Baltra is an unpopulated island that only hosts the airport, there is really not much to see here. At least you get a stamp in your passport for your $100.įrom the airport a free shuttle bus brings you to the harbor, where a boat is waiting to bring you over to Santa Cruz. We mostly brought dry stuff (which wasn’t a problem at all) that costs between three to eight times more on the Galapagos than on the mainland:įirst thing after arriving in Baltra you will be asked to pay the entrance fee to the national park. You can hardly bring Fruits or Veggies, a couple of things however are possible to bring. Your check in luggage will be thoroughly checked. What the Transit Ticket payed for exactly we never understood, but well, we got our boarding pass. Arrival and departure date as well as the used airport are printed on the ticket.
It costs $20 and is only issued with your passport. At the Airportīefore checking in you need to buy a Transit Ticket. The tickets for the Avianca flight were in about three weeks, so somewhat spontaneous. One fine day tho we found flights for $195 return and booked them immediately. In generally flights from Guayaquil are cheaper then from Quito, mostly for about $350. Well, since we were in Ecuador already we checked the prices every once in a while over the stretch of about one month.
#Superduper deals how to
This is our collection on how to travel the Galapagos on the superdupercheapcheap. When we stumbled upon a unmatched price we gave in. After doing a lot of research I found a couple of Blogs that wrote about affordable accommodation and the possibility of Last Minute Cruises and eventually we searched for a flight. For a long time we questioned ourselves whether we really want to afford to go to a place that so openly is categorized as being highly expensive. A couple of days ago we returned from the Galapagos Islands, a place that, first of all, I never expected to actually exist and secondly, one (or more precise: me) could ever visit.
