Visit colonial cities, indigenous villages with busling local markets, dense jungle in the Amazon rainforest and the breathtaking mountain peaks of the Avenue of Volcanoes. The ecological marvel of the Galapagos Islands is truly Ecuador's greatest treasure, with a huge diversity of unique wildlife that remains friendly to humans. In addition, explore colonial history, traditional communities and the vibrant local culture.

The soundtrack to Ecuador is a collection of great hits: the crunch of leaves under foot as an exotic animal wakes from its afternoon slumber, the piercing cries of colourful birds in the misty Amazon, the bellows of far-off smoldering volcanoes and the rhythmic clatter of sluggish trains rumbling along rickety mountain-side tracks.

There's the gentle ripple of Pacific coast waves lapping a tranquil golden beach, the flutter of pigeon wings in a leafy colonial era square, the hauntingly beautiful harmonies of traditional Andean music and the hustle and bustle of markets in sleepy hillside villages. Ecuador is a mosaic decorated with colonial gems and packed with miles upon miles of verdant rainforest. Best of all, are the magnificent Galápagos Islands waiting to be discovered on an expedition yacht that will take you close to nature and friendly wildlife.
