About the trip
This two-week holiday with G Adventures navigates Ecuador’s diverse landscapes, starting in Quito where you stand on the equator at the Intiñan Museum. Further south lies Cotopaxi National Park, where snow-capped peaks shadow the Limpiopungo Lagoon, providing a sharp contrast to the tropical warmth of Baños with its hot springs and views of the restless Tungurahua volcano.
The journey continues to the Amazon jungle near Shandia, reached by bike and on foot, offering a quieter side of Ecuador’s wild heart. Then it’s a short flight to the Galápagos Islands. Here, encounters with native marine life include snorkelling beside Whitetip reef sharks in clear waters at Las Tintoreras and delighting in a farm-to-table meal on Floreana Island. The itinerary balances group dinners and community visits with free days to explore at leisure on islands like Santa Cruz and Isabela.
The tour comes with a Chief Experience Officer and local guides in the Galápagos, combining organised activities with opportunities for independent discovery. Practical notes include awareness of the altitude in the highlands and the occasional need for staircase lifts in smaller lodgings.
