Cultural Adventures has the right to revise any itinerary, arrangements, prices or dates, if it becomes necessary or advisable, and to cancel any trip due to inadequate sign-up which makes the trip economically unfeasible to operate.

Reservations for this trip will not exceed 14 persons. Therefore plan now to be one of them. A $500 deposit will hold your place.

Additional Planning Information:

1 Travel Insurance is highly recommended since no refunds will be made after the final balance due date.

2 A valid passport is required to enter and depart Ecuador. Visas are not required if you're a citizen of the United States or Canada.

3 You can scuba dive during our stay in San Cistobal or Santa Cruz Island visit. An extra fee of $150 per day will entitle you to two immersions for the day.

4 In 2000, the US dollar became the currency of Ecuador so you won’t have to deal with exchange rates or changing money.
