Ultimate Galápagos

Explore the enchanted Galápagos Islands aboard the National Geographic Endeavour II, a purpose-built expedition ship that blends modern comfort with true exploration. At 236 feet in length and accommodating just 96 guests in 52 outside-facing cabins and suites, this nimble vessel offers an intimate, expertly guided journey through one of the most ecologically fascinating regions on Earth.

Each cabin is thoughtfully designed with large windows, private bathrooms, individual climate control, and ample storage. Select suites offer additional space and upgraded amenities, while families and groups will appreciate the availability of connecting cabins and triple accommodations. The ship’s understated, modern interior creates a welcoming atmosphere that complements the immersive experience ashore.

Onboard, guests enjoy a range of inviting spaces, including a spacious lounge for daily briefings and enrichment talks, a library stocked with regional reference materials, a fitness center, and an open-air observation deck ideal for wildlife viewing and stargazing. The dining room features freshly prepared cuisine influenced by Ecuadorian flavors and crafted from locally sourced ingredients, served in a casual, open-seating environment that encourages camaraderie among travelers.

The Endeavour II is fully equipped for hands-on exploration, carrying a fleet of Zodiacs, kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, a glass-bottom boat, and snorkeling gear. A team of expert naturalists, certified Galápagos Park Guides, and a National Geographic-certified photo instructor lead daily excursions, offering guests close-up encounters with iconic species such as giant tortoises, marine iguanas, blue-footed boobies, and Galápagos penguins.
