New cruise matrix helps pick best Galapagos trip

Any trip to the Galapagos Islands is likely to be the holiday of a lifetime. It’s almost impossible to exaggerate the sheer spectacle of these incredible Islands.

Live-aboard boats are the only real way to explore the islands properly, so it’s imperative that your once-in-a-lifetime trip to the Galapagos Islands is as perfect as it can possibly be. Which is why Voyagers Travel has created a new Galapagos yacht and cruise ship matrix to ensure that you select the boat that is right for you and every aspect of your Enchanted Isles adventure is perfect.

With so many Galapagos yachts and boats to choose from, each with its own unique character and facilities, the type of Galapagos tour you experience has a lot to do with the vessel you choose. For example, choose the catamaran Archipel and you don’t just get luxurious facilities, you also get one of the most comfortable rides around the archipelago. Something to bear in mind if you suffer from seasickness and are traveling in the choppier waters of the cooler, dry season from June to December.

The matrix allows you to search and compare all the Galapagos Voyagers vessels, accessing information easily about facilities, reviews, and itineraries. For example, a quick comparison between the Galaxy and the Legend tells you that the Legend is much bigger expedition ship with between 90 and 100 passengers, whereas the Galaxy yacht offers a more intimate experience with only sixteen.

The matrix lets you do this with all the boats in the range to see which will suit your needs the best. Whatever trip you choose, a Galapagos expedition cruise offers up a completely unique travel experience. With only around 170,000 visitors choosing the Galapagos as a destination, the untouched and virgin beauty of the islands still remains intact.

With unique lava formations, turquoise bays, beautiful beaches and lush highlands, everything about the Galapagos is stunning. And that’s before we even mention the incredible wildlife for which the islands are so famous.

The sheer variety of experiences on offer in the Galapagos Islands is the key to its majesty. One day you can be walking with the ancient tortoises in the misty highlands, the next you’re frolicking with playful sea lions in the turquoise Gardner Bay.

Whether you want a rough and ready explorers trip or a luxury yacht experience in some of the world’s most beautiful waters, use our cruise matrix to help you realize your very own Galapagos Islands adventure.
