La Pinta

A sophisticated, upscale Galapagos travel experience combining premium service and adventure.

Overview

The La Pinta, which measures 209 feet, is larger than many other ships in the region and offers onboard amenities that you may not find on a small vessel. The 24-cabin ship welcomes up to 48 guests for sophisticated, upscale cruises through the Galapagos Islands.

Life Aboard The La Pinta Galapagos

The team behind the La Pinta knows exactly what guests are looking for and has designed a ship that maximizes your Galapagos experience, starting with spacious staterooms. While you may be content gazing out your large windows, the action happens upstairs on the main and sun decks. By day, soak in the Jacuzzi, peruse the gift shop, work out in the fitness room or watch for birds or whales from several open decks or through the panoramic windows of the indoor observation lounge.

Then, enjoy an evening meal from a menu created by the ship’s Le Cordon Bleu-trained Gastronomic Director. After dinner, head to the library and conference room for a natural history lecture. These nightly multimedia presentations will give you a sneak peek into the areas you will explore the following day and the animals you can expect to encounter. Since your camera roll will be full of snaps of the seals, blue-footed boobies, and frigatebirds you met during the day, take advantage of the complimentary WIFI to share a few.

Excursions From Your Yacht La Pinta Galapagos Islands Cruise

Close your eyes and imagine the experiences you most want to have on your Galapagos cruise? Are you snorkeling amid white-tip sharks and Galapagos penguins? Are you hiking next to a sea lion colony? Perhaps you are you watching tortoises roam wild, or are you walking along lava tubes?

The three itineraries, or five or seven days, offered aboard the La Pinta can turn all those dreams and more into reality. Best of all, because the La Pinta visits many exclusive sites, you won’t need to share the experience with flocks of tourists. In fact, 84% of the time, you will enjoy Galapagos National Park sites without sharing the space with other boats.

You will be able to take glass-bottom boat rides, paddleboard, kayak, and swim in peaceful settings. You will also have the advantage of small-group exploration. Four expert naturalists will guide groups of roughly 12 guests for a guide-to-guest ratio superior to the average of 1:16 in the area. Each bilingual guide speaks English and Spanish, but French or German services can be arranged for groups of ten or more.

Fun For Families Aboard The MY La Pinta Galapagos

Are you traveling with little adventurers? As one of the most kid-friendly ships on the high seas, the La Pinta offers a Pirates Aboard program for sailors between six and twelve years of age. Children are given an activity book with games, coloring pages, and other educational activities, plus stickers and coloring pencils.

Kid-centric activities, including treasure hunts, pirate costumes, and crafts, may be arranged by the staff, depending on the cruise. Kids and parents appreciate children’s menus and games, children’s books, and DVDs in the library. Even bedtime is easier aboard the La Pinta thanks to her flexible room options which include cabins with pull-out couches and interconnecting rooms.

Whether you are a family, a large group with varied interests, the La Pinta is a top choice for your holiday in the Galapagos. In addition to all the other amenities and activities, the La Pinta is proud to provide first-class service. The 27 crew members, all of whom embrace a spirit of adventure, look forward to welcoming you aboard the La Pinta.
