Galapagos Islands Cruises

Located off the western coast of Ecuador, the Galapagos Islands are a chain of islands that straddle the equator. In the late 1970s the Galapagos Islands were classified as on of the first World Heritage Sites, largely down to the fantastic wildlife that can be found there. Largely unspoilt, this remote collection of small islands, each one seemingly unspoilt yet boasting it's own rugged charm and beauty is ideal for adventure cruises.

We recommend a Galapagos Island cruise if you are looking for a cruise holiday with a difference. Each of the islands that make up the Galapagos varies in terms of climate, terrain, and wildlife and as such, there is a lot to see and do.

When on land, visit the Darwin Research Centre on Santa Cruz or explore islands such as Bartolome and Isabela which allow you the opportunity to get up close with some of the world's most seldom-seen species of wildlife, including birds, lizards, penguins and curious sea-lions. Some cruise lines offer an assortment of water-sports, which are also well worth taking part in as the Galapagos Islands has one of the largest cross-sections of marine life in the world, from seals to sharks and a myriad of colourful fish and coral. No matter what you decide to do on your Galapagos Islands cruise, you will discover for yourself that cruising the Galapagos Islands is almost like going back in time to a pre-historic era.

At The Cruise Line we have range of fantastic cruises to the Galapagos Islands, including luxury cruises with Silversea Cruises and the Yachts of Seabourn. If you are looking for something a little more ‘of the beaten track' then why not book a cruise with Haugan Cruises, one of the world's leading upscale adventure cruise specialists for Galapagos Islands cruises.
