THEORY

Welcome aboard the Theory Galapagos Cruise

Discover intimate adventure on these luxury expedition yachts for just 20 guests, whose ten spacious staterooms afford panoramic views of the passing sea. Lounge in your light-filled spacious stateroom during the day and retreat here in the evenings. The gentle churning of the pacific will lull you to sleep, enjoy the fine bed linens, climate controls and both memory foam mattresses as well as soft pillows that will ensure a comfortable night’s sleep.

Our ships’ interior social areas also include a comfortable lounge for evening briefings and enriching lectures provided by our naturalists. A scholarly library features shelves filled with texts dedicated to the exploration of the Galápagos Islands and the ground breaking works of Charles Darwin, while our high-end boutique sells travelers everything from local handicrafts to essential sundries and souvenirs. Dine at marble-top tables in our dining room. At the stylish bar, mingle with guests over hand-crafted cocktails, red, white and sparkling wines, local beer and fresh juices.
