The Monique Mega Catamaran - Galapagos Luxury Cruise

Days: 8, 5 & 4 | From: $4,190/per person

Among the newest luxury yachts cruising the Galapagos, the Monique Mega Catamaran gives guests a close, immersive look at one of the world’s great natural treasures. Voyages take in some of the archipelago’s best-known islands, including Santa Cruz, Isabela, Santiago, Rábida, and Fernandina, with expert naturalist guides sharing the story behind each stop. Along the way, you’ll encounter remarkable wildlife and dramatic scenery at highlights like Las Bachas Beach, Tagus Cove, and Vicente Roca Point.

Created for travelers with high standards, the Monique pairs contemporary comfort with environmentally conscious operations, so your journey is both polished and responsible. Explore hidden coves, unspoiled beaches, and thriving wildlife habitats, all supported by warm, attentive service. Each day brings something different, from the bird populations of North Seymour to the lava landscapes of Sullivan Bay, making for an experience that is as rewarding as it is memorable.

Gourmet Dining Onboard

Dining on the Monique is a highlight in its own right. Our chefs prepare a balanced menu of regionally inspired and international dishes, using fresh, sustainable ingredients and elegant presentation that reflect the character of the Galapagos. Every meal is a journey for the palate, full of vibrant flavors, beautiful plating, and our trademark luxurious touch.

  • Regular 4-, 5-, and 8-day departures run year-round

  • Private charters of the Monique are also available

Maite was extremely helpful and professional to book a trip of a lifetime to Peru and the Galapagos!! She is very responsive and on top of making sure everything runs smoothly and that the trip caters to our wants/needs.

— Brittany M.

The travel gods were looking out for us as we made our way through without a hitch. We felt so confident in their expert help it was a relief to travel in Covid times with their back up. I highly recommend this company.

— Hazel K.

The best trip and every aspect Maite (the trip designer) and the company handled was excellent. The only way it could have been better, is if I had more time away from work. Gracias.
