Galaxy Sirius is a sleek catamaran exploring the Galápagos Islands with just 16 guests on board. Accompanied by two bilingual naturalist guides and a dedicated cruise director, guests can discover the archipelago through guided walks, wildlife encounters and water-based activities.
Its black hulls and clean lines create a distinctive presence among the Galápagos fleet, while the atmosphere on board remains relaxed and understated. Accommodation consists of nine cabins, most featuring private balconies and panoramic windows. Shared spaces include a lounge and bar, reading corners, a jacuzzi and a boutique selling accessories inspired by the islands.
Meals are served al fresco whenever possible, with local ingredients at the heart of the menu. Full-board accommodation includes lunch on the first day through to breakfast on the final morning, as well as snacks after each activity, soft drinks, water, tea, coffee and a welcome cocktail. Alcoholic drinks are available at an additional cost.
Days ashore are led by the ship's two bilingual naturalist guides, with opportunities for guided walks, panga rides and snorkelling. Kayaks, paddle boards, wetsuits and snorkelling equipment are all provided. Three different five- and six-night itineraries explore some of the Galápagos' best-known sites, from Post Office Bay on Floreana Island to Tagus Cove on Isabela Island and the wildlife-rich shores of Genovesa.
At its heart, Galaxy Sirius offers a simple yet rewarding way to experience the Galápagos: days spent observing sea lions, giant tortoises and frigatebirds in their natural habitat, followed by relaxed evenings on deck surrounded by the Pacific Ocean.
