Pack a ton of adventure into one action-packed week aboard the 48-guestNational Geographic Islander. With multiple adventures each day on land and undersea—including options for walks and hikes, kayaking, paddleboarding, and snorkeling—you’ll be assured of the full Galápagos experience, but in less time. Get close to the iconic wildlife that has no instinct to flee human presence, making for magical encounters. Snorkel with sea lions, hike the highlands among giant tortoises, and see blue-footed boobies and other seabirds up close. As with the classic, 10-day expeditions, honed over the last 50 years, each voyage is crafted to offer you a diverse experience of the archipelago.
Highlights
• Experience all Galápagos offers in just one week, with departures on Saturday and Thursday
• Add a two-night post-expedition extension in Quito, Ecuador
• Snorkel and kayak in rich waters among shimmering fish, sea turtles, penguins, and playful sea lions
• Walk among colonies of wildlife and seabirds unfazed by your presence
• Maximize your time in the islands with options for exploration every day including hiking, kayaking, snorkeling, and more
Arrive in Guayaquil and transfer to the 44-room
Hotel del Parque. Call for recommended
international flights or additional nights at the
hotel.
Fly to Baltra in the center of Galápagos, a little
world unto itself in the Tropical Pacific. We are
welcomed by our naturalist staff and start
exploring the islands. (B,L,D)
Listed below is a sample of islands we may visit
during our expedition. Our expeditions begin and
end at Baltra, and include visits to Isla Santa Cruz
and a careful selection of diverse islands. Each of
our itineraries offers an optimal balance of wildlife,
landscapes and experiences. All ship itineraries
are subject to Galápagos National Park
regulations. (B,L,D Daily)
North Seymour: Encounter nesting frigatebirds,
plus land and marine iguanas, and enjoy a
beautiful coastal walk.
Santa Cruz: Call at Puerto Ayora, the largest town
and headquarters of both the Galápagos National
Park and Charles Darwin Research Station. Head
to the lush, green highlands to see giant tortoises
roaming in the wild.
Isabela: Toast crossing the Equator at Volcán
Ecuador, northernmost of Isabela’s six great shield
volcanoes. Keep an eye open for whales and
dolphins as you ply these rich waters, once the
haunt of whalers and pirates.
Fernandina: One of the most active oceanic
volcanoes in the world, it’s the youngest and most
pristine island in Galápagos—and home to the
strange flightless cormorant and the largest
marine iguanas.
San Cristobal: Search for red-footed boobies and
the endemic mockingbird and lava lizard—found
only on this easternmost island. Explore Baquerizo
Moreno, where sea lions thrive in the middle of
town.
Española: Home to swallow-tailed gulls, Española
mockingbirds, Nazca boobies and seasonally, the
world’s only population of waved albatross at
Punta Suarez.
Floreana: Follow a trail past a rose pink-tinted
lagoon frequented by flamingos. Snorkel among
sea lions and abundant fish, or cruise along
Champion Islet by Zodiac. Visit the famous barrel
at Post Office Bay.
Return by air to Guayaquil, where we enjoy
dayrooms at the Hotel del Parque before flights
home—or continue to Quito for an optional two-
night extension. You may also opt to overnight and
fly home on Day 8 at no additional cost. Ask your
Expedition Specialist for details. (B)

National Geographic Islander II
Vessel Type: Luxury Expedition
Length: 49 metres
Passenger Capacity: 48 guests (in 26 cabins)
Lindblad Expeditions is thrilled to welcome the new, all-suite National Geographic Islander II to our fleet in August 2022. Sleek and elegant, she will sail year-round in the Galápagos Islands and elevate the guest experience to an entirely new level.
A best-in-class expedition vessel that feels like a private yacht, National Geographic Islander II is a spacious all-suite ship. With only 26 suites and accommodating just 48 guests, she sails with a 1:1 guest-to-crew ratio.
Special features include teak decks, indoor-outdoor dining options, an impressive observation deck, and new amenities like a climate-controlled Marina and a high-tech Science Hub.
The new, all-suite National Geographic Islander II provides an authentic sense of place, drawing on our decades of partnering with local communities and conservation groups. Contributing to the fully immersive Ecuadorian experience on board are Ecuadorian staff and locally sourced and sustainable farm-to-table and ocean-to-table culinary ingredients, as well as artisan spa elements and handcrafted textiles, art, and décor all regionally created.
All-Suite Accommodations
18 Suites, 4 Solo suites, and 4 Islander Suites accommodating just 48 guests—all with large windows, convertible king/twin beds with 600-thread count bedding, ample closets, sofa, and marble double-sink bathrooms with a collection of organic amenities crafted exclusively for Lindblad Expeditions. In addition, a stocked mini-bar can be customized to guests’ preferences, and there’s in-room coffee and tea, Wi-Fi, and a flat-screen TV.
Indoor-Outdoor Dining
Fresh, locally sourced, and sustainable farm-to-table cuisine representing all the regions of the country is developed in partnership with Ecuadorian chefs. Plant-based options are available as well and cocktails and mocktails are crafted with ingredients from the islands.
Enjoy meals in the expanded al fresco Patio Café, sophisticated Yacht Club Restaurant on the Promenade Deck, or Grill on the Observation Deck, where there’s also a bar and ample seating to host events. Here, guests gather for wine tastings, chocolate tastings, and Bubble-Qs—BBQs made extra celebratory with Champagne. The convenient 24-hour beverage and snack stations in the Bar and Library are other welcome amenities.
The Cove
The newly reimagined Cove is a gathering spot for pre-dinner Recaps, camaraderie with like-minded travelers, and craft cocktails. Four flat-screen TVs are part of a state-of-the-art communications system for engaging and informative audiovisual presentations. A forward-facing viewing platform invites you to step outside to take in the beauty of the islands.
Science Hub
Outfitted with scientific equipment, the exciting new Science Hub continues the Lindblad Expeditions-National Geographic legacy of supporting conservation and research. Equipped for underway oceanography, interactive video presentations, and an enhanced photo experience, the Science Hub is also a place for young guests in the National Geographic Global Explorers Program to experience hands-on learning.
Expedition Tools
National Geographic Islander II carries a fleet of kayaks and stand-up paddleboards, a glass-bottom Zodiac, an expanded flotilla of versatile Zodiac boats, complete snorkel gear for adults and children, video microscope, Science Hub, and remote ocean view cameras.
The newly refitted teak-appointed marina is spacious and climate-controlled, designed for guests to comfortably get in and out of expedition gear.
Expanded Expedition Staff
The Expedition Team, led by a veteran Expedition Leader, includes a five Naturalists, Undersea Specialist, Certified Photo Instructor, and Certified Field Educators who run our exclusive National Geographic Global Explorers Program for kids and teens.
Public Spaces
The ship’s public spaces enhance the connection to the islands. Guests will find an open Bridge, surrounding teak decks, and a forward-viewing area. Two dining areas accommodate all guests in a single seating. The Cove, which has a bar, is the setting for daily Recaps. Other ship features include a Reception area with glass doors that lead to an open teak Viewing Deck, a Plunge Pool, a Chart Room, the Global Gallery, Library, Marina, Swim Platform, and Zodiac boarding area.
