Galapagos Exclusive Use | Galapagos Luxury Cruise
Tour the Galapagos Islands Aboard Integrity – At a Price Adjusted for the Size of Your Small Group
Exclusive Use is a private Galapagos Islands tour for guests who wish to explore with only their favorite travel companions, no matter the size of your group. While a traditional charter is perfect for larger groups, we know that one size doesn’t fit all when it comes to your ideal travel companions. This is why, for groups of between 4 and 12 guests, we’ve created Exclusive Use — an option where the price is adjusted to the size of your party. Connect with your loved ones, your best friends, or your closest family all while immersing yourselves in the wildlife of the Galapagos Islands.

Your small group will have the luxury of Integrity all to yourselves.
