Highlights
New for 2019, the MY Solaris yacht was perfectly designed for first-class cruises in the Galapagos Islands. With state-of-the-art amenities and modern comforts, the Solaris Galapagos can cater to up to 16 guests in 11 en-suite cabins. On the upper deck are 3 cabins with a queen bed plus a single bed and 2 with a queen bed plus a double sofa bed. On the main deck are 1 double and 5 single cabins, making the Solaris one of the few yachts in the Galapagos, which caters to solo travelers with no single supplement. All cabins feature wardrobes, a writing desk, charging ports, reading lights, and panoramic ocean views.
Bright social areas throughout the yacht make great spaces to relax between dives. The indoor lounge is bright and inviting, with comfortable sofas, a dining room, a TV, a fully stocked bar, a library, and a games area. An open-air terrace on the main deck is perfect for enjoying a cocktail while admiring the stunning Galapagos landscapes. On the upper deck is the sun deck with comfortable loungers and an al-fresco dining area where mouthwatering cuisine is freshly prepared and served by the professional chef.
The M/Y Solaris yacht offers distinctive itineraries throughout the Galapagos, which make optimal use of your time in the islands, with visits to 2 sites per day. The onboard expert Naturalist Guide brings nature to life as you enjoy unexpected encounters with unique Galapagos wildlife. Two small inflatable dinghies make boarding and disembarking the yacht easier and faster, increasing the chances of spotting wildlife along the way. Cruises are from 4 days long and can be extended to combine itineraries to make the most of your time in the Galapagos.
Personal attention from the welcoming crew will make all guests feel right at home. Book online today to reserve your Galapagos small-ship cruise.

The solaris being of an older vintage may not look sleek but she was roomy and extremely accommodating
Our guide Roger, was knowledgeable and interesting. The snorkeling locations harboured the expected wildlife and the mix of land and ocean time was perfect. I loved how Captain Francisco was on deck every day with the crew assisting guests gear up and chatting even after making way over night. This says alot. It was lovely hearing the crew chatter and laughing amoungst themselves. Happy crew means happy guests.

- Roomy cabin that exited to the outside gangway. Not too many guests. Always found a space for solitude when required and chat when not. Not too many boats at the stopovers.

This was my first travel experience by boat, but it certainly will not be the last.
Being on board a luxury yacht for the first time. Meeting interesting fellow travelers. Seeing the wildlife up close. Swimming in the Pacific Ocean. Hiking on unique terrain.
