Ecuador – Quito, Otavalo, Amazon, Banos & Cuenca

27 September, 201913 August, 2023 BeckySouth America

Ecuador is the smallest country in South America but it really packs a punch. Our 31 week South America overland tour starts and ends in Quito, which was convenient as we found super cheap flights from Boston to Quito ($220 one way on Copa Air, including 2 checked bags each). With one free day before…Continue reading Ecuador – Quito, Otavalo, Amazon, Banos & Cuenca

We are so glad that…Continue reading Ecuador – Galapagos

It straddles the equator (hence the name “Ecuador”) and currently has a total of four UNESCO world heritage sites: Quito, Cuenca, the Galapagos Islands, and Sangay National Park. We focused our energies during our…Continue reading Ecuador – Cuenca
