Ship: While the cabins and social areas of these three luxury yachts are identical in design, the key distinction lies in the construction dates of Origin, Theory and Evolve yachts. Origin first set sail in 2016, Theory in 2019 and Evolve in 2023, and all offer an exclusive group of 20 guests a lavish experience.
Amenities: Across four decks, you can expect a sun deck with day beds, inviting chaise lounges, an outdoor shower, a wet bar and a four-person Jacuzzi. Indoor social spaces include an intimate bar, a cozy library, a fitness center and a boutique offering essentials, handicrafts and souvenirs. You’ll also have access to 24/7 Wi-Fi, as well as kayaks, paddle boards, wet suits and snorkeling equipment for an afternoon of adventure.
Crew: 13 crew members, including a dedicated concierge and two knowledgeable naturalist guides provide you with exceptional service on board.
Dining: Each of these vessels is home to two dining spaces, including an elegant dining room where you can savor four-course dinners and a laidback al fresco space on the sundeck where lunch is often served. Expertly prepared by Relais & Châteaux Chefs, menus feature fresh and locally sourced ingredients across gourmet Ecuadorian and Peruvian dishes.
Rooms: Origin, Theory and Evolve each boasts 10 designer accommodations with panoramic windows and twin or king-sized beds depending on your preferences, with four interconnecting rooms for families. Each space features large windows, ensuite bathrooms, and a tea kettle and espresso machine. Deluxe double staterooms are 13.5 m2 in size and offer two twin beds that can be conveniently converted into a king-sized bed. Plus, those staying in suites can enjoy free laundry service.
Itineraries: Select from two spectacular seven-night itineraries, or combine both for an epic 15-day exploration of the entire archipelago on one of the most luxurious Galapagos ships. One sailing follows the southern and central route, with opportunities to spot giant tortoises in the highlands of Santa Cruz, and kayak alongside and swim with sea lions at Cerro Brujo and Gardner Bay. The other sailing explores the northern and western routes, with opportunities to snorkel with penguins on Isabela Island and get up close to the otherworldly volcanic features of Fernandina Island.
