Galapagos Tours & Travel

Athala

The new luxury catamaran, the Athala, was specifically designed to cruise the Galapagos Islands in style. The catamaran design provides spacious accommodation, superior stability and meets all the latest safety standards.

You are sure to find the layout, furnishings, food and crew to be excellent. Guides are Class III naturalists -- the best that Galapagos tours offer.

All 8 rooms on board are deluxe standard, each boasting spaciousness, superb furnishings, private bathrooms, hot water, air-conditioning, and large portrait windows (not portholes). All main deck rooms have the additional luxury of a private balcony.
