Price: $4,820 (Double Occupancy)
Set sail on an unforgettable Galápagos escape, where five extraordinary days reveal a world of volcanic islands, turquoise coves, and wildlife found nowhere else on Earth. Your private charter begins on Santa Cruz Island with the legacy of Charles Darwin before carrying you deeper into one of the planet’s most captivating natural sanctuaries.
Each day brings a new wonder: the dramatic lava fields of Moreno Point, the wild shores of Urbina Bay, the marine iguanas of Fernandina’s Espinoza Point
and sparkling snorkel sites at Buccaneer Cove and Puerto Egas. From close-up wildlife encounters to sunset views from the deck of the Nemo III, every moment is designed to feel rare, intimate, and unforgettable. This is more than a cruise—it is a once-in-a-lifetime journey through a living masterpiece of nature, reserved for travelers ready to experience the Galápagos in unforgettable private-charter style
What You’ll Love About This Trip
Private Charter Aboard the Nemo III
Air-conditioned, en-suite staterooms finished in warm wood paneling. This feels more like a boutique hideaway than a ship's berth, with large windows framing the passing archipelago from every angle.
Snorkeling at Buccaneer Cove and Puerto Egas
Some of the cruise's best water access, with wildlife-rich waters and coastline shaped by centuries of pirate history.
Moreno Point's Lava Fields
Dramatic volcanic terrain on Isabela Island, where lava flows meet the sea and create some of the Galápagos's starkest, most otherworldly landscapes.
Charles Darwin's Legacy on Santa Cruz
The journey begins where Darwin's own research took shape, setting the tone for five days of observing wildlife found nowhere else on Earth.
Fernandina's Marine Iguanas
Espinoza Point puts you face-to-face with the Galápagos's marine iguanas in one of the archipelago's most untouched and remote ecosystems.
Everything Handled
Roundtrip Galápagos flights, national park fees, a certified naturalist guide, three meals daily, and snorkeling and kayak equipment are all included. You show up, the rest is arranged.
