    Could you please confirm which islands are included in this Itinerary C (Mar 2–5, 2026)? If possible, could you also let me know whether there are any longer Monserrat departures (6–8 days) around early March 2026 — ideally including Fernandina, Isabela, and Genovesa?

    Via Natura EcuadorOperator•Written November 2025

    Itinerary C covers southern Islands. For March 2026, 8-day departures are fully booked. Found a 4-day itinerary Mar 19-22, 2026 covering Genovesa and Santa Cruz Islands. Ideal Itinerary would be D+A, as A covers Isabela and Fernandina Islands.

    Could you please let me know if there's any D+A availability in late February or late March 2026? And if by any chance a cancellation occurs for early March, I'd truly appreciate it if you could keep me in mind and let me know.

    Found a departure Feb 19-26, 2026 covering Itinerary D+A. There is a current hold on a single cabin until November 10. If this booking hold does not get confirmed I can place you on hold.

    Would it be possible to extend the hold slightly beyond November 10, just to allow me a few extra days to finalize my travel plans?

    Do you have anything available between November 14-25th? I'm also wondering about the flight situation (mainland to the islands and back). Some of the tours you list include a mandatory flight charge and some do not.

    Via Natura EcuadorOperator•Written October 2023

    We can issue flights for $525 per person, or you can issue on your own. We highly recommend you to issue our same operational flights so you do not lose connection with the cruise.

  Asked on June 29th, 2022

  Is the price listed for a single traveler having their own cabin? Will this cruise with a similar price be available in February and March 2023? What is the difference between this cruise and a cruise that costs $11,000 for a solo traveler? Does the cost include the Galapogos National Park entrance fees at each island? Is the extra airfare from Quito to Baltra? Does this cruise take precautions to be ecologically safe? Is the cruise focussed on the natural environment, land and sea?

  Price / Availability

  Single supplement

    Price listed are based on a double cabin, with 2 travelers. Solo travelers would have to pay a single supplement which is a 50% additional in order to enjoy the comfort and privacy of a cabin for yourself. We have super promotions at the moment! The price in 2023 for this 8 day cruise would be of $4490 on lower deck and $4780 on upper deck (50% single supplement not included). The Galapagos National Park entrance fee is paid only once, at the time that you arrive to Galapagos airport. You do not need to pay this fee at each island. Galapagos National Park entrance fee is not included, the cost of this is $100. Also, you have to pay the Galapagos Transit Card, which is $20. The extra airfare is round trip. It could be either from Quito or Guayaquil to Baltra and return. Monserrat was specially built to cruise in the Galapagos islands in the most comfortable way while providing the highest levels of safety and care for the environment. The Monserrat is a Naturalist Cruise that focuses on the land and marine wildlife of the archipelago.

  Asked on January 10th, 2022

  We would like to book this trip with the 30% discount. However we have already our own flights booked from Guayaquil to Baltra. So we would like to book this tour for two people excluding the flights. Is this possible?

    I deleted the air tickets from the invoice so you can book the cruise alone. Please, let me know if you have any additional questions or need any further assistance from me.
