The Luxury Peru Travel Company

The Santa Cruz is the finest ship in her class to sail the archipelago today. She’s versatile, flexible and fun, with an excellent crew committed to making her guests’ experience extraordinary.

 

Underwater discovery - We have an extra naturalist guide to the crew - an Underwater Naturalist - who leads guests by the hand during swimming and snorkelling activities, helping them with masks, snorkels and techniques. We're confident far more of our guests will enjoy the ship's snorkelling activities, revealing another world of wonder in the Galápagos that they might otherwise have missed.

 

Expedition equipment - To record our guests' fun in the water, our high-quality staff camera has an underwater housing - and photos of the expeditions are always shown on the last night before disembarking, and all photos are uploaded to websites for future viewing and sharing.

 

Family Fun - We believe the Santa Cruz to be the best option for family journeys, so we've reinforced our commitment to giving families precious moments to share, explore, learn and have fun together. As part of every journey, we include: our "Pirates Aboard" program on board with attractive kits full of materials. kids' meals and times board games and puzzles in the library panga rides just for young explorers an "introduction to snorkeling for kids" time with our extra naturalist bridge visits with the Captain.

 

Our Galapagos Travel Team consists of a Chief Naturalist and seven Naturalists. All will delight guests with diverse natural history explanations, superb on-deck talks, and eye-catching lectures regarding natural history issues. Their multimedia presentations and recaps will complement the day's activities. Together with the Captain, they will plan the day's program. They are masters of Galapagos travel.

 

Soon enough, our Naturalists will become the highlight of your voyage on Santa Cruz. At night, when pitch-dark starry skies are seen, stargazing is an amazing nocturnal activity. The southern skies are beautifully arranged with exuberant constellations.
