Galapagos Legend
per person
OVERVIEW
Key Features:
- Spacious social areas including a small pool
- Up to seven naturalist guides on board
- Highly-trained crew
- Stable cruise
Overview:
With a capacity for up to 100 guests, the M/V Galapagos Legend is one of the largest boats that cruise the Enchanted Islands. However, it is still small in comparison to cruise ships at other destinations and guarantees a familiar experience with high-quality attention.
The Galapagos Legend’s 56 comfortable cabins and many social areas are spread over four decks. You may choose from different cabin types from convenient interior cabins to luxurious suites with balconies. The motor vessel’s social areas include an al fresco dining area, a boutique, a Jacuzzi, a swimming pool and a small fitness room amongst others. The Galapagos Legend also features a glass bottom boat for travelers who do not feel comfortable swimming but do not want to miss out on the underwater wildlife.
The comfort of interconnected cabins and quadruple rooms, the swimming pool and the kid’s corner, make the M/V Galapagos Legend an excellent choice for families.
Most naturalist guides on board are English- and Spanish-speaking, but upon request, the Legend can hire guides in other languages as well. Ask your Galapagos expert about tours guided in German, French or Italian without surcharge.
