Hermes Galapagos Islands Ultra Luxury Catamaran

GALAPAGOS LUXURY CATAMARAN

WELCOME TO HERMES MEGA CATAMARAN – Galapagos’ First Ultra-Luxury Cruise

Hermes Mega Catamaran is the first Ultra-Luxury Cruise to sail in the Galapagos Islands. With a guest capacity capped at 20 guests, Hermes provides an unrivalled experience through exclusivity, high-end amenities and a crew to guest ratio of almost 1 to 1.

All of our Suites feature their own private balcony and private jacuzzi overlooking the ocean. Enjoy from our premium beverage menu complimentary during your stay. Relax after a day of discovery on the islands with the pampering of our butler service or from purification in our Hammam with views to stunning Galapagos’ landscapes.

Expedition Hermes Mega Catamaran was specially designed to explore the Galapagos Islands and offer you a close encounter with nature, and our itineraries include at least two archipelago highlights per route. In this manner, you visit the most remote sites on the Enchanted Islands and observe species making these the best place for wildlife on Earth.

On land, two experienced naturalist guides escort small groups, up to 10 guests, during the excursions. You have a closer interaction with them, and they have time to give you a more in-depth explanation to your questions. You can find walking sticks in your suite in case you need them for this activity.

Hermes is also fully equipped to offer you memorable moments in the water. We have wetsuits and snorkeling equipment available in all sizes to jump in the water and play with the unique marine wildlife of the Galapagos. You also have kayaks and SUPs available for a different experience in one of the most pristine waters in the planet. Otherwise, you can observe marvellous sea turtles, playful sea lions, or any other marine species from our glass bottom boat if you prefer to avoid the water.
