Solaris - GALAPAGOS CONNOISSEUR

A beautiful first-class yacht awaits

Perfect for solo travelers

M/Y Solaris provides excellent alternatives for everyone! It’s a brand new yacht that offers some of the best last-minute Galapagos deals. Also, it’s operated by one of the most trusted Galapagos operators so you are in for a treat.

The impasse odd-numbered families and solo travelers faced is a thing of the past.

The brand new First-class yacht features five upper deck cabins. Moreover, these can be configured as triple cabins with a real bed for the third guest. Additionally, it’s perfect for solo travelers who can take advantage of the five single main deck cabins. Furthermore, these single cabins do NOT incur a single supplement for solo use!

Believe me, this is truly a fantastic alternative for these specific travelers, giving them a real option for visiting the Galapagos, by avoiding the ridiculous single surcharge.

Solaris Itineraries

The Solaris has four itineraries to choose from. On the full week – 8 day – B itinerary you visit three of the most iconic islands of the Galapagos; Floreana, Española, and Genovesa. Moreover, you can choose to split the itinerary into 4-day or 5 – day itineraries. B4’s highlight is the northernmost island of Genovesa (aka bird island) and B5’s highlights include the southeastern islands of Floreana and Española.

Connoisseur Tip:

My personal choice would be the 8-day itinerary – A, which does a great route along the western islands. Furthermore, Fernandina and Isabela are the most sought after islands in the Galapagos. On the other hand, if you don’t have an entire week to spend in the Galapagos, I would go for the shorter but still eventful B5 itinerary.

Come one, come all, aboard the wonderful Solaris and experience Galapagos in style and comfort!
