Originally designed as a fishing boat, today the wonderfully refurbished Monserrat leads exciting and sociable journeys that capture the best of the Galapagos.

Named after the patron saint of Catalonia, the Monserrat enjoys all the benefits of small ship cruising, including a superb crew-to-guest ratio. Guests explore the wonders of these enchanted isles in groups of just 10, with one naturalist guide per group to ensure you get the most out of your daily excursions. Between landings, you can mingle at the bar, catch up on some reading on the sun deck or admire the views from the dedicated observation platform. Each day, you’ll be treated to an ample breakfast, a tasty lunch and a la carte dinner in the dining room.

The Monserrat offers a fantastic variety of routes taking in multiple islands and out-of-the-way visitor sites. All provide amazing encounters with Galapagos wildlife, as well as time for snorkelling, hiking and relaxing. You can combine itineraries to create a unique picture of the islands and the evolution of its native wildlife.
