The total tour price is $9,450 USD and the payment plan we offer is broken into three payments as follows:
Please read the following before paying your deposit:
Travel medical insurance is mandatory. Our minimum insurance policy coverage for medical emergency evacuation and repatriation is $200,000 USD.
We don’t accept Credit Card insurance as proof of travel insurance for our tours, therefore we recommend purchasing your travel insurance policy BEFORE making any payments.
Many of our guests opt for World Nomads Travel Insurance, however, we encourage you to shop around for a policy that is best suited for your needs. Other insurance providers include Allianz Travel Insurance, Nationwide Travel Insurance, John Hancock Travel, and many more.
Please note that all of our tour payments are non-refundable and travel insurance will only cover cancellations for covered reasons such as the unexpected illness of you or a family member, severe weather, or job loss.
If you would like to purchase “cancel for any reason” coverage, it is more expensive but will usually cover you for up to 50-75% of the total cost of the trip. Some policies that offer “cancel for any reason” include John Hancock “Gold” Travel Insurance and Nationwide “Prime” Travel Insurance. These policies also need to be purchased before a deadline—typically within 14 days of making a trip deposit.
NOTE: When selecting the dates of your travel insurance policy, please keep your travel dates in mind should you choose to fly in a day early or stay an additional night per our recommendation. For example, if you need to fly out on January 8th to arrive in time for a tour starting on January 10th, you will want to enter your insurance coverage start date as of January 8th.
If you have been looking to get a travel reward credit card, you can take advantage of earning a sign-up bonus by applying for one before a big trip or purchase (like your TBA Escapes Trip)! Most cards have a required minimum spend to earn the bonus miles offered (ex. spend $3,000 in 3 months to earn 50,000 bonus miles), so many of our previous guests opted to apply before making their payments for the tour.
If you’re interested, we’d suggest applying after you’ve paid your deposit. Once approved, you should receive your card within 1-2 weeks so you can use it to pay for your flight and tour payments. You can see some of our favorite cards here!
Some of the biggest benefits of a travel reward credit card are earning points to use for free flights and hotels. Plus, many cards offer additional points when making travel-related purchases. Some cards also offer additional travel protection when you pay for a trip with the card.
Right now, the Chase Sapphire Preferred has an incredible 80k bonus point offer! We’re more than happy to consult with you if you are unsure of the best card for you. Just let us know if you’d like some help!
After paying your deposit, you will be added to our tour Facebook group where you can connect with your fellow travelers!
If you are planning on traveling regionally before or after the tour, feel free to share your plans in the Facebook group. We’re also more than happy to help provide some suggestions. Just let us know what travel plans you have in mind.
“TBA Escapes took me on an incredible adventure to Ecuador and the Galápagos! This was my first experience with any sort of tour-based trip and it definitely set the bar pretty high! The communication leading up to and during the tour was exceptional. Every detail was thought out and even though we had a group of 18 girls, I felt like I had individual attention when it came to coordinating my flights and hotel arrangements, as I arrived and stayed longer in Ecuador. The group of women was inspiring and positive adventurous travel companions, who made the experience that much better! I will definitely be booking another trip with TBA Escapes in the future!”
“The TBA Escapes Tour to the Galápagos was an experience I will never forget. The Galápagos never really crossed my mind as a typical travel destination for me. The Blonde Abroad inspired me to visit this pristine location and I could not be more thankful that I was able to travel here with TBA Escapes. If I had not traveled to the Galápagos with TBA Escapes, I don’t think that I would have the same appreciation for my time there. Being with a group of women who also have the same appreciation for travel and new experiences made it that much more special. TBA Escapes’ attention to detail when planning and organizing this trip was much appreciated. I can honestly say that I will be telling all my female friends to take a trip with TBA Escapes if they ever get the opportunity to. I can’t wait to see what new destinations are added to TBA Escapes in the future and I am already itching to go on another adventure!”
The Galápagos Islands are a once-in-a-lifetime experience. This was a personal bucket list item I can cross. The TBA escapes tour was very well executed from start to finish. Our naturalist guides were highly trained and knowledgeable on all things Galápagos. Tba did an amazing job selecting the boat, guides, and accommodations for this trip. Having the opportunity to travel with a diverse group of women was empowering and enriching. The trip provided a safe haven to explore new ground and cultivate new memories. I’m looking forward to my future trips within TBA escapes.
