Close encounters of a rare kind aboard an intimate luxury expedition yacht

&Beyond Galapagos Explorer offers front-row access to one of Earth’s rarest ecosystems. With just 12 guests on board, this intimate luxury expedition yacht sails deep into the archipelago’s wild heart, reaching islands few ever encounter. Whether snorkelling beside sea lions, walking with blue-footed boobies or spotting tortoises older than time, every moment brings you closer to the source of it all. On board, light-filled interiors echo the textures of land and sea. Wood and woven details meet curated comfort, blending refined simplicity with a strong sense of place. Indoor and outdoor lounges flow into al fresco dining and panoramic decks, while a hot tub beneath the sky invites slow afternoons between island adventures—leaving you profoundly connected to where it all began.
