Alta Galapagos Luxury Cruise

Very few feelings compare to that of a ship sailing through the water, with engines turned off and nothing but the sound of the wind hitting the sails and the hull breaking the water. Alta is one of the few ships in Galapagos that can deliver this feeling. One of the most beautiful ships in the Galapagos, the Alta is ideal for travellers seeking exclusivity, style and uniqueness. The ship has gorgeous detailing and furnishings and carries that grandeur and special charm that only sailing ships have. When the conditions are appropriate, the sails will be hoisted, engines turned off and Alta will become one the most striking ships in the Galapagos.
