Why this sailing stands out

A nine-night Ecuador and Galápagos expedition built around a private 16-guest yacht charter. Wildlife gets the headline, the small gay group gets the yacht, and nobody needs to pretend a frigatebird is less interesting than another buffet.

Quito and Guayaquil frame a Natural Paradise route through San Cristóbal, Santa Cruz, Genovesa, Santiago, Rábida, and Bartolomé.
Out Adventures caps the group at the yacht's 16-guest capacity.
The fare is published per person based on double occupancy; confirm the cabin, internal flights, and final inclusions.
