Even though the Endemic is a sophisticated and welcoming vessel, we think that what really makes a trip unforgettable are the people on board. An elite crew committed to the guests’ safety and comfort works on a luxury vessel such as the Endemic naturally. Twelve people make up the crew of the Endemic, which includes a skilled chef, educated naturalist guides, a cruise manager, and seasoned officers.
The Galapagos Endemic Cruise was thought for the maximum comfort for little groups of friends and entire families. The cruise is the perfect combination of commodity, sophistication, and luxury for all your family. Therefore, this is divided into three decks: the main, the upper, and the sky decks. Each with unique features for the enjoyment of the passenger on board.
This platform serves as a place to embark and disembark, and it provides simple, non-slip access to the catamaran. This location is also an area of departure and arrival points for the daily guided tours. After their trips to the islands, the fortunate guests are treated to refreshments, drinks, and hot and cold towels in this charming reception room. This is where the Endemic crew stores our wetsuits, snorkels, and expedition gear. This area is located at the stern of the catamaran on the main deck.
The Endemic’s main deck, located in the stern of the catamaran, features contemporary, well built interior sections such expansive panoramic dining and living room with breathtaking views of the Galapagos. The Endemic interior also features an indoor bar and a coffee and snack station open around-the-clock. The chef somehow turns forth masterpiece after masterpiece, and the crew is courteous and professional.
The Interior Lounge Salon is the closest thing to a home within the Endemic.! It’s got all the comforts of any home, like spacious seating, cozy armchairs, and cushioned sofas. The warm lighting is perfect for relaxing with a good book, and the flat-screen TV is great for enjoying movies in the evenings. Kids love this area, too! They can spend hours watching their favorite movies. This area is next to the Interior Dining Salon.
A spacious briefing area and excursion information center at the bow of the catamaran is where lectures about the Galapagos island’s geography, flora and fauna are given and where the workstation of our Cruise Service Officer is located. Spacious, with panoramic views of the Galapagos environment, warm lights for reading, 2 flat-screen TVs, informative books on the biodiversity of the islands, and even board games you will find in this area.
The bow upper deck features an observation platform and a front-view sun terrace for more space to take in the beauty of the islands and unwind between adventures. Sun loungers, coffee tables, and a comfortable armchair will be more than enough to enjoy the warm atmosphere of the Galapagos Islands.

These are distributed in four golden suites on the main deck and four golden suites on the upper deck. The difference is that the four golden suites on the upper deck can interconnect between them, which is really handy because there’s a door that connects suites. The suites on the main deck are individuals without the possibility of connecting.
There are four suites on the main level. Additionally, there are four suites on the upper deck that may be connected to accommodate large families or groups of friends. With sliding glass doors that run the length of the room and reach the ceiling, they are all equipped with expansive views of the islands.

Moreover, each of the eight suites can sleep two visitors in separate twin beds, or a marriage, or a couple in a king-size bed.
The Endemic’s single stateroom is the ideal addition to the ship’s group accommodations. Despite being somewhat smaller than conventional suites, this cabin nonetheless has its own balcony and all the conveniences of a normal suite.
