The Ecuadorians are strange and unique beings: they sleep calmly amidst roaring volcanoes, they live poor in the midst of immeasurable riches and they find happiness in sad music.
Alexander von Humboldt
Ecuador is a land of incredible beauty and diversity. Take a journey from the breathtaking heights of the Andes to the sweltering lowlands of the coast, through old Spanish colonial cities and remote indigenous communities. Hike around active volcanoes and venture out to the Galápagos Islands, 600 miles west of the South American mainland in the Pacific Ocean.
