GALAPAGOS VACATION TRAVEL PACKAGES |
We are now
offering a variety of Galapagos vacation tour packages that include the
Andes, Amazon, and Cusco and Machu Pichu at special discounted rates.
Check our
Tour Packages page for more information
The ships and yachts used
by Inti were designed specifically for exploring the Galapagos Islands
with a focus on the safety and comfort of our guests. Our Galapagos
cruise ships accommodate up to 100 passengers and offer 3, 4, 6, 7, 8,
10 & 14 night cruises. If you are looking for a small cruise ship style
yacht, you may wish to consider our mid-sized deluxe mini cruisers. Our
smaller deluxe, first and tourist class boats accommodate small groups
of eight to twenty passengers and are perfectly suited for the intimacy
of a natural and human history tour of the Galapagos Islands. All of the
ships and yachts we offer are equipped with the best and most reputable
naturalist guides in the islands!
See below for more information
on the ships and yachts we offer and for any Galapagos cruise discounts
or specials...
All of the ships and yachts we
offer are also available for charter cruises in the Galapagos Islands. Yacht
charters are a great way for families and groups to enjoy their Galapagos
adventure with a familiar group of people! Charters may be available from 4 to
15 days.
See below for more information on
charter rates...
We are proud to offer the
Galapagos Sky for dedicated SCUBA
diving itineraries that include absolute best dive sites in the
Galapagos Islands. SCUBA packages are also offered with the Finch Bay Hotel
Resort,
Hotel Silberstein and aboard the
Beluga. Special SCUBA diving cruises
are available aboard the
Nautilus.
Reservations for SCUBA diving must be made in advance.
Check our SCUBA diving page for more information...
Inti Travel and Tours
also offers a wide range of
vacation programs throughout the Andes and Amazon in
Ecuador,
Peru, Bolivia
and Brazil. These include the
Amazon, Jungle Lodges, Indian Markets, the
Highlands, Trekking the Andes, Rain Forest Whitewater Rafting, Bird
Watching, Cusco, Machu Pichu and the Peruvian Amazon. We also offer natural
history cruises and expeditions to Antarctica
including the Antarctic Peninsula, Falklands, and South Georgia.
If you are interested in
combining one of these with your Galapagos vacation (or are only interested
in one of these) please indicate this on your reservation request form under special requests.

environment, wildlife and the well-being of workers and
local communities. |

GALAPAGOS FUEL TAX
Due to Government
measures in Ecuador, many of the ships and yachts operating in the Galapagos
Islands were subject to a fuel tax as of June 1, 2008. The
amount of the fuel tax varies depending on the fuel
consumption for each vessel (not all yachts are taxed) and is identified under rates on the web
page for each ship or yacht to which the fuel tax applies - just follow the links below.

Galapagos
Fuel Tax:
Due to Government measures
in Ecuador, many of the ships and yachts operating in the Galapagos
Islands implemented a fuel tax as of June 1, 2008. The amount of the
fuel tax varies depending on the fuel consumption for each vessel
and is identified under rates on the web page for each ship or
yacht.
Galapagos Flight:
When we reconfirm your reservation for the yacht, ship or hotel
we will make the reservation for the Quito-Galapagos-Quito (or
Guayaquil) flight so you are ensured space on the plane to meet our
boat. Galapagos tickets and boarding passes are issued at the
airport on the morning of the flight. The Quito-Galapagos flight
schedules vary depending on your ship or yacht. Please be advised
that there is a limit of 20 kilos (40 lbs) of checked luggage (per
person) on the flight to Galapagos.
The rates for the Galapagos flight
vary depending on which airline the ship, yacht or hotel uses. As an
example, the Quito-Galapagos-Quito flight varies from $430 US to
$541 US per person.
