From the worldwide Explorer fleet comes the gorgeous Galapagos Islands liveaboard - MV Majestic Explorer. At 117 ft/ 36m, this hefty liveaboard takes 16 divers on week-long tours around the best dive sites of the Galapagos, including Wolf and Darwin islands.
There are 8 twin or double bed cabins with ensuite bathroom facilities, all flooded with natural light. Guests can socialize in the huge and comfortable saloon/dining area where you can enjoy all the audio-visual facilities, play board games, browse through the library, or have a drink at the bar, with complimentary alcoholic and soft drinks. Alternatively you can relax in the large, partially covered upper deck and enjoy the sea breezes and views of the islands. Sun lovers can soak up the tropical rays, stretched out on sun loungers, or gently simmering in the Jacuzzi.
You will enjoy the dive deck facilities which include nitrox, a wet bathroom, a rinse tank for cameras, a camera table and a recharging station. Your safety is a priority as evidenced in the need for all divers to carry a DiveAlert, a surface signalling device and an electronic lost diver device, all of which are available on board. So if safety and comfort are 2 of your priorities on a Galapagos diving tour, the steel-hulled Majestic Explorer liveaboard has you covered.
Notes: Galapagos is a popular destination with limited liveaboard spaces. We recommend you book well in advance to avoid disappointment.

How to get there: The Majestic Explorer liveaboard dive tours depart from Baltr every Saturday afternoon. Guests fly into Ecuador and take a connecting flight, through Guayaquil or Quito, to Baltra in Galapagos. Passengers flying into San Cristobal must arrange their own transportation to Baltra. Both Guayaquil and Quito have daily flights to the islands, although Guayaquil is recommended with cheaper prices and better-timed connections.
You will need to overnight in Guayaquil or Quito before flying on to the Galapagos. To ensure easy flight connections, a 2 night stop-over is recommended. On the return leg you will probably need to overnight in Guayaquil or Quito since most international flights depart too early to make the connection possible. The flight from Galapagos arrives in Guayaquil (and then Quito) in the afternoon.
We will place your domestic flight requirements with the liveaboard operator who are responsible for booking the flights. We request your patience with this process since there are often waiting lists and slow confirmations of availability. You must inform us whether you are flying into Guayaquil or Quito before domestic flights can be considered. If you wish to extend your stay in Galapagos to enjoy land tours, please decide that early in the booking process to ensure flight availability
For more information see our Galapagos travel information section. The last dive of the trip will be at around 11:00 hrs. Please wait at least 18 hours before flying after diving.
Non-diver rate: None.

Add-on package: Galapagos is a once-in-a-lifetime destination and the above water creatures and environments are just as impressive as below.
