April 29 – May 6, 2012
This full ship charter will be for the adventurous and explorers within us all. The untouched beauty of the Galapagos, situated 400 miles off the west coast of Ecuador is a photographers haven.
This Cruise Includes Everything: This cruise is a lot different from other cruise you may have experienced… this Cruise includes Everything. All of your top shelf liquor and wines are included, best of all, the excursions are included too! Everyday, there will be two sets of excursions, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. Some will be “Wet Excursions” (snorkeling with penguins, exploring the coasts with turtles and sea lions) and other ones will be “Dry Excursions” that will explore the interior of the islands and wildlife.
Each day brings new ports with new adventures. Guided tours, snorkel and scuba or you can sit on the deck with a mimosa in hand and watch your fellow passengers go on their way.
This trip will book very quickly, the ship has only 45 cabins! Intimate yet it still has a lot of the amenities of any Celebrity ship.
We use the JW Marriott Hotel in Quito, Ecuador, staying 2 days before and one day after the cruise is the minimum we recommend, as you will want at least one day to tour Quito.
Flights:
We have already arranged a charter flight from Quito, Ecuador to Baltra, Galapagos. Everyone will be on the same flight. Price US$575.00 per person (which includes transfers to and from the ship)
Itinerary:
Cruise is 8 Days and 7 Nights – Leaving from the Port of Baltra, Galapagos, on board the Xpedition with one of the best crews you’ll ever experience. They will custom fit you with a wet suit when you arrive, they will host a special celebration when you cross the Equator, they will have classes to teach you about the islands and they will lead you on the excursions as you walk on land that few will ever see. This cruise INCLUDES all excursions and ALCOHOL in the pricing!!

Optional Maccu Pichu Tour: After the cruise, we will have an optional 5 day trip to Maccu Pichu, Peru. Machu Picchu is a city located high in the Andes Mountains in modern Peru. It lies 43 miles northwest of Cuzco at the top of a ridge, hiding it from the Urabamba gorge below. Machu Picchu (which means “Old Peak”) was most likely a royal estate and religious retreat. It was built between 1460 and 1470 AD by Pachacuti Inca Yupanqui, an Incan ruler. Machu Picchu is comprised of approximately 200 buildings, most being residences, although there are temples, storage structures and other public buildings. It has polygonal masonry, characteristic of the late Inca period.
This unique excursion is a “Must See” for those traveling to this region. Both the Galapagos Islands and Maccu Pichu are two of those “Bucket List” destinations for those looking for unique and fulfilling travel destinations.
Early Bird Price Guarantee: If you place a deposit now on the cabin of your choice, at the published price, the cruise charter company guarantees that if any lower prices are announced by the charter company at a later date, the same lower price will be extended to your reservation. So unlike other events, you will not be penalized for making your reservation early! Instead you will have the cabin of your choice. This is a HUGE PLUS in making your reservation early. You have a complete price assurance.
