LUXURY (16)
Style: Luxury Guests: 16
The Galapagos Elite Luxury Catamaran began operating in 2019. When the Elite reached the azure waters of the Galapagos Islands as the newest mega-catamaran in the storied archipelago, it reinvented luxury, class, and the entire Galapagos travel experience.
A sleek, twin-hulled vessel that provides its guests with a steady and safe cruise, the design of the Elite allows for more space per guest on board, including integrated social areas that blend indoor and outdoor designs and experiences. All Suites on the Galapagos Elite luxury catamaran are spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed: the perfect place to relax and recharge after a day spent exploring the islands.
The Elite offers enviable itineraries with visits to the best visitor sites the Galapagos islands and Galapagos waters have to offer.
