The Biggest Advantage of a Galápagos Cruise
The biggest advantage of a Galápagos cruise is access. Cruises can reach remote, completely uninhabited parts of the archipelago such as Fernandina, western Isabela, Genovesa and Española—some of the finest wildlife destinations in the islands, and places that are difficult or impossible to visit on an ordinary day trip from the towns. Cruises also use your time extremely efficiently, travelling while you eat, rest or sleep, with accommodation, meals, transport, guiding and activities built into one continuous itinerary. The trade-off is that cruises are expensive, highly structured and offer far less flexibility than a land-based trip. ________________________________________________________________________________ Planning a trip to the Galápagos Islands? 🏝️ Paul McFarling is a Galápagos guide and tour organiser with over 30 years of experience helping travellers explore the islands, wildlife, landscapes, and natural history of this extraordinary destination.
