Overview

The Passion Galapagos Cruise vessel was originally designed for use as a private yacht. It has since been renovated to suit the needs of up to 12 guests, with four staterooms and two suites. It still maintains its original character, with rose marble and teak wood finishings.

The Passion, originally called “Bellisima” (the Beauty in Italian), offers a relaxed ambiance and exclusivity. The concept of the renovation was created with family escapes and private charters in mind. The yacht offers exceptional space and comfort for its twelve guests. Some of its key features include large social areas, a formal dining room, expansive terraces for open-air dining and sun-bathing, and a relaxing jacuzzi.

With a crew of twelve, the M/S Passion offers incomparable client attention at a 1:1 ratio.
