Sagitta, Mary Anne, Diamante, Samba, Beagle

First Class Galapagos Boats

S/S Sagitta
First Class

• Solid and stable – she is a superb choice for those who are still finding their sea legs. Enjoy your cruise at a relaxing pace in comfort and casual luxury.

• Her extra-beamy and ample decks allow for great photography and sightseeing while under sail or at anchor.

• She accommodates 16 guests in comfort.

• Accommodations, maintenance and safety equipment meet high standards while ample deck areas, a comfortable salon, personalized service and great cooking enhance the overall experience of a unique journey in these enchanted Islands.

• The S/S Sagitta carries the Angermeyer tradition of first-class cruising.


S/S Mary Anne – A truly classic Sail-ship!
First Class

• Just built nine-years ago, this large and truly romantic sailing-ship, takes on the waves majestically under full sail or power!

• For the true sailors-at-heart, the raise-the-sails moment is an exhilarating experience.

• With ample decks which provide splendid space to relax with friends, take in the sights or enjoy the breeze, she can accommodate up to 16 guests.

• With almost 1,000 square meter of canvas, our MARY ANNE is the best option for sail-ship lovers.

• Launched in 1997, this Barquentine is the most befitting way to visit these Islands in "Darwin's footsteps!"

• A very important plus, the MARY ANNE was specially designed with sound, environmental-friendly cruising in mind.


M/S Diamante – Sleek and gracious...
First Class

• An elegant and classic motor-sailor, the Diamante is ideal for those that enjoy small parties or a family cruise.

• A smaller group on-board also implies an intimate group to explore the wildlife which makes your experience on the Diamante rare and special.

• Spacious for her class, she boasts a fine salon with view and entertainment center, air-conditioned cabins with private bathrooms, hot-water showers and a cozy settee/dinette on deck for meals "under the canopy."

• Like all our vessels, she carries best-available safety and navigation equipment and is specially outfitted for an environmentally friendly operation

M/Y Samba - 78 – foot motor yacht of European vintage

Tourist Superior

• Sturdy, stately and very comfortable, the motor-vessel SAMBA is a true Dutch European classic and best in her class.

• A great ocean vessel with a specially designed high bow, she provides safe crossings and boasts a special stabilizing sail.

• Her main salon and aft dining facilities make her socially versatile while top-side settees and a flush and ample forward deck provide great getaways or extra space for group activities such as stargazing, whale watching or simply sunbathing.

• The SAMBA accommodates 13 guests.

• Like all vessels owned or promoted by Andando Tours, she is graceful, befitting and is very environmentally friendly.


M/S "The Beagle"
First Class

• She is every inch a magnificent schooner with spacious wooden interiors and simple charm!

• Given hands-on attention by the owners, she caters intimately to the needs and comfort of the guests.

• Wide teak-decks and comfortable seating provide access to shady nooks or open spaces for sunbathing, bird-watching or watching the dolphins off the bow!

• Given her size and tending to only 13 guests, The Beagle is ideal for special interest groups, private parties or family cruises.

• The Motor-sailor The Beagle was awarded the Smart Voyager Certificate for adherence to sound conservation practices.

• She was totally refitted including brand new twin main engines in 2004.
