Cruising
the Galapagos Islands in one of the smaller yachts can be the
most rewarding experience for those travelers who are comfortable
with the small ship concept. The small groups allow guests to
maximize their time at each landing. There is also more time for
snorkeling and swimming - a real barefoot vacation!
