The new provisions to enter the Galapagos Islands will come into effect from this August 31, 2021. This was announced by the president of the National COE, Juan Zapata, on the night of this Tuesday, August 24 at 11:59 p.m.

The requirements for the entry of tourists are the following:

People between two and sixteen years old must present a negative PCR test carried out up to 72 hours before shipment
