ECUADOR
Ecuador Holidays
Being only half the size of France, Ecuador is squeezed in between the giants of Columbia and Peru, but in many ways represents the whole of South America. Boasting an exotic Pacific coastline, majestic Andean highlands and snow capped volcanoes, the mysterious Amazon jungle and of course, the enchanted Galapagos Islands, the breadth and diversity of habitat throws up an equally eclectic mix of wildlife. Howler monkeys, the rare puma and elusive spectacled bear, the awesome condor, toucans and hummingbirds, the dazzling blue morpho butterfly, not to mention endemic species of the Galapagos Islands make Ecuador a rich and exotic destination.
Added to this is the fact that each geographic region also nurtures its own culture, people and climate, but is solidly held together by a common 5,000 year old cultural heritage, ensures that Ecuador remains one of our favourite destinations and a stunning introduction to South America.
