​How Do I Get to the Galapagos for the Retreat?

To join the retreat in the Galápagos, you will first need to arrive in Quito, Ecuador, at least one day before the trip begins. All flights to the Galápagos depart in the mornings only. Please note that the Galápagos has two main airports: Baltra (on Santa Cruz Island) and San Cristóbal. Our itinerary begins with a flight from Quito to Baltra and ends with the return flight from Baltra to Quito.

Are Flights to the Galapagos Included in the Retreat Price?

No, flights between Quito and the Galapagos are not included in the retreat package. Participants are responsible for purchasing their own tickets. We are happy to advise you and guide you to make sure you book the correct flights according to the retreat itinerary.

In addition to flights, all travelers must pay two mandatory fees upon entering the Galapagos Islands:

• Transit Control Card (INGALA): USD 20 – paid at the airport in Quito before boarding your flight.

• Galapagos National Park Entrance Fee: USD 200 – paid upon arrival in the Galapagos (cash only).

These costs are not included in the retreat package and must be covered individually.

What Additional Costs Should I Plan For During the Retreat?

Once you arrive in the Galápagos, all accommodations, meals, guided activities, and transfers are included in the retreat package. Please note that only two dinners are included: the welcome dinner and the farewell dinner. We do this because, based on our experience, the variety of food in the Galápagos is extensive, and travelers usually prefer to explore and try the islands’ flavors on their own.

Are transfers included?

Yes, transfers are included on the day the tour begins, the day before it starts, and on the day it ends.
