Galapagos Islands Tours and Cruises

We offer many different Galapagos Islands cruises to choose from, ranging from tourist class to deluxe class. Several of these ships have 3, 4 and 7 night itineraries, though many only offer 7 nights. For those of you who don't like to overnight on boats, we also offer a land-based options for Galapagos Islands tours, either based in a hotel on one island or island hopping to several islands. We also offer Galapagos multisport tours

There are 2 seasons for Galapagos Islands travel, though the seasons are mainly tied to mainland occurrences because there is always something to see and do on the Galapagos. Low Season is May, June, September, October and some boats offer discounted rates then. September is probably the time when the sea is the least calm.

To the prices indicated for the various options, you must add park taxes of approximately $100 and airfare. When you book the cruise or land option, the air to the islands is automatically booked for you.

As of June 1st, 2008, fuel prices for Galapagos Islands operators will be increased by as much as 150%
as per the decree, signed by the President of the Country and by the Minister of Tourism., so some ships are now charging fuel supplements.

See current Galapagos Islands Cruise specials at bottom of the page
(also check with us because it's hard to keep up with all of the special notices that we get from operators)
