PROJECTS AT THE GALAPAGOS ISLANDS

A unique way to get to know the world famous Galapagos Islands is by doing a month of volunteer work at one of the inhabited islands. At these islands, where Charles Darwin got part of his inspiration for the evolution theory, live many animals without fear for human beings. Sea lions, iguanas, big tortoises…..big from all over the world travel especially to Ecuador to visit this unique place on earth. And in this scenery you can help out at one of the projects on the islands San Cristobal and Santa Cruz

With all projects on the Galapagos Islands there is a minimum stay of at least 4 weeks, and with some projects even two months. The projects you can choose from also depends on the season you want to come. All schools, for example, are closed for summer holidays in February and March.

The price you pay for volunteering at a project includes besides the inscription money for the project, a donation fee and your accommodation, also your volunteer visa for the Galapagos Islands and the national flight to and from the islands. With the volunteer visa please take into account that this is only valid for the island on which your project is based. If you wish to visit other islands during your stay, you are obliged to pay the $100.00 national parque entry fee. Also included is your accommodation at a host family or a hostal for the duration of your project. Please take into account that both options are excluding meals.
