Good morning

ive not travelled with you since Covid, and I have a few questions about my trip as there's no details as yet on my booking or received through post.

are cards widely accepted these days in South America or is cash better for the meals etc that we will need to buy ? 

I've looked at the Sherpa travel page as told to do so when I booked, but it's not very clear if I need to do any online forms before arriving at the Galapagos ? It talks of transit cards required? To travel through Bogotá it just said there are some transit restrictions but nothing else. I'm feeling a little nervous as the holiday is less than a month away and not really any details supplied other than booking, hotels and itinerary. I also believe there's a need for a smaller hold-all and certain restrictions for items you can take onto the Galápagos Islands itself ?

lastly what happens re snorkelling gear - is this supplied when we do this or something we need to bring?

thanks for your time - just trying to get organised and avoid last minute panics ! 

thanks

Thanks for the reply 

I did call, but forgot some of the questions which were more generic - are credit cards widely used these days abroad - as this is always seems the preferred method here now post Covid ?

and where is the tour manager meeting us please ? 

please could you answer to save me phoning again and clogging up the phone line  !

thanks
