Embark on a ship built with Galápagos Island cruising in mind! From your first briefing, boat drill and launch… to the excitement of your first wet landing… the Isabela II provides you with an exceptional cruise experience as you explore the islands that time forgot in total comfort. Your first night aboard begins with a cocktail hour followed by a lecture to prepare you for your first day of exploration. Afterward, you will have the opportunity to meet and mingle with fellow guests as you enjoy creative Ecuadorian dishes and internationally prepared cuisine under the leadership of a Le Cordon Bleu trained chef. Retire to your comfortable and contemporarily designed stateroom as you fall asleep dreaming of all that lies ahead for you this week.
Rise in the morning for a hearty breakfast that will nourish and fuel you for the exciting day that lies ahead. After a safety briefing, board a panga for your first coastal ride followed by a dry landing and an opportunity to walk and explore. Head back onboard for lunch, where you will rest and replenish before an afternoon of further exploration. Once back onboard at days' end, a recap and briefing will take place before dinner with the ship's naturalists to discuss the days' wildlife encounters along with additional insights and observations. Before retiring for the evening… if the skies are clear… head up to the top deck to star gaze before falling asleep in your comfortable stateroom, as you rest up for the adventures that lie ahead.
