Hurtigruten Expeditions is to offer cruises to the Galapagos Islands for the first time next year.

Hurtigruten Expeditions' Santa Cruz II will operate the trips

The first itineraries featuring the archipelago, which is 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador, will leave in January 2022.

An 11-day holiday, including flights from the UK, leads in at £7,595. A 13-day itinerary, including Peru’s Machu Picchu, starts from £9,395.

Hurtigruten Expeditions has entered a long-term strategic partnership with Ecuador-based Metropolitan Touring, described as “the most experienced and renowned travel company in the Galapagos”.

Guests will sail on Metropolitan’s upgraded and reliveried 90-guest MS Santa Cruz II.
