They made a major error in reimbursing credit card charges and refuse to fix it. Will not take a chance that they make another error regarding a trip, just in case the refuse to fix it again!

Competent aware guide with laid back attitude. Accommodations good and it was nice to have the ferry tickets and transfers handled.

- ARick V· September 18th, 2019While I liked the trip and excursions, I felt that we were being told when the daily meeting was going to be instead of asking when it would be convenient.

Asked on June 2nd, 2025I'm hoping to find a Gapagos tour with a single supplement available. My husband and I will be traveling with a single friend. Are there some options you can provide for travel in December 2025? Travel dates are Dec 20 - Jan 4.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written June 2025
We'd love to help you find the perfect Galapagos adventure for your group. Since there are quite a few amazing tours available, the best way to start is by heading to our website or TourRadar and simply typing "Galapagos" in the search bar. This will show you a list of all the available trips, including details like duration, itinerary, and single supplement availability. From there, you can easily filter the options by your travel dates (Dec 20 – Jan 4), trip length, activity level, or style of travel. That way, you'll get a good idea of what's available and what suits your preferences best. Of course, if you'd prefer a little guidance, just let me know: How many days you'd like to spend in the Galapagos, whether you're looking for a land-based trip or a cruise-style experience, and any preferences like wildlife focus, comfort level, or budget range. With that info, I'd be happy to suggest a few great options that fit exactly what you're looking for!
