Robert
Asked on June 11th, 2024Would it be possible to stay on the island at end of the tour instead of going back to Quito? Will we see all the natural life and animals available on the Galapagos Islands on this tour or are we skipping some?
- R
Robert
Traveler•Written June 2024Where can I see reviews specific to this tour. I only see reviews about the operator.
ContikiOperator•Written June 2024You have the option to stay on the island instead of going back to Quito on the last day of your trip. However, please note that if you choose to stay on the island, your flight back to Quito will be your own responsibility, as it is not included in your trip. Please be advised that it will depend on the animals you encounter during your stay, but I assure you that you'll see many aquatic animals.

Robert
Traveler•Written June 2024Regarding the flights from Quito to the Galapagos Islands and back to Quito, I understand they are included in the trip price. Is it possible to delay the return flight by a day or two without incurring any additional charges if asked in advance?
- ContikiOperator•Written June 2024
The return flight is included as part of the trip itinerary. However, we cannot delay the return flight, as the flights are pre-arranged as part of the package. If you wish to stay in the Island, your flight back to Quito will be your own responsibility. Please note Contiki tours have an age restriction, and participants are required to be between 18 to 35 years old.
