Galápagos small-ship concept

Check your sailing. Cruise schedules are fixed by the operator. Confirm your sailing’s ports, local times, tender or shuttle arrangements, and all-aboard deadlines. Adjust this sample plan to the itinerary you can actually book, and keep a buffer for getting back to the ship.
