My most recent experience in the Galapagos aboard the M/Y Letty
Letty has become one of my favorite yachts in the Galapagos because I recently enjoyed a 5 day cruise onboard. It was fantastic! I had a wonderful time cruising the islands onboard the Letty with its friendly staff and incredible guide. Onboard the Letty you feel at home, the staff caters you every need and the naturalist guide is always trying to make your experience on the islands memorable.
