Ecuador Tickets to Galapagos

The ticket to a good Galapagos Ecuador tour is to select a premium boat for the cruise.

The ticket to a good Galapagos cruise in Galapagos Ecuador is a first class yacht like the Galapagos Yacht Galaxy above.

Dining on the Galapagos Galaxy.

Galapagos Galaxy Accommodations.

See the special Ecuador tickets to the Galapagos that save up to $658 here.

I have heard amazing stories from readers about Galapagos tours… good and bad.

Most stories are really positive… but one point is clear. There are some bad boats that cruise the Galapagos. Tickets on these cheaper Galapagos boats are not bargains at all!

You can look for good deals on Galapagos tickets… but look for them on first class yachts… not second or lower tier cruises.

This is why I always send readers to Haugan Cruises, a company run by our friend, Kjetil Haugan.

The ticket to finding a low cost Galapagos cruise, if your schedule is not rigid, is to look for cruises that are not fully booked. If you can book your ticket on short notice, you can sometimes save thousands.

For example, Fernanda Borja the head of Haugan Cruises Galapagos ticket desk just sent me this note.

Air tickets, hotel rooms and cruises all have one factor in common. If not sold they are worthless the moment the flight, night or cruise begins. As the event nears… the price of the ticket falls if the room, cruise or flight is not filled.

Here are special deals that Haugan Cruises has for all clients who want a Galapagos cruise at more normal fares.
