-Galapagos Islands to double tourist entry fees amid concerns over rising visitor numbers [[https://omg-omg-shop.com/|омг зеркало]]
-Tourists to the Galapagos Islands will be asked to pay twice as much in entry fees from this year amid concerns that a rise in visitor numbers is putting pressure on the ecologically sensitive destination.
-Ecuador’s Ministry of Tourism has announced the new fees, which will take effect on August 1, 2024.
-The entry fee will go from $100 to $200 for nationals of almost all countries, except for other members of the South American trade bloc Mercosur, which includes Argentina, Brazil, and Peru.
-Mercosur members will now have to pay $100 per person, up from $50. Children under age two can visit for free, regardless of nationality.
-This is the first increase in Galapagos entry fees since 1998.
-“The Galapagos Islands are not only a national treasure but a global one. It is our collective responsibility to protect and preserve this unparalleled ecosystem for future generations,” Niels Olsen, Ecuador’s tourism minister, said in a statement shared with the Galapagos Conservation Trust.
-Olsen added that the additional money will go toward conservation efforts for the islands, which are 1,000 kilometers (621 miles) off the coast of mainland Ecuador.
