Abercrombie & Kent is expanding its portfolio in the Galápagos Islands cruise market.
Preferred partner Ecoventura has added a third expedition yacht, ‘Evolve.’
Ecoventura vessels accommodate 20 guests each, and are the only Galápagos cruise vessels accepted into the Relais & Châteaux collection.
Onboard amenities include a concierge, fitness center, sundeck with loungers and Jacuzzi.
All meals are a la carte and inspired by Relais & Châteaux, with four-course plated dinners and barbecue lunches.
The three Ecoventura yachts rotate between two seven-night itineraries, Northern & Western Route and Southern & Central Route.
These can be combined into a comprehensive two-week trip.
There is a naturalist for every ten guests.
Ecoventura’s sister ships are ‘Origin’ and ‘Theory.
Sustainable features on each yacht reduce fossil fuel consumption by more than 30%.
This is achieved via a stabilizing system and cutting-edge bow design for smoother and faster sailing (up to 14 knots).
In September 2022 Ecoventura installed two new recycling machines on the island of San Cristobal.
In partnership with Avianca, they return 100% of all recyclable materials to continental Ecuador.
