Experience Ecuador

Ecuador experience gastronomy
GASTRONOMY

Ecuador offers foodies a chance to each their way through history, with recipes that pre-date modern western culture. Ingredients like quinoa, plantains, and hominy have been enjoyed by civilizations for centuries, and modern gastronomy is finding ways to honor indigenous recipes as well as create new, contemporary masterpieces with the local produce! For a vacation full of food that embraces tradition and celebrates history while delivering unforgettable flavors, Ecuador is the perfect destination.

CULTURE

Among the most popular internationally is the Carnival Festival, which is the equivalent to Ecuador’s Mardi Gras. Every single February (or March, depending on the year), the locals gather for a celebration of extravagance and indulgence before the forty day fasting period that follows. This festival also celebrates the Kichwa holiday of Paucar Huatay, marking the end of the solar year, a distinctly Ecuadorian experience that makes this Carnival unlike any other in Latin America.

Ecuador experience adventure
ADVENTURE

If you’re looking for thrill-seeking ways to get your heart racing as you travel across Ecuador, take flight on the mountain swings in Baños, a small city with plenty of adventures. Zip lining, white water rafting, canyoning, trekking, and the mountain swings are all offered in Baños! Varying fear-factor ratings are given to each swing, so if you’re ready to take a leap of faith as you soar out amongst the Andes, look for El Vuelo del Cóndor which takes you right over the mountain edge on an impressive, sweeping swing ride.

Ecuador experience nature
NATURE

A trip to the Galapagos Islands will bring guests an enriching education on biology and evolution in the most exciting way. Home to one of Earth’s richest marine ecosystems, the Galapagos are known for many uncommon species such as flightless cormorants, giant tortoises, giant cacti, and marine iguanas. Ongoing seismic and volcanic activity combined with the cross section of three ocean currents makes these islands a breeding ground for mutations amongst plants and animals, creating a natural laboratory for nature lovers and scientists alike.

Ecuador experience wellness
WELLNESS

In a country decorated with volcanoes, there are bound to be a few hot springs to steam in after a long day of adventuring. Step out from Quito into the small town of Papallacta, and you will not only be served some of the finest Ecuadorian cuisine, but hiking trails and luxurious hot springs in the mountains. Pools warmed by geothermal energy neighbor frigid waters that will envelope the brave-hearted who wish to take an icy plunge in between their spa sessions.
