The Journey I Galapagos Islands cruises are no longer operating. Click to our Galapagos small ship cruises and land adventures for current trips.
Carrying only 16 passengers, the Journey I Catamaran provides guests with a stable, spacious and comfortable voyage through the Galapagos Islands. The shallow draft design allows access to remote waterways where guests have the opportunity for up-close and personal encounters with wildlife. Experienced naturalist guides teach travelers about the flora, fauna and natural history of the Galapagos Islands during daily shore excursions. Time is spent observing the great diversity of wildlife found in the Galapagos Islands, snorkeling in crystalline waters, enjoying idyllic beaches, walking through surreal lava landscapes, stargazing at night from the decks of the ship and much, much more.
Our Journey I Galapagos cruises combine the finest small ships with the most talented naturalist guides and offer a range of activities designed to bring you into intimate contact with the unique creatures and ecosystems of the Galapagos Islands. Spend more time ashore hiking among nesting birds, more time snorkeling with sea lions, or perhaps just relaxing on a crescent beach.
Most Galapagos cruise travelers will require pre and post cruise accommodations in Ecuador, round trip flights, National Park entrance fees & transit cards etc. Choose our Galapagos Cruise Package or work with our experts on a Custom Galapagos Tour. See trip notes for more details.
Galapagos Journey I Cruise Itineraries
The Journey I has three Galapagos cruise itineraries (one 4 day/3 night cruise, one 5 day/4 night cruise and a 8 day/7 night cruise) to choose from. When combined consecutively these cruises equal a 15 day/14 night Galapagos cruise with no repeated landing sites. The shorter itineraries can also be combined in various ways to create longer 8, 11, 12 or 15 day cruises.
For your assistance we have put together a handy guide:
