Nature Off the Screen
If your travel goal is to show your family the natural world, then this is the vacation you need. You’ll get outside, explore amazing destinations, and see animals in their natural habitat.
Our advice to visitors of Ecuador is…
We designed this Signature Trip to keep your family in the fresh Andean air. Listen to water lapping, birds singing and leaves rustling in the forest. Smell the fresh, sweet scent of the Earth. Adventure and excitement are all around you, when you put down your devices and really *see* the world.
What will make your friends jealous…
*Your* friends won’t believe that you island-hopped around a bucket list destination –– explore San Cristobal, Bartolome, South Plaza, and Wolves. The *children’s friends* will envy that they saw animals found nowhere else on Earth, passed volcanoes, sailed across the ocean, and walked through clouds.
Why you’ll want to return…
You could spend the next 10 years exploring the Galapagos Archipelago and see something new each time. Then, there’s the Ecuadorian Amazon… No doubt, you’ll want to enjoy colorful festivals and dance in the street to live music. Maybe hit the beach for a family surf lesson? Next time; see you soon!
Places you'll stay
Quito
Set an elevation of 9,350 ft (2,850 m), Quito is the highest capital city in the world. The population of this bustling city is a contrasting mix of Ecuadorians sporting sleek business suits and colorful indigenous clothing. These contrasts exemplify the mix of politics, history and culture that define Quito. Founded in the 16th century atop the ruins of an Inca city, Quito is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a premier destination for those visiting Ecuador.
Mindo
With more birds than residents, the sleepy town of Mindo beckons travelers to come enjoy its picturesque cloud forest. Zip-lines and gondolas float through quiet, misty canopies, while a network of hiking trails on the ground lead visitors to roaring waterfalls.
Baltra Island
For most visitors, Baltra Island’s scrubby, arid landscape is their first look at the Galápagos. This island has the main airport in the Galápagos, and serves as the departure point for cruise ships.
