Can you confirm that the July 10th start date actually departs on July 11th? We were originally hoping for a departure on July 13th but can be flexible for the July 10th date if the tour actually departs on July 11th.

The July 10th departure is the Quito arrival date, with the cruise portion commencing on July 11th.

Will the trip go near a waved albatross colony?

April is generally the best time for Waved Albatross.

We have cedulas and we are seniors. What is the discounted price for seniors?

Unfortunately we do not offer any discounts for seniors - we have monthly promotions and you would need yo check out the website to see if there any valid promos.

I have a folding mini electric scooter (30 pounds) that I travel with. I use it when there is extensive walking(5+ miles). It measures 30 inches length, 18 inches wide, 12 inches depth. Will I be able to store this on the boat?

Question: where does the traveller plan to use it? In Galapagos towns and cities it is OK to use but on the trails they won´t be able to use it due to rocks and uneven surfaces. Also, they are checking to see if there will be an extra cost for the flights to/from Quito as there is a baggage restriction of 30lbs max.

My trip to the Galapagos with G Adventures was everything I hoped it would be and more. I had booked the trip in 2019 for 2020 and finally got to take it after two years of pandemic postponements. The days were packed with activity exploring the islands, both on foot and in the water. Our CEO, Omar, was exceptionally well-versed in the flora and fauna, and made learning about them interesting. He was great at documenting our journey and even made us a video to remember it. We were kept well-informed about our options and we were also very well-fed! The chefs were geniuses at providing different snacks each day.Show more

  Traveler•Written February 2022
  I will plan to use the scooter in places like the towns. This way I am able to do some rugged hiking.
- G AdventuresOperator•Written February 2022
  Due the dimensions, there will be an extra cost by the airline. To get the costs associated, the airline needs to know the type of battery of the scooter.
