BOULDER, Colo. - (Business Wire) Comfort-minded eco-travelers will be happy to discover that the Galapagos Islands’ newest luxury vessel has the best guide/guest ratio around. With a mere 16 travelers and two guides – as well as a sustainable approach that includes carbon offsetting through locally-based CanopyCo, dedicated to reforesting Ecuador – Natural Habitat Adventures’ new-for-2010 “Classic Galapagos Aboard the Nina” adventure is a best-bet Galapagos tour for helping preserve the World Heritage in Danger-listed islands. The extra-small-group new “anti-cruise” includes such perks as intimate encounters with wildlife from personal viewing balconies, al fresco dining and a state-of-the-art stability system for smoother travel on a speedy Kat-700 series catamaran – one of the fastest vessels in the islands for less cruising time and visits to outlying destinations.

Natural Habitat Adventures' new 11-day Classic Galapagos Aboard the Nina trip offers year-round 2010 departures starting from $5,595 per person double occupancy, with guest accommodations in 10 spacious deluxe cabins with en suite bathrooms. In addition to comfy, small-scale cruising, the intimate one-of-a-kind adventure includes an exclusive chance to spend the night in a tree house and tented camp amid giant tortoise habitat – as well as World Wildlife Fund-approved conservation education focused on the real-world issues that put the once pristine islands on UNESCO’s World Heritage in Danger list. For details on the 2010 Nina “anti-cruise” – and all of Natural Habitat Adventures’ Galapagos itineraries, visit www.nathab.com/galapagos.
