the France Diplomatie website: https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/fr/conseils-aux-voyageurs/. -
Who's in charge of flights to the Galapagos?
Your international air tickets can be booked by the GlobeSailor team. Simply specify this to your consultant when booking your cruise.
Domestic flights to Galapagos from the mainland are optional but highly recommended. Indeed, these are the operating flights of the boat you are sailing on. Therefore, in the event of flight delays, the boat must wait for its arrival to dock. -
Is everyone on board English-speaking?
Please note that this cruise is not exclusive to English travelers. It is quite common to meet people of various nationalities on board as we offer cruises to international clientele - encouraging curious and enriching exchanges for both passengers and crew.
