Originally built in Spain, the M/V Isabela II was one of the most luxurious yachts operating in the Galapagos Islands for several decades and still has stunning marvels to her; she has proven to be among the most popular choices to discerning Galapagos Island travelers who choose to take the 7-night Galapagos cruise itinerary option. The Galapagos Isabela II yacht was designed and built specifically for the longer 7-night Galapagos cruise expeditions and she will help you make the most of your Galapagos vacation. During the 7-night cruise itinerary, no islands are visited twice which is a very important item to consider when planning you vacation!

 

The atmosphere aboard the Isabela II is that of an elegant yacht. It is still one of the most luxurious means of touring the Galapagos Islands. This well appointed yacht is fully carpeted and air-conditioned. A seasoned Captain, dedicated crewmembers and three experienced English-speaking naturalist category-3 guides attend to the details of your Galapagos cruise. Each naturalist takes passengers on all shore excursions / Galapagos Island “visitor sites” and shares extensive experience and insights which can only be told from years of experience that the Galapagos guides personally have.

 

The Isabela II bar and lounge is a popular gathering spot to take in the Galapagos breezes and fresh air; fresh fruit squeezed drinks are set out for passengers as they return from excursions in the islands. The sun deck is comprised of a bar with ample outdoor seating, an observation area for whale and dolphin watching, a Jacuzzi and solarium. As an alternative to snorkeling, the glass-bottom boat offers another opportunity to observe the Galapagos rich marine life.

 

The library contains a large selection of reference books on the Galapagos Islands and Ecuador mainland. The vessel also carries an extensive collection of conservation videos; making this reference library the one of the most complete sources of information of any Galapagos Islands cruising vessels.
