OVERVIEW

Ecuador may be small but it is mighty. Experience the wonders of this incredible country with a visit to the Andes Mountains to witness a beguiling array of wildlife; just a short hike through Mindo cloud forest will introduce you to hundreds of species. Uncover Ecuador’s cultural and historical diversity in its charming towns and cities. Fall in love with Quito’s picturesque plazas and be charmed by Otavalo’s traditional way of life. Take the short journey to the Galapagos Islands to discover creatures that are found nowhere else in the world. To walk among them is a once in a lifetime experience that will never be forgotten.


Itinerary

For dramatic landscapes and unique wildlife encounters, look no further than our Darwin’s Galapagos tour. Your journey starts in Quito, Ecuador’s capital city, rich in culture and historical splendour. You will then fly to the Galapagos Islands, search for giant tortoises, and marvel at pint-sized penguins as you hop across the Galapagos archipelago. The pricing is based on a small group tour (max 15) but you have the option to upgrade to a semi-private or private journey at an additional cost.
