Quito City Guides
The capital city of Ecuador is often overlooked by travellers, who only use it as a transit point on their way to the Galapagos Islands. However, Quito is definitely a city that’s worth stopping in. There are endless things to do, both in its well-preserved historic centre and around it.
Mindo Cloud Forest & Otavalo
A visit to Mindo cloud forest and Otavalo is a must when visiting Ecuador. This area of the country is known for its biological diversity, countless natural attractions and world famous indigenous markets. All of our guides include details on how to get to these places, how long you should stay for, where to eat and of course all the best things to do.
The Amazon Rainforest
A trip to the Amazon Rainforest is a must if you’re in one of the nine countries that the jungle stretches across in South America. Below you’ll find our dedicated blog posts that answer common questions you may have before visiting the Ecuadorian Amazon.
Baños de Agua Santa
Often referred to as the adventure capital of Ecuador, Baños de Agua Santa is a place where you definitely won’t run out of things to do. From powerful waterfalls to crazy viewpoints and scenic swings with volcanoes in the background, you’ll be able to find an activity for every level of adventure in Baños.
Cuenca
Cuenca is one of the most beautiful cities in Ecuador, so you shouldn’t skip a visit when planning your trip. You could easily spend a full day just visiting its Centro Historico, which is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. However, there are some fun day trips you can take as well, so definitely plan to spend at least three days in Cuenca.
