Legend Galápagos Cruise
This 300-ft expedition vessel is a perfect choice for families, or for those looking for a larger ship that offers more of a traditional cruise-like experience for their Galápagos tour. While being the largest size vessel permitted to sail the Enchanted Islands, the Legend is still small enough for a more intimate onboard experience while offering large ship amenities. Families with children offer fun social experiences with other like-minded travelers. With all the conveniences of a larger cruise ship, the Legend will enchant the children and satisfy the traditional cruiser’s dreams.

Our Galápagos experience with Southern Explorations was fantastic. Everything with our trip went flawless from the shuttle pickups to the food and service on our ship to the daily excursions. I would be hard pressed to name one thing that went wrong or could be improved.
