Ecuador
Trip Planning & Itineraries
Ecuador is the most diminutive of the Andean countries, yet it offers more physical and cultural diversity than almost any country on the planet.
Ecuador has an array of vibrant indigenous cultures, well-preserved colonial architecture, otherworldly volcanic landscapes and dense rainforest. And all that in a nation no bigger than the US state of Nevada.
Add to that an extensive user-friendly bus system and you end up with a country that is both exciting and easy to travel in.Spotlight on Quito
Quito is full of sights and attractions, by day and night. On this evening tour you take in the Guapulo Mirador, with spectacular views over the valley of Cumbaya. Then continue through the colonial part of the city, with its illuminated colonial churches. If all this makes you hungry, you're in luck. A traditional Highlands meal is included.
Suggested Itineraries in Ecuador
Any journey in the highlands is dominated by magnificent glacier-clad volcanoes, including Cotopaxi, which at 5897m is one of the highest active volcanoes in the world. Climbers from all over the world get all worked up at the opportunity to set personal altitude records on this and many other peaks.
Further south, hiking around the country's highest peak, Chimborazo (6310m), gives you the chance to chat with the incredibly tough children who spend their days herding a handful of sheep in the páramo (Andean grasslands).
