Golondrina
The Golondrina yacht is the most basic of all of the Standard Gringo yachts but does offer excellent value for money in comparison to the others. In 2012 it will be running a varied selection of itineraries including 12 and 15 day options for a real in-depth Galapagos trip!
PAST CLIENTS GOLONDRINA YACHT FEEDBACK
"Great cruise - definately
worth doing the 8days as I saw so
much more! It goes without saying that the Galapagos Islands themselves were totally worth it!" (Evelyn, Canada)
"Thoroughly enjoyable tour
and excellent value too." (Ralf,
Switzerland)
"The yacht, rooms, food and staff
were all great! I would recommend
against doing 5day itinerary "H"
though because the first night in
the hotel takes time away from the
tour and is a raw deal." (Carrie, USA)
"Our 8day Galapagos cruise on the Golondrina
was fantastic. The yacht was lovely
with good facilities and with 14 people
aboard it was the perfect size group
to get to know our fellow passengers."
(Emma Fawcett)
