Vaccinations: All guests must ensure they are medically fit for travel. As such, we remind you to check with your physician at least 4 to 6 weeks before sailing to make sure you are up to date with any required immunizations or vaccines you may need to ensure you will be permitted to visit each of the exciting destinations and tours on your itinerary. Currently, no inoculations are required for US, Canadian, and UK citizens. For further information, you may contact the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention’s Traveler’s Health website at www.cdc.gov/travel/ or toll-free at 800-232-4636.
Insurance: Travel protection with medical and evacuation coverage is required for this tour. Your travel advisor can discuss options with you, including medical expense coverage, pre-existing medical condition exclusion waivers, trip cancellation, trip delay, lost, delayed, or damaged baggage and more. To cover pre-existing conditions, most policies must be purchased within 14 days of making your initial deposit. Travel protection insurance prices are based on your age and the trip cost. Insurance must cover the following:
- Trip cancellation
- Medical treatment for illness or injury
- Medical evacuation and repatriation while overseas
Activity Level 3 – Active
Ideal for curious, on-the-go travelers who want to experience as much as possible. Days may be full with early starts, longer walking tours, and extended periods of standing—up to three hours at a time. Expect to cover up to four miles a day on varied terrain such as hills, cobblestones, and uneven streets, and be prepared to climb at least three to five flights of stairs, sometimes without handrails. Travelers should be comfortable boarding different modes of transportation.
Mobility Guidance: Travelers with mobility assistance needs may participate, but accommodations are very limited at this level. Even with advance notice, guests must be able to walk longer distances and join sightseeing activities without mobility aids at times.
Physical Limitations: Please note the ability to accommodate guests with special needs aboard the vessels in the Galapagos Islands is limited. Also, there is very little wheelchair accessibility on the Galapagos Islands. During a Galapagos journey, guests will need to ascend or descend steps into a motor coach, use stairs, walk and/or climb over uneven ground for extended distances and get on and off panga boats. Guests requiring assistance should consider their specific needs when making a Galapagos vacation decision.
Luggage: The air carriers flying between Quito and Baltra typically limit the amount of luggage per guest to one checked piece (not to exceed 50 lbs.) and a small carry-on bag (not to exceed 17 lbs.). Guests may bring a reasonable amount of clothing and personal effects on board the vessels. However, for guests’ comfort and convenience, it is recommended that they limit the number of items they take.
