I am wondering if a dive master will accompany us for the scuba dives? We have open water certification only and we prefer to have a guide in the water.

The yours guides who are part of the boat crew must have a dive master certificate since it is a request from the Galapagos national park. The guides always must be in the water with passengers, making sure everyone is okay.

Please confirm how many dives per day there are. Is it 2 dives per day so 4 dives in total? Also is it possible to add any extra dives?

It is 2 dives per day, 35-55 minutes approx.- dive morning (lunch) 35-55 minutes another dive afternoon. It is possible, but you have to present your PADI certificate 30 immersions at least, especially for Gordon Rocks.

How does it work with guides or people of different levels? Example, someone is not even OW, how do we split th group?

Am I able to stay longer and see more of Galapagos? Additional dives

I see that the age range is 18 to 55. I am 57 and interested in the trip. I am in superb shape, have done 3 Ironman races (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, 26.2 mile run) and experienced in diving and open water swimming. Are exceptions allowed in these cases?

Thank you very much for the information, you can book this trip, the most important requirement is to have 25 inmersions of experience at least and present the PADI certification.

I did the Galapagos tour as a private trip This tour was really well organized from start to finish. Wilson was always courteous and endeavored to make everything as pleasant as possible for me. Even when there was a small problem with a local guide in the Galapagos, he was quick to make amends. All his staff were really great. Fabién, the driver was great, Caro, who showed me around Quito and Susana won my heart. I would like to thank Wilson very much for making this trip an unforgettable experience for me and can only warmly recommend this provider.Show more

Our experience with this agency was truly wonderful. We received very personalized attention from a team that was always friendly, attentive, and professional. The places we visited were beautiful, and every day was perfectly organized. Our coordinators, Edwin and Wilson, took exceptional care of us. They always made sure we had everything we needed, explained clearly how we should dress for each day’s activities, and kept us well-informed about every part of the itinerary. We always felt supported and well looked after. The food at every place they took us was delicious and high-quality. The entire tour was so well planned that, despite all the adventures and activities, it never felt exhausting. Overall, it was an extraordinary experience, and we highly recommend this agency.Show more
