ENRICH YOUR GALAPAGOS EXPERIENCE
SUPPORT DESIGNED AROUND YOU
Sometimes it is the small details that make the biggest difference.
Accessible travel in the Galapagos requires more than simply choosing the right activities. Transportation, accommodation, equipment, assistance, timing and even the way you enter a boat or access a visitor site can all affect your experience.
Because every traveler is different, we can build additional support into your journey based on what you need. Our local knowledge allows us to look at the complete trip and plan the details in advance, helping you travel with greater confidence and enjoy the islands at your own pace.
Enrichment & Support Options
PERSONALIZED ACCESSIBILITY PLANNING
Before you travel, we'll take the time to understand your mobility, abilities and comfort levels. We can then look carefully at each part of your itinerary and explain what to expect, where assistance may be needed and which experiences are best suited to you.
SPECIALIZED MOBILITY EQUIPMENT
Depending on your itinerary and individual requirements, specialized mobility equipment may be available to assist with beaches, uneven terrain and other areas where a standard wheelchair may be difficult to use.
ADDITIONAL GUIDE & ASSISTANT SUPPORT
Additional support can be arranged when required. Having extra assistance available can make transfers and activities easier while giving you and your travel companions greater freedom to enjoy the experience.
ADAPTED WATER EXPERIENCES
For travelers who want to experience the incredible marine life of the Galapagos, we can consider suitable snorkeling and water activities based on your abilities and confidence, with additional assistance and flotation equipment where appropriate.
CAREFULLY SELECTED ACCOMMODATION
Accessibility varies considerably between hotels in the Galapagos. We'll consider your individual requirements when selecting accommodation, including room location, steps, elevators, bathroom access and ease of getting to and from your room.
PRIVATE TRANSPORTATION & TRANSFERS
Private transportation can provide greater flexibility with timing, mobility equipment and assistance. Where appropriate, we'll arrange transfers that make moving between activities and locations as straightforward as possible.
A PACE THAT WORKS FOR YOU
Your trip doesn't need to follow the pace of a standard tour. We can allow additional time for transfers and activities, include rest periods and free afternoons, and design each day around what is comfortable and enjoyable for you.
HONEST, LOCAL ADVICE
Not every Galapagos experience will be suitable for every traveler — and we'll always be open about that. If we believe a particular activity or visitor site isn't appropriate for you, we'll explain why and look for an alternative that still gives you an incredible Galapagos experience.
