  • Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness
  • IMPORTANT TRAVEL TIPS
  • Ecuador is a wonderful, colorful and friendly country to visit. It is, however, a very different culture. So to ensure that you are fully prepared for the trip and enjoy your stay here we provide the following travel tips:
  • GENERAL (TRAVEL IN A DEVELOPING COUNTRY)
  • Ecuador is a developing country and many regions still live in poverty. Although the tourism infrastructure is reasonably good and improving each year it can still be difficult at times to travel.
  • You will often be needing a little patience as things tend to run on “latino time” – buses often depart late, people often arrive late to meetings, and things generally happen more slowly and with less urgency than in other countries.
  • The best way to deal with these differences is to look on the bright side and take each challenge as part of your travel experience. Relax and enjoy these sides to Latin culture.
  • ETIQUETTE & BEHAVIOR
  • Ecuador is one of South America´s most hospitable nations. Even in the overburdened metropolis of Quito, people are happy to give directions, chat, and ask a question. You´ll often hear “De donde vienes?” (“Where are you from?”). Ecuadorians are extremely knowledgeable and proud of the history of their country.
  • In the cities women who know each other often greet each other with a single kiss on the cheek, while men shake hands.
  • SHOPPING & BARGAINING
  • Ecuador has many colorful markets – both for handicrafts and local products. Before buying you should always bargain in price as this is the custom and the locals often try to charge extra to the tourists. There is no general guideline as to how much you should pay for any individual item – you should decide how much you are willing to pay, start your offers lower than that amount and compromise little by little trying to get the seller’s price down to your ideal price. Bargaining is fun, and a great chance to improve your Spanish while interacting with the locals!
  • When in regular shops/malls you should pay the quoted price as it is considered rude to bargain.
  • CAMERAS & PHOTOGRAPHY
  • Ecuador, with its majestic landscapes and varied cityscapes, is the dream of every photographer. However, you should respect the locals and follow these simple rules when photographing them:
  • Always ask permission before taking someone´s picture. People in remote villages often don’t like being photographed.
  • TIPPING
  • It is recommended to Tip our Drivers and Guides as this is not included in the price of the trip, for drivers we recommend $8 USD per person per day and for the guides $10 USD per person per day.
  • Tipping is also standard practice in most cafes and restaurants – 10% is normal.
  • ALTITUDE SICKNESS
  • Soroche (altitude sickness) affects some visitors in the Ecuadorian Andes. Headache, dizziness, and shortness of breath are common.
  • To avoid such effects it is recommended to take it easy on your first day, drink plenty of water or coca tea, and eat chocolate. Always inform your guide or hotel staff if you feel any symptoms and they will help you out.
  • FOOD & DRINK
  • Another health risk in Ecuador is traveler´s diarrhea caused by eating contaminated food or drinking contaminated water. It is therefore very important to watch what you eat - do not eat anything from street vendors, avoid ice unless you are sure it is made from purified water, avoid uncooked or under-cooked food and unpasteurized milk, drink only bottled water, even when brushing your teeth. In the case of illness always inform your guide or hotel staff who will help you deal with it and ensure that you drink enough water to maintain hydration.
  • HYGIENE
  • Hygiene standards are generally lower than those you are used to in North America or Europe. One very important difference is that the sewage system cannot cope with toilet paper being flushed into the toilet. There is usually a basket next to the toilet which should be used to deposit used toilet paper, and although unhygienic this method is more pleasant than the toilet overflow that will occur if paper is flushed!
  • SAFETY AND SECURITY
  • Safety and security is an important issue as pick-pocketing and robbery of tourists can and does occur. It is important not to be paranoid when travelling as most Ecuadorians you meet will be very honest and friendly people, but there are some basic precautions that you should take: Unless necessary never carry anything valuable with you (i.e. expensive watches / jewelry) or large amounts of money.
  • It is our intention to adhere to the itinerary described; however, due to our travel style, on occasions it may be necessary or desirable to make small changes. Weather conditions and unpredictable local circumstances may lead us to make alterations to the route and/or travel times. Hotels and flight schedules might change according to availability. Any mention to specific wildlife in the itinerary or trip details is not a guarantee that it will be seen during the trip.

    This trip has been truly unbelievable, we've done tons of fun activities, we've visited lots of beautiful places and we've stayed in amazing hotels. Jorge was our guide and he's been probably the best guide I've ever had. He is incredibly fun to be with but also very knowledgeable about his country. He's answered all our questions and he's made sure that everything in our trip was running smoothly. Highlights of the trip for me were definitely our jungle experience, the waterfall climbing and the rafting. Also getting to know the local communities and knowing that with our trip we were helping them was an huge plus. If you love active holidays, nature and a deep dive into local culture this tour is definitely for you!

    This trip exceeded my expectations beyond words! Jorge was our guide for volcano hike, bike ride thru cloud forest, hiking waterfalls and rafting. He showed us the best restaurants to eat at in Banos (all which were amazing) and the best rooftop bar ever!! He was extremely knowledgeable and answered every question we had. He was professional and made our trip so much fun. My favorite was staying overnight in the jungle with Rolando as our host. Rolando was great on the waterfall hike and telling us about the leaves and plants along the way. I had the best tilapia for dinner that night I’ve ever had in my life. Armando is the best driver and always felt safe with him at the wheel. When we come back here we will request Jorge again.
