M/C Galapagos Seaman Journey is a first class catamaran that began sailing the Galapagos Islands in January 2008. She is a Boutique Yacht catamaran offering superior comfort, size, style, and stability. The Galapagos Seaman Journey makes it possible to enjoy several cruises in the Galapagos with different itineraries that include amazing land tours on most of the Galapagos Islands. During these Galapagos Cruises, guests encounter many endemic species like Galapagos Giant Tortoises, Penguins, Land and Marine Iguana‟s, Frigate Birds, Blue Footed Boobies, and much more! During one of the cruises each guest can enjoy the well-furnished areas offering comfort and privacy. Galapagos Seaman Journey has a maximum capacity of 16 passengers allowing both intimacy and camaraderie at the same time.
We have several resting areas for those who are looking for a quiet place to relax during their Galapagos trip with family and friends in the lazy mid-afternoon sun, or likewise after a busy day of swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, or walking on one of the Galapagos Islands.
To check out the gorgeous ocean views with fellow shipmates, guests can spend some time on the liveaboards' spacious sundecks. Whether they feel like getting a little sun on their vacation, or want the best place to enjoy the gorgeous sunsets over the Galapagos Islands, our sundecks are the best place to be.
For those with a thirst for knowledge, a look in the “book nook” (our onboard mini-library) is always available with a few books about Galapagos that complement what they have seen and experienced during the trip.
For the adults who might want to relax and kick back, we offer a great bar and lounge area where they are served by our bartender who will be happy to attend to all their needs and desires whilst you relax.
The M/C Galapagos Seaman Journey, another jewel from the well known Galapagos Journey Fleet, the perfect combination of adventure, comfort, service and excellence!

Services
The M/C Galapagos Seaman Journey is one of the most luxurious boats cruising the Galapagos Islands. This is due to our dedication in designing the most comfortable catamaran available. We have worked with the same passion and dedication to create a standard of service that is second to none (worldwide).
All of our guides are certified by the Galapagos National Park and have gone through intensive training programs. They have several years of experience and a strong passion for sharing their knowledge of the wildlife, biology, geology and natural history of the islands. You will find that your guide is obsessed with the conservation of the Islands and is very strict when it comes to following and enforcing Galapagos park guidelines and rules. Your guide will be eager to share his knowledge, giving on-sight briefings during your shore excursions as well as evening lectures.
Our shore excursions are packed full of several activities and lots of fun. A typical visit to a landing site includes a nature hike, zodiac ride, snorkeling or kayaking and of course time out to relax on the beach. Throughout these activities, your guide will bring out the best of the Islands, sharing knowledge and fun facts about the Islands natural history.
Our crew to guest ratio is almost 1 to 1 (11 crew members for 16 passengers). We are the only small yacht in the Islands to have a 24/7 cruise director on board. Each of our crew members has several years of experience and share in our vision of offering the finest experience to our guests. We are prepared to pamper you and offer you your creature comforts so that your visit to the Islands is to admire the survival of the fittest without having to endure it.
After a full day of visits you will get to learn a little more about the sights you visited and will be able to ask your guide specific questions about wildlife, geology, marinelife, biology, and other topics that interest you regarding the Islands. You will find your evening briefings are also a great opportunity to get to know your fellow travellers and share anecdotes from the days activities.
You will find that apart from being a spacious and comfortable yacht, the M/C Galapagos Seaman Journey carries state of the art navigation and communication equipment onboard. It also carries snorkeling gear, wetsuits, sea kayaks, a DVD player with a flat screen TV and other amenities for your entertainment.
Each meal on board is a treat for the taste buds as our chef prepares the finest international and local dishes using fresh ingredients of the highest quality. All meals include the choice of meat, poultry or seafood. We can also cater for vegetarians and individuals with other dietary choices and needs. Salads are freshly tossed and fresh fruit is always available. We also have a selection of the best wines from around the world to compliment your meals if that is your beverage of choice. If not we have a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages to take your fancy.
We believe that the key to a great itinerary is variety, the M / C Galapagos Seaman Journey visits several types of ecosystems within the Galapagos Archipelago. You will find that your trip will include several types of landscapes, a good combination of bird watching as well as visits to the marine iguana sighting areas, research centers and turtle population projects. The itinerary is optimized, navigations are short and visits are longer.
