The Isabela II is a top-of-the-range cruise liner designed for clients who wish to experience the exploratory spirit of a Galápagos Island cruise but in an atmosphere of exclusivity and relative luxury. She has capacity for just 40 passengers (there are 24 crew including three English-speaking naturalist guides) but the scale of the amenities and public areas is normally found only on larger ships.

Accommodation is in 21 lower berth cabins in four room types, all of which have air-conditioning and an outside view. The décor is extremely smart: rooms are decorated in unfussy cream and blue enhanced with generous use of polished wood. All cabins have seats, dressing tables and cupboards, and four cabins have double beds for either single or double occupancy. There is a bar-saloon, dining room, spacious sun-deck and well-stocked library/video room. There is a Jacuzzi and solarium, and a glass-bottomed boat offers an alternative to snorkelling for enjoying the colourful underwater life.

Cruise Itinerary

Recent changes to Galápagos National Park guidelines mean that cruise itineraries now vary greatly from departure to departure. The islands visited on each holiday will be determined by your departure date and the length of the cruise, so we no longer feature detailed itineraries on our Galápagos holiday cruise pages. Our travel consultants can provide you with detailed information about cruise itineraries that apply to your preferred dates, or see our Galapagos FAQ page for more information.
