    Pricing guidelines for Galapagos Islands

    • Open Panel 

    We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.

    International flights to Quito or Guayaquil will add from about £950 to £1250 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). You will also need internal flights from the mainland to the islands which cost about £375 to £400. A Galapagos National Park tax is payable on arrival - currently $100. A few yachts also offer shorter or longer cruises. Charter cruises are also available. Please ask for details.

    For a specific personal quote based on any tailor made itinerary you have in mind, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help you.

    • An 8 day cruise on a prestige yachtBetween £2000 and £3250
