Tip Top IV Yacht

From: $3819/ person

Tip Top IV is a fast, modern motor yacht run by the Wittmer family, whose history on Floreana goes back to the first settlers of the islands. That local knowledge shows in the routes and in the service on board.

All cabins have lower beds and some connect, which makes the yacht a good fit for families. A teak sun deck, bar, lounge and library give you plenty of space to relax between visits.

This 4-day, 3-night itinerary starts on a Friday and visits North Seymour, Española and San Cristobal.
