Tips and personal expenses
We regularly receive last-minute departure offers.
Give us your possible date range and we will check the current offers in the boat category you prefer.
IMPORTANT NOTE
The boat tour operator reserves the right to modify the itinerary without prior notice due to weather conditions, Galapagos National Park regulations, or exceptional events. To avoid any connection issues, we recommend planning a buffer day between your international flight and your flight to/from the Galapagos, both on arrival and departure.
The Galapagos National Park assigns the itineraries and visiting days for each vessel. By being flexible with your travel dates, you will have access to a wider selection of cruises.
Due to National Park regulations, round-trip flights to the Galapagos are scheduled only in the morning. You should consider that during a cruise, you will effectively lose a little more than one day due to airport formalities, flight duration, and the time difference.
It is important to consider that each boat organizes its logistics with a specific airline. The airlines used are AVIANCA or LATAM. Boats generally require the purchase of round-trip tickets to the Galapagos to avoid complicating logistics. Flight fares vary depending on agreements between boats and airlines. If the client purchases their own round-trip tickets to the Galapagos, be aware that some boats may refuse to sell the cruise, others may apply a penalty that varies depending on the vessel—releasing themselves from all responsibility in case of delays—and very few allow free ticket purchase.
As operators have priority over airline seat allocations, we will take care of booking and purchasing your flights to/from the Galapagos to avoid any logistical issues. You will simply need to inform us of the desired flight route.
