From high-altitude cities to colonial towns nestled in lush valleys, and natural sights galore – what this South American country lacks in size, it certainly makes up for in diversity. Ecuador is geographically blessed with three distinct regions: El Oriente, La Costa and La Sierra. Head east to explore its slice of the Amazon rainforest, marvel at the rugged Andean region in central Quito, get your adrenaline racing in the adventure capital of Baños, or relax along the thousands of kilometres of pristine coastline that flank the west coast.
The jewel in Ecuador’s crown is of course, the Galápagos Islands. This volcanic archipelago is home to an astounding array of native wildlife and functions as one of the world’s most fragile ecosystems. No matter where your visit takes you, Ecuador is sure to delight.
The Galápagos Islands offer one of the most spectacular and immersive wildlife experiences on the planet. Whether you’re snorkelling with sea lions, birdwatching for blue-footed boobies, or trekking volcanic terrain, unparalleled opportunities for wildlife enthusiasts to connect with nature—on land and sea—can be found...
