A SMOOTH RIDE
The best way to visit the Galapagos is by yacht and the most luxurious yacht in the islands is the Integrity. With its huge state-of-the-art stabilizers and engine vibration control system, the Integrity will carry you through Darwin’s Islands more smoothly than any other yacht. The vessel is so stable that you can relax in the spa and barely realize you are actually moving!
NATURAL HISTORY EDUCATION
Well-known for top of the line guides and an exhilarating itinerary, your travel on the Integrity will provide precisely the right dose of adventure. Integrity shore visits are carefully crafted to showcase the abundant flora and fauna of the Galápagos. In the absence of mammalian predators, wildlife in the Galápagos evolved with absolutely no fear of human visitors. All staff receive ongoing training in environmental issues and the abundant marine life of the Galápagos. Revel in the experience of snorkeling with penguins, turtles, sea lions, marine iguanas, and a myriad of colorful tropical fish. Or perhaps you prefer to discover the dramatic coastline, at your own pace by sea kayak, or with more speed. Your personal excursion will be as energetic or as relaxing as you choose. Back on board, the comfortable salon is bathed in natural light, perfect for reading or listening to lectures on Galápagos natural history and geology. A wide-screen media center is available for viewing your day’s images as well as your guide’s informative presentations.
