Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to buy travel insurance before traveling to Ecuador?
Eco Galaxy strongly recommends that customers buy travel insurance with full coverage, including medical, cancellation, delays, material losses, and life coverage. Eco Galaxy does not provide any kind of trip insurance and we do not accept liability for accidents or events beyond our control.
What happens if I cancel a confirmed tour?
Cancellations are taken on a case-by-case basis and depend on the services you have booked, the travel dates, and the property booked. As a rule, Eco Galaxy does not charge a cancellation fee if you decide not travel, we pass on the costs of cancellation from supplier yachts, ships, hotels and other service providers.
