Three luxurious eco-sustainable vessels pay tribute to Charles Darwin’s evolutionary concepts: Origin, Theory, and Evolve. These deluxe cruises are like 5-star hotels, navigating among the Galapagos islands. They’re comfortable, sophisticated, and stylish. Therefore, they’re worthy of belonging to the exclusive worldwide association of hotels, restaurants, and chefs with the highest quality of tourist services called “Relais & Châteaux”.
These three modern vessels are similar and 30% more efficient than their predecessors. In the same way, all of them develop 7-day tour programs in the Galapagos, causing a lower volume of tourism on the mainland. As if that were not enough, they have a waste recycling facility in the Galapagos. In this way, they reduce their carbon footprint and contribute to the conservation of the Galapagos environment.
The Origin, Theory, and Evolve vessels are characterized by sophisticated design, luxury facilities, and environmental sustainability. They share the same design and are made of four decks: the Finch Deck, The Beagle Deck, The Darwing Deck, and the Sun Deck. Each one hosts awesome facilities and services, which we explain below.
Each vessel has a comfortable and luxurious main lounge on the drawing deck, which is ideal for pleasant meetings, relaxation, and presentations by the captain or the naturalist guides.
On the Beagle Deck, you will find a cozy library. It has specialized tomes and books on the Galapagos Islands, including rare and little-known books by Charles Darwin, the famous British naturalist who dedicated his life to studying the flora and fauna of the Galapagos Islands.
A charming boutique store offers the highest-quality local Ecuadorian handicrafts, each reflecting the colors and textures of Ecuador and its imposing Galapagos islands. It is located on the Beagle Deck.
Staying fit on board for 7 days is crucial and necessary. That’s why, each cruise ship has a well-equipped gym with treadmills, elliptical machines, weights, yoga mats, and even gym balls.
These luxury cruise ships have an elegant dining room with marble tables. Each table seats 2 to 8 people. The dining room is located on the Darwin Deck and offers configurations for intimate meals or group gatherings.
The terrace or Sundeck is fully furnished with sun loungers, tables, and chairs. Twice during the 7-day program, barbecues and pleasant moments are held there. The entire area is covered by a Sun cover large enough to provide shade and coolness.
On the Sundeck, you will find an outdoor Jacuzzi with a capacity for 4 people. This jacuzzi is located close to the edge of the deck. So you will have the best views of the sea while relaxing. In addition, the jacuzzi has an outdoor shower.
Each vessel has two bars. The exterior bar is located in the Sundeck rooftop. There, you can enjoy the most select cocktails and drinks prepared by the specialist barman. However, the most interesting fact is the Intimate Indoor Bar. This indoor bar is open 24 hours, 7 days a week. And it offers a great selection of drinks, cocktails, and refresher drinks.
All cruise ships have satellite Wi-Fi service in all private and public areas. This way, the guest will always be connected.
Laundry service is available in all cabins, without exception.
