Galapagos Tours & Travel

Parranda

Parranda is an elegant, spacious motor yacht. She is great for travelers who want to experience the Galapagos in comfort and refinement. Fitted with stabilizers to make cruising more comfortable, she is fast, allowing for less travel time between the islands and more time on visits.

The salon is ample and elegantly decorated, with large windows that allow the guests to have a scenic view of the outside. Equipped with TV, VCR and stereo, this is the place to enjoy our video and CD collection. Aft of the salon is the dining area, which is open towards the stern of the yacht. It also has a roof and windows on its sides, so that guests receive fresh air but are protected from the sun. The outside deck is extraordinary. Long and spacious, it has comfortable lounge chairs to read, sleep or relax, and is entirely covered by a canopy to offer protection from the sun.
