Ecuador

If local markets, snow-capped Andean peaks and crater lakes aren´t reason enough to visit, Ecuador also offers a wonderful variety of beautifully preserved colonial cities and luxurious country houses that will make your journey through the majestic highlands comfortable and authentic. Museum hopping, gourmet dining, trekking, horseback riding and bird watching are just part of a normal day in Ecuador.

The “Avenue of the Volcanoes” links Quito to the colonial cities in the South, such as the beautiful city of Cuenca. As you travel throughout this region, the dramatic mountain scenery and indigenous villages seem untouched by contemporary life, making your journey all the more special.

You might think you´re in another country as you leave the highlands behind and enter the Amazon jungle. More accessible than in any other South American country, Ecuador´s rainforest is a scientist´s dream. There´s more flora and fauna here than you can imagine – and more than enough excellent lodges and accommodations to make your stay comfortable.

And then there are the Galápagos Islands. No journey to Ecuador would be complete without a visit to this other-worldly, magical place. As the cradle of Darwin´s theories, the islands are a living record of evolution and a life-changing experience for all who visit.
