The Solaris First Class Yacht has a lot going for it. To start, she is taking over the much-loved itineraries from a recently retired sister ship, guaranteeing the best Galapagos excursions and making your Galapagos trip planning that much easier. The cruise social areas feature modern, fresh, clean design in a neutral palette, with scenic sitting areas both inside and out, including: a generous lounge area with panoramic windows, comfortable sofas and chairs, and a large-screen TV; a library, where you can read up on Galapagos or play games with the kids; and, of course, a dining room where you will feast on abundant, delectable international and South American cuisine using fresh ingredients sourced locally as much as possible. Step outside to her fabulous sun deck with its own bar. It’s a great place to relax after kayaking or snorkeling.

The well-experienced crew, drawn from her former sister ship, includes a cruise director who will manage your onboard experience, as well as a naturalist guide who will accompany you on numerous exciting daily outings. And even better, this incredible experience comes at a midrange price for its category, which means that you get a great adventure at a great price.

The Solaris can hold a maximum of 16 passengers in her 10 large cabins: 5 upper deck cabins are doubles with the possibility of adding an additional single bed, making triple accommodation available, and 5 main deck cabins are designated as single cabins with no sharing. There is no single supplement on the Solaris so she is really solo traveler friendly. Her tastefully decorated cabins reflect the overall casual yet elegant ambience of the whole ship. They feature private bathrooms with hot-cold showers, individual climate controls and lots of storage space for clothing and luggage. All of these options make her a perfect choice for couples, families and solo travelers alike.
