Quito Tours in February 2027

Don't skip Ecuador! This trip was a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation in one of the most beautiful and biodiverse countries I have ever seen. The guide, group, and local people were all wonderful. I can't wait to go back, see more, and drink as many batidas de papaya as I can! If you have time, a trip to Mindo for the hummingbirds is magical

If you are reading this you have already seen the brochure description and want to know if it is all true. The trip does cover a huge variety of ground both in miles, climate and altitude so yes you really do need everything from hat and gloves to sun block! I think packing for this trip was possibly the most challenging. Most of the walking wasn't challenging but on a couple of longer ones there are options to opt out or cut short so no pressure there. Not much relaxation but some free time to shop and have the occasional cocktail, lots of travel. You will see spectacular scenery, meet interesting and knowledgeable people, seal lions having a nap in the street, iguanas a plenty. If you have a special bird interest check the nesting season to give you the best chance. We saw Frigate birds displaying to females but not the season for blue foots. The sea was warm enough but keep moving. The estimated cost of food was fairly accurate but food and drink can vary a lot. There are posh eateries with expensive cocktails, but also well priced, no frills food with a bottle of beer. ATMs relatively easy to find in a number of locations. Wifi connection was good. Hope this helps, go ahead and book!

The G Adventures Galapagos Island Hopping tour was truly outstanding. The wildlife surpassed all expectations! I found Floreana particularly enchanting, with its serene atmosphere and captivating wildlife. Isabela Island stole my heart with its abundance of penguins and diverse wildlife. Every moment was filled with wonder and awe. The tunnels snorkeling experience was nothing short of exhilarating. This trip was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will remain etched in my memory forever.

The tour to the Galapagos was phenomenal. I feel like I was able to see so much more than I ever would if I were to travel there alone. The guide was extremely knowledgable, able to answer every question we had, and her love of the islands was very apparent. Prior to the trip, gadventures shared all the documentation I needed for a fun, succesful trip and customer service was able to answer all of my questions in a timely manner. I will definitely sign up for another tour one day.

A highly recommended company to travel with. It takes all of the guess work out of figuring out where to go, how to get here, where to eat and sleep. Pay your fee and show up!

I would like to see the detail itineraries updates from 2008 to current and the subject to change can always be added. I also think when a trip,is booked it very clear that a 7 day excursion is broken down by days on the boat and days on the land.
