    The trip offers the full program on the Galapagos Islands. You get a very varied insight into the flora and fauna and the different islands. The almost daily tours are long but great and you meet many people. Nevertheless, there is also time for your own activities and free time. Everything was super organized, from the transfer, the hotels and the tours. And I liked the hotels very much. Would definitely recommend the trip.

    Brett

    Asked on May 12th, 2023

    I'm very interested in this tour but the departure date is one day off. I need to leave Galapagos island on August 5 but this tour leaves on August 6, 2023. Can you please find out if your operator can adjust the departure by one day for example leave on July 29, 2023 instead of July 30, 2023.

    Tour Details
    • True Ecuador TravelOperatorWritten May 2023

      Of course, we can adjust and start a day before. I am going to add an additional departure with that date so that you can book it.

    Tara

    Asked on April 24th, 2023

    Are all activities listed under the day-by-day description included in the price? Are snorkelling, hikes, access etc included? I do not swim well at all; is snorkelling still possible / recommended or would I be better off not doing it? Do you provide life vests during snorkelling?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • True Ecuador TravelOperatorWritten April 2023

      Activities include snorkelling, hikes, transportation and guide. When you go to Isabela or San Cristobal not included the water taxis $1 each, you pay directly. Don't worry if you can't swim, they always have a life jacket and the guide is there to help you with whatever you need. It is very nice to snorkel even if you don't know how to swim.

      TravelerWritten April 2023

      I am travelling alone but I would be fine to share a room with another woman; is that possible or do you charge a mandatory single supplement? Could you please confirm that the tours are group tours? How many people on average do you expect in each tour in May?

    • True Ecuador TravelOperatorWritten April 2023

      The price is in a shared room, but if there is no other person for you to share a room with, I can give you the same price as long as the trip is before June. Activities are always shared, maximum 15 people on daily tours.

    Rebecca

    Asked on January 2nd, 2022

    Is possible to remain on the islands before/after the tour? will there be additional costs I would have to pay to do this (other than hotel), e.g island tax or something similar?

    Flights / Transfers
    Tour Details
    • True Ecuador TravelOperatorWritten January 2022

      Flights to and from Galapagos do not include. If you want to stay on the islands before or after the tour, of course it is possible. We can guide you in what to do additionally. Normally the tour ends with the transfer OUT, but if you want to stay longer we can coordinate for that transfer to do it when you want to return. On additional payments there are none. Only your accommodation, food and activities expenses that you want to do outside of the program.
