Introduction:
The Isabela II is amongst the most luxurious way to tour the Galapagos Islands. The yacht is fully air-conditioned; all cabins are spacious and have private bathrooms. Its three public decks offer the amenities of a larger vessel, including bar-salon, dining room and sun deck. The library contains a large selection of books on Galapagos and Ecuador, as well as excellent nature and conservation videos, making this reference library the most complete one of all Galapagos vessels. From dining room to stateroom, one senses the superior quality at all levels of service.

The sun deck is comprised of a bar with ample outdoor seating, an observation area for whale and dolphin watching, a jacuzzi and solarium. As an alternative to snorkeling, the glass-bottom boat offers another opportunity to observe the marine life. Our Expedition Team consists of three Naturalists. All will delight guests with diverse natural history explanations, superb on-deck talks, and eye-catching lectures regarding natural history issues.

The passenger aboard the Isabela II will enjoy its three public decks including a bar/lounge, an ample sundeck, an elegant dining room, a reading room and library, a jacuzzi, an observation area, a boutique and shop, and a game room. One GP/doctor is always on board. Our three multilingual naturalist guides will lead smaller groups on island tours.
