Galapagos: The Enchanted Isles Charter Itinerary

Galapagos: The Enchanted Isles Itinerary

Galapagos: The Enchanted Isles Yacht Charter
A week through the Galapagos, the Enchanted Isles, where fearless wildlife and volcanic landscapes changed how we understand life on earth. This is a voyage of encounters, giant tortoises and marine iguanas, sea lions and blue-footed boobies at every turn. Expect pristine snorkelling and iconic viewpoints, creatures found nowhere else, a truly once-in-a-lifetime cruise.

Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain to a quieter anchorage. What follows is one considered way to read it; the rest we tailor to you.
Day 1

Santa Cruz

Begin on Santa Cruz, travelling back to prehistoric eras as you meet the giant tortoises at the Charles Darwin Station and in the highlands. Explore the lava tunnels, then set sail for a first swim.
