We were looking for the ultimate Vegan Travel Galapagos experience – and found the incredible Infinity Galapagos yacht which has been launched in 2018. A stunning yacht offering unrivalled comfort, high performance, modern interiors and respect for the environment. Well-appointed accommodation in large staterooms, private balconies and large interiors are only but a few of the unique traits the Infinity Galapagos yacht has in store for our Vegan Travel group. Complying and exceeding with all international safety standards, the Infinity features state of the art safety and navigation for up to 20 guests. Al-fresco dining, sunbathing in large solarium’s, and an interior lounge area for daily briefings.
Cruise the Galapagos archipelago in tremendous style and sumptuous luxury. All eight cabins and two suites have private balconies, a feature not common among Galapagos vessels. We will visit 8-10 different islands where we will hike, snorkel, kayak, sail and swim amongst some of the world’s most exotic wildlife with well-trained naturalist guides.
After rewarding days spent ashore, in the sea and sun (our itinerary includes both a morning and afternoon excursion), return onboard to nothing less than luxury pampered by 14-15 attentive crew members.

(exact details to follow)
How do I book the pre-cruise extension?
Once we finalized all details all booked guests will receive an email with a link for a separate Vegan Travel website where you can book the pre-cruise extension. You will also be able to find the link here at the FAQs.
What Is The Weather Like In The Galapagos Islands?
Located on the equator, the Galapagos Islands are subject to oceanic currents that influence temperatures on the archipelago. The weather is pleasant at any time of the year, making it a year-round cruise destination.
There are two seasons in the Galapagos:
The dry, or garua, season runs from July to December. “Garua” refers to the fog and mist that commonly hangs on the higher elevations during this season. The hot or wet season lasts from January through June, with March and April generally being the wettest months.
What is not included?
What Is The Onboard Smoking Policy?
Smoking is permitted only on the ship’s outer decks in designated smoking areas.
What are the typical demographics of other passengers onboard?
Travelers come from around the world, though all speak English fluently. They range in age from millenials to seniors. Couples, solo travelers, and honeymooners are all common. No one should feel out of place! A vegan journey of discovery not to be missed!
Do cruise rates include international flights?
Cruise rates do not include international flights. We find that it is usually less expensive for travelers to book these separately and this also allows you the flexibility to choose the schedule and routing that is most convenient for you. You can purchase international flights on your own, or we can certainly help you arrange these flights.
Do cruise rates include internal flights and/or hotel before or after the cruise?
The rates online include your all-vegan cruise experience only – all vegan meals while on your cruise, excursions, transfers to and from the ship while in the Galapagos, and the accommodations aboard our yacht. Rates do not include flights to and from the Galapagos or extra hotel nights in Quito or Guayaquil. We normally arrange your flights to and from the Galapagos as well as any extra hotel nights or airport transfers you may need while on the mainland.
What are wet/dry landings?
The majority of islands in the Galapagos are uninhabited. They have no structures of any kind including docks for landings. Yachts will typically anchor offshore and then travelers will take smaller motorized zodiacs (also called pangas) to reach the islands.
On a dry landing, the panga will motor next to a cement or natural rock outcropping and travelers can step out of the panga directly onto the dry land. On a wet landing, the panga will approach a sandy beach and travelers will step out of the panga into ankle deep (or possibly knee deep) water and walk to shore. As all yachts will have both wet and dry landings in the course of an itinerary, it is important that travelers bring shoes/sandals that they don't mind getting wet. It's a good idea to bring a towel along for wet landings so that you can dry your feet and change into socks and hiking shoes.
What time zone are the Galapagos Islands?
The Galapagos are six hours behind GMT (same as CST). They do not observe daylight-savings time so during these months (April-October), they are on MST. The Galapagos Islands are one hour behind mainland Ecuador.
DO I HAVE TO BE VACCINATED (COVID)?
Upon entry to Ecuador, all travelers 3 years and older must provide:
