    Asked on April 2nd, 2025

    I cannot swim. Would alternate activities be available when there is snorkeling/swimming? Are life jackets provided for boat activities?

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • On The Go ToursOperator•Written April 2025

      That is not a problem if you cannot swim, as you can opt to not partake in the snorkelling/swimming. Regarding what alternatives you can do, that is something that you would discuss with your guide upon arrival for the start of your tour. Life jackets will be provided.

    Asked on December 9th, 2024

    I will be leading part of a medical mission trip to Quito in March. I was inquiring about the possibility of a short duration tour of the Galapagos leaving Quito March 29th lasting only a few days as I need to get my daughter (14) back as soon as possible due to school schedule. It would probably just be the 2 of us, potentially could add a few others from the team.

    Tour Details
    • On The Go ToursOperator•Written December 2024

      The tour you have inquired on is the shortest trip we have - which is 5 days/ 4 nights. If you want to go later we have the 01st April -05th April 2025 - would this work? Another option would be the Galapagos discovered tour which starts 31 - 05th April.
