Petrel offers a first-class way to visit this magical archipelago. Named after a seabird common to the Galápagos, the Petrel is like its namesake: elegant, swift, and silent at sea.
A motorized catamaran, the Petrel is designed for comfort and stability and is outfitted with spacious cabins, a comfortable lounge and Jacuzzi.
The remarkable natural history of the Galápagos is emphasized on board the Petrel, whose highly-reviewed guides are more than knowledgeable about its biology and ecology, in addition to having excellent language skills.
There is a varied menu onboard, including international and local cuisines, designed to accommodate a variety of dietary needs including vegetarians. There is always a choice and at least one vegetarian option.
Featuring a dining room & buffet, a lounge, a fitness area, a library, and a porch.
