Motor yacht Passion is equipped with all the state-of-the-art safety equipment and is fully licensed to operate in the Galapagos Islands. The Passion Galapagos cruise’s friendly and professional crew will make sure to fulfill your every need during your cruise making for a once-in-a-lifetime Galapagos expedition.
The Passion is outfitted uniquely for the Galapagos Islands and adheres to all Galapagos Island conservation practices. Passion Galapagos luxury cruise also complies with all international maritime regulations and is SOLAS certified.
Passion offers the option of two distinct 8-day itineraries that visit selected sites that are approved by the National Park; each of these is unique, rich, and varied and offers the opportunity to experience the Galapagos up close and personal with a small group led by a highly experienced naturalist guide. The itineraries can be combined to form a 15-day itinerary that we highly recommend for those travelers who would like to have a complete, in-depth experience of the Galapagos Islands. Furthermore, Passion has a dive license allowing Passion to not only visit land sites but also include diving. This can only be accomplished if the whole boat is chartered.
