Cachalote Explorer Galapagos

🛥️ Charming, comfortable, first class 16-passenger (8 cabin) liveaboard yacht in Galapagos 🌊 Owned & operated by Enchanted Expeditions ~ Ecuador destination management company 🇪🇨 Come Enjoy a Galapagos Wildlife Cruise on Board the Cachalote Explorer Yacht! 🌊

Originally built in 1988 in Vancouver, Canada, this large and spacious motor yacht was converted into a passenger vessel in the early 2000’

s. This Galapagos cruise ship can accommodates 16 passengers in 8 cabins each with their own private bathroom equipped with hot & cold water shower, and air-conditioning. This charming and comfortable First-Class yacht was built for the rough waters of the Canadian West Coast, so it will provide a stable, smooth and relaxing ride while on your beautiful Galapagos expedition on a small ship tour. The Cachalote Explorer offers the option of 6, 8 and 15 day Galapagos Islands small boat cruise itineraries that visit selected sites which are approved by the Galapagos National Park; each of these is unique, rich and varied and offer the opportunity to experience Galapagos up close and personal with a small group led by a highly experienced naturalist guide. The two 8 day itineraries can be combined to form a 15-day itinerary which we highly recommend for those travelers that would like to have a complete, in-depth Galapagos Islands small boat cruise. The Cachalote Explorer is the ideal boat that replaces the Cachalote I in the Galapagos Islands. Along with her sister ship the Beluga they offer wildlife safari-style live-aboard cruises of the Galapagos National Park. Both Cachalote Explorer and our sister yacht Beluga are owned and operated by Enchanted Expeditions, an Ecuador Destination Management Company (DMC).
