      Henry

      Traveler•Written August 2025

      We have a certified diver in our party. She wants to know if there will be any opportunity for her to dive

    • Intrepid TravelOperator•Written August 2025

      Diving in the Galapagos is not offered as part of the cruising programs. Due to internal safety policies, our leaders are prohibited from recommending or assisting with booking diving activities. For those interested in scuba diving, it is advised to find a supplier independently and make arrangements outside of the trips itineraries.
