The Hermes is a modern, ultra luxurious expedition cruise vessel, specially designed to provide exclusive top-tier service and amenities to adventurers wishing to see the unique wildlife and landscapes of the Galapagos Islands.

Despite its comparatively large size, the maximum capacity is just 20 guests, meaning the 13 suites are all very spacious and contain en-suite bathrooms, walk-in closets, private balconies and a Jacuzzi. There are also plenty of social areas spread throughout the vessel to enjoy, including two lounges, a library, a sundeck and a full-service spa.

The inclusions are another feature that sets the vessel apart. All snorkelling, kayaking and stand-up-paddle boarding equipment, including wetsuits, is complimentary. As are entrance fees, internet access, meals, non-alcoholic drinks, selected alcoholic drinks, laundry service, butler service and access to the VIP area at the airport upon departure (restrictions and exemptions apply).
