Quito Tours in March 2026

We had no idea what Ecuador had in store for us, it honestly wasn’t even at the top of our travel list but glad we booked it. From the moment we landed in Quito, we were hooked. The city is lively and colorful, and even though the altitude made us slow down a bit at first, the views from the top of El Panecillo made up for it. The Otavalo Market was pure chaos in the best way. I kept telling myself not to buy anything… ended up with a bag full of woven scarves. Zero regrets. Papallacta was a whole other vibe. The hot springs were exactly what we didn’t know we needed. If the trip had stopped there, I think we’d still be raving about it. Banos was this hidden gem with waterfalls and fresh air. The small group made everything more relaxed. No rushing, but no wasting time either. We felt like we got to really be in the places we visited. Everything was organized, we barely had to think. Just showed up, enjoyed, and soaked it all in. Would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

I absolutely loved my experience in Ecuador!! It was truly a holiday of a lifetime! This holiday gave me the chance to escape and detox from my usual life and free me from the clutches of the social media world we live in. No WIFI and data access gave me the chance to really experience Ecuador and learn the culture from its people. I reconnected with nature during my time in the rainforest and felt genuinely touched by its beauty and fascinated by natural remedies I learnt that it offers. This holiday released the inner adventurous girl in me, pushing myself into activities I never thought I could do. And again I have made some fantastic life long friends! I truly fell in love with Educator and didn't want to leave. I hope I get the opportunity to travel there again!

It was like a dream come true. I've learned a lot and got to experience life in a way many do not. The people were amazing, the activities were exciting, and I feel truly bonded to them after just a few short days. I wish the journey never ended.

The trip was so much more than I expected. Everything ran so smoothly and the company was great despite us being older than the rest by about 30 years! Lovely to share the experience with such a great group.

This was a good sampling of the GalA¡pagos - we were able to see wildlife and plants both on land and while snorkeling. The CEOs were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The crew on the Yolita was fantastic and worked hard to make our stay/experience great.

The local living tour gave an inspirational incite into living in the tropical rainforest with great activities to showcase this environment. Everybody we meet along the way that was involved in the tour was warm and welcoming especially our guide, Franklin and the host family.
