About this yacht
The catamaran Galapagos Elite is one of newest yachts cruising the islands, reinventing luxury, comfort and class! The Galapagos Elite was specifically designed for sailing the sapphire waters of the Enchanted Islands. A sleek, twin-hulled catamaran, it provides its guests with a steady, safe cruise without the rocking and swaying common to the older, single-hulled yachts that dominated the island cruise industry for decades. In addition to better stability, the design of the Elite allows for more space for everything on board, including panoramic social indoor and outdoor areas and panoramic suites suites. Guests of all ages can enjoy the ample, semi-covered sky deck, the al fresco dining area and the cozy bar and salon on the sky deck. Needless to say, the Galapagos Elite features state-of-the-art navigation technology and safety equipment: safety and reliability are essential parts of any Galapagos luxury experience. All Suites on board the Galapagos Elite are spacious, comfortable and well-appointed: the perfect place to relax and recharge after a day spent exploring the islands. Each suite has ocean view and outdoor private balcony and restroom. All suites can have either one king-sized or two twin beds. Our signature panoramic windows featured in each suite: unlike the heavy, round porthole windows of the older yachts, each suite on the Elite has grand windows offering panoramic views. They are not even windows, exactly: think of them more as a wall of tempered glass, with a door to get to your balcony. Each morning and afternoon will bring a different stunning Galapagos seascape! Guests greatly enjoy meals served on board the Elite. Our professional cuisine specialists prepare three delicious, nutritious meals per day: breakfast and mainly lunch will be served buffet-style, with a more elegant sit-down dinner served in the al fresco dining area on the partially covered sky deck. Meals are always made from fresh ingredients, locally provided from farms on the islands whenever possible. Special dietary needs are never a problem and kids' meals are available. The Galapagos Elite is operated by Golden Galapagos Cruises, which has plenty experience with the islands, the ships and visitors' needs. The professionals at Golden Galapagos are well- known in the industry for their perfectionism when it comes to planning and operating cruises.

Does an enquiry reserve this yacht?
No. An enquiry asks Yachting Planet to recheck the yacht, price and charter conditions. Nothing is reserved or charged until the charter operator confirms the next step with you.
What is included in the displayed price?
The provider has not supplied enough evidence for a complete payable total. We therefore show only the supported base amount and will confirm every mandatory charge before sending a proposal.
How do I know whether my skipper licence is accepted?
Licence rules depend on the yacht, flag, sailing area and sometimes VHF certification or crew experience. We verify your documents with the operator for this exact yacht before proposal.
Are the nearby weeks guaranteed to remain available?
No. They are shown only when the provider returned this yacht as available, and selecting one triggers a fresh price and availability check. Availability can still change before operator confirmation.
Licence and skipper requirements
The lead skipper normally needs an accepted sailing licence and, in some destinations, a VHF certificate or a second experienced crew member. Requirements vary by flag, operator and cruising area, so we verify them with the selected yacht.
