Monserrat, Mid-Range Yacht, Galápagos Islands Cruises

For travellers seeking a relaxed yet adventurous way to explore the Galápagos islands, Motor Yacht Monserrat offers an intimate mid-range option with a warm, friendly atmosphere. Carrying just 16 guests across 9 cabins, the yacht delivers personalised service and a sociable on-board experience, ideal for those who value comfort without excess.

Cabins are air conditioned and feature private bathrooms, with a choice of double or twin beds. Six upper deck cabins offer enhanced ocean views, while generous outdoor walkaround decks provide uninterrupted 360-degree panoramas of the surrounding seascapes. Inside, guests can gather in the comfortable lounge with flat-screen television and DVD player, dine in the dedicated dining room or relax in one of three solariums designed for soaking up the equatorial sun.

With a strong guide-to-guest ratio of 1:8, two experienced naturalist guides accompany each departure, offering detailed insight into the islands' wildlife and geology. A dedicated concierge is also on hand throughout your cruise, providing personalised assistance to ensure every aspect of your experience runs smoothly. Excursions include kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding and snorkelling, with equipment provided on board, ensuring varied and engaging ways to experience both land and sea.

Meals are freshly prepared using quality ingredients, combining international favourites with Ecuadorian flavours. Evenings are relaxed and convivial, perhaps with a drink from the bar as the day’s sightings are shared. After time ashore exploring lava landscapes and wildlife-rich shores, your cabin provides a comfortable retreat, ready for another rewarding day in the archipelago.
