Can you please let me know the baggage limit for the flights within Galapagos? I see on the website it only states 8 kilograms - what if my bag is a carry on but weighs more than that?

Can you tell me if I can purchase my own airline tickets to Galapagos from Quito or do I need to purchase them through you as part of the package?

Words cannot describe the level of service provided by Guidecuador . I just returned from my 9 Days trip to Galapagos, and it was truly a trip of a lifetime. Every single detail was executed with perfection. The pre-trip documentation was superb, the guides/drivers in each location were so knowledgeable and professional, and our accommodations as well as the service provided at the accommodations was beyond First Class. Most of all, our guide was remarkable! Alejandro was with us from start to finish, and he made our whole journey even more perfect than we could have ever imagined. He was so attentive, professional, knowledgeable, caring, thoughtful, patient, accommodating, smart, funny, and MORE!! Anyone traveling to Galapagos should request that Alejandro be their guide. You will not regret it! Thank you for an incredible vacation. It was utter perfection from the moment we booked the trip to the moment we arrived back home.Show more
