Ecuador
Pleasantly situated on South America’s most western point, this is one of the continent’s smallest, yet most diverse natural treasures. Tiny by South American standards, dwarfed by its neighbors Colombia and Peru, Ecuador’s compact size is exactly what makes it so alluring. Here, you can watch the sun rise over a horizon of lush jungle canopy, lunch high in the Andean Mountains, then revel in the vibrant orange, indigo and red of the setting Ecuadorian sun as it dips below the Pacific…all in the same day.
Boasting a rich array of landscapes, cultures and wildlife, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands prove one of the most enlightening and inspiring destinations on the planet. From the snow covered peaks of the Andes, to the wealth of botanically and animal wonders native to the Amazon Basin; from the cultural centers of Quito and Cuenca, to the evolutionary phenomena of the Galapagos, Ecuador offers a wealth of riches to stimulate the soul.
