National Geographic Gemini is a sleek, all-suite expedition yacht offering a luxurious and intimate way to experience the Galápagos Islands. Purpose-built for small-group discovery, she carries just 48 guests in exceptional comfort, delivering Lindblad Expeditions’ hallmark blend of exploration, education and personalised service.

Each voyage aboard Gemini is designed to bring travellers closer to the islands’ legendary wildlife and landscapes. Expert naturalists, marine biologists, and a certified National Geographic photo instructor lead daily excursions, from snorkelling with playful sea lions to witnessing the dazzling courtship rituals of the blue-footed booby. Between adventures, enjoy refined Ecuadorian cuisine, insightful evening recaps, and a relaxed onboard ambience that perfectly balances discovery and downtime.

With her yacht-style design, environmentally conscious operations and spacious suites, National Geographic Gemini is the ideal choice for travellers seeking a more exclusive Galápagos experience with the comfort and sophistication of a boutique retreat at sea.
