We are a family of 4 traveling for NZ looking for a galapagos cruise for upto 7 days between 15/12/24 and 8/1/25. I don't want an absolute budget tour with v basic accommodation but can't afford first class either. What star rating are the hotels you provide and what is the nature of the accommodation on your boats? We would want our own private spacious berth with ensuite and ensuite clean good quality hotel rooms.

This is an Island hopping option, I mean hotels + activities in described itinerary. This option includes tourist class hotels. If you want we can upgrade with tourist superior like Sapaya hotel in San Cristobal and Hotel Flamingo in Santa Cruz with another price. Would you like a quote with these hotels?

These have been some fantastic days filled with experiences I’ll never forget. Every day was different; different species, different snorkling. We always got enough time to enjoy everything. The guides on the boats were great. I liked staying on the islands to get a feeling for the towns and the people. Hope to come back!Show more
