Ecuador & the Galapagos Islands Holidays


Many worlds in one easy-to-visit country


Introduction to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands

The phrase 'small is beautiful' could have been coined specifically with Ecuador in mind. By South American standards, it is tiny (only half the size of France) and dwarfed by its neighbours Colombia and Peru. It is this relative compactness, which is one of its main attractions. Its territory stretches over Amazonian rainforests, Andean glaciers, coastal lowlands plus the world-acclaimed Galapagos Islands - making its topography a vertical compendium of the world's latitudes. 'Migrating South for the winter', is just 'around the corner' in Ecuador. Situated on the Equator, no major climatic variations are present to keep you from visiting Ecuador anytime of the year. In this 'land of eternal spring', all fruits and vegetables are always in season and flowers bloom all year round. Birdwatching, trekking, white-water rafting, whale watching, mountain biking, shamanism and healing, Eco-fishing, even Spanish lessons with home stays. Yes, Ecuador has it all!
