Ecuador Travel Guide
This Ecuador travel guide is written by the local team that plans and guides our trips from Quito, so every article comes from roads, trails and towns we visit each week. Start with Quito and the Andes volcanoes, continue to the Mindo cloud forest and the Amazon rainforest, and finish in the Galápagos Islands, Cuenca or the Pacific coast.
Use the filters to jump to a region, or read the planning articles first: safety, the best time to visit, money, altitude and how to connect the mainland with the islands. When you are ready, our team can turn what you read into a day-by-day itinerary for your dates.
