I have some questions: 1. Specifically, what hotels or BnB accommodations are included? a. What is the level of service, stars of each one? b. Are hostels part of the accommodation package? c. A private bathe in important for each night, is this guaranteed? 2. Can bicycles be rented and used in place of the 6 hour hike to the crater? a. For other parts of the tour? b. If so, can you make the arrangements and what are the anticipated additional costs? 3. There seems to be inconsistency in the Tour-radar.com site and the cetravels.com tour description. Specifically which meals are included on each day of the 8D/7N tour? a. Day 3 provides a snack during a 6 hour activity. What is a snack? b. Your brochure is 4 years out of date and the meal ratings are poor. What improvement have been made? c. Can you provide a current brochure 4. Taxi Boats a. What are taxi boats? b. why are they needed? c. why aren't they included in the tour? d. how dependable are they, will we waste time waiting for them? e. what are the estimated costs? 5. Where can a read current reviews of your service and performance?

1.- Hotels: a.- In the package price, accommodation is included on each island, only hotels, not airbnb. b.- Regarding the hotel level, the package price is for a budget category. But it is possible to consider an upgrade for a standard or comfort category with an extra supplement. c.- Private baths are guarantee in all hotels categories 2.- Bikes: a.- for the excursion to Sierra negra volcano is not possible to visit by bike since it is a shared service. b.- Rent a bike to visit other places is possible, the extra cost for a full day rent is 36USD, price per person and per day. 3.- Meals: a.- Details of meals included per day of tour b.- Improvements: all meals that are included in the program are the ones that suppliers includes in the excursions 4.- Taxi boats: a - Taxi boats are little boats locals use to transfer people from the dock to the speed boat b.- The estimated costs are 1 USD per taxi boat and per person. 5. Reviews of our programs are received directly from our passengers on the spot, and through our guides.

Would you be able to depart for this tour on either Sunday the 5th of March or Monday the 6th of March 2023?

Yes, our programs for Galapagos could start daily

It says a guide for days 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 is not included. What exactly does that mean? We thought about going on 1 dive. Would that be possible in your itinerary?

The activities for day 2,3,4,5 and 7 it does included Bilingual naturalist guide. Dive is possible to do with our program, we have to replace the activities included in our program either day 5 or day 7, depends of availability of our provider and of course it will have a extra cost.

How do I book Galapagos flights? Is it different to others without online search engines (like Kayak, Skyscanner, Momondo)?

Which airline is best? Only Latam & Avianca because of more luggage allowance.

Back in October we booked an Island tour via Me Gusta Galapagos. We visited the beautiful islands of San Cristobal, Santa Cruz and North Seymour. Thanks to Me Gusta Galapagos we did not only discovered the unique and breathtaking wildlife of the Galapagos; but we also experienced a truly personal traveling experience. We certainly got to know the island life via our local tour guides. It was a once in a life time experience. We went swimming with sealions, discovered all kind of wonderful birds (like the blue footed boobies), were amazed by the giant turtles, spotted several species of iguanas and went snorkeling with giant sea turtles. It was a experience that we will never forget! Besides that, it was a very relaxing holiday with a warm welcome by the Me Gusta Galapagos team. A trip to the Galapagos Islands is a must do!!Show more

  The extra cost to remplace on day 7 for diving is 68USD per person.

  I guess the dive equipment is already included in 68$? What costs the speedboat from San Cristobal to Santa Cruz if we organise the rest on our own?
- Me Gusta GalapagosOperator•Written March 2022
  The cost 68 USD per person extra for diving already include equipment. The cost for only the speed boat is 53 USD per person.
