CACHALOTE EXPLORER YACHT

First Class

Navigate the Galapagos Islands in comfort aboard the yacht Cachalote Explorer. Built for equality and equipped with modern amenities, it offers the perfect small boat cruise around the Galapagos. The lounge’s panoramic windows and the open spaces on the deck create a welcoming atmosphere for all guests aboard. Soak up the jaw-dropping views while savoring freshly prepared local cuisine or relax on the deck while watching whales and dolphins.

Cachalote Explorer offers the alternative of cruises in tiny boats around the Galapagos Islands of 6, 8 and 15 days that visit selected sites that remain approved by the Galápagos National Park; All Said is unique, rich and varied and gives you the possibility to experience the Galapagos up close and personal with a tiny set led by a highly experienced naturalist guide. Both 8-day itineraries have the possibility of combining to form a 15-day itinerary that we strongly propose for those travelers who wish to take a complete and in-depth cruise through the Galapagos Islands.
