Ecuador.
Activity Level: 2

These are particularly busy tours that feature a lot of moving around, sometimes by train and short journeys on local transport. Walking tours of towns and cities are leisurely but you should be prepared to be on your feet for several hours. Some of our cultural trips that occur at high altitude and/or require greater independence with baggage handling (at hotels, airports, train stations) also fall into this category.
Tour Style: Cultural

These three- and four-star hotel-based, "soft adventure" trips concentrate on the culture, history, and natural attributes of our destination. Though there are no strenuous activities built into these tours, you need to be prepared for some full days with some early starts, plenty of walking on uneven surfaces through villages, cities and archaeological sites, and not a lot of "down time." Independence, reasonable fitness, and an ability to be steady on one's feet are critical in order for you to get the most out of these programs.

On our small group Ecuador tours, you’ll encounter the country’s mesmerising wildlife and historic treasures in style. With a maximum of 18 participants in each group, you’ll enjoy a more relaxed travel experience. Some of our tour leaders who have led these tours.
Diego Vidal I came from a traditional Ecuadorian family, so part of my life was spent on my grandparents’ farms. I grew up with a special respect for nature and a solid connection with the local indigenous people. This background led me into tourism as a naturalist guide and little by little I became more involved in traveling and discovering new destinations. With years of experience in different tours, I had the chance to start as a tour leader back in 2006 - exploring the wonders of South America. Whether trekking to the ancient ruins of Machu Picchu, traversing the otherworldly landscapes of the Atacama Desert, or delving into the vibrant cultures of the Amazon Rainforest, I am committed to providing immersive and responsible travel experiences.

LANGUAGE:
Spanish, English and French.
TOURS LED:

FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
So hard to choose as wherever I go I always find something exciting to see and do. I grew up in the middle of the Andes so the mountains and nature are always favorites. I enjoy swimming with sharks and sea lions in the Galapagos islands, exploring Inca ruins in little villages of Peru, taking a leisurely walk in the colonial cities of Uruguay or enjoying a delicious mate. It is not the destination as much as it is the company that makes the experience.

Jonathan Hodgson Jonathan has lived much of his life dedicated to the idea that he would rather have a wealth of experiences than a wealth of riches. Having taken up a nomadic lifestyle shortly after finishing his undergraduate degree, he has been on the move on and off over the last 25+ years. The wanderlust has taken him to basing himself in places such as Scotland, Australia and Uzbekistan, and to visiting many more locations around our planet. Now (sort of) settled in Vancouver with his wonderful (and patient) family, he still loves the idea of having the world as his office and always enjoys trying to capture the essence of the locations he travels and tours in with his photography.

martin charlton
EDUCATION:
Bachelor's Degree in Geography; further studies in Archaeology & Anthropology. Life's real education happens outside the classroom.
LANGUAGE:
English and some French & Spanish.
TOURS LED:
Having designed and led tours for Adventures Abroad for almost 30 years, there are few corners of the globe where Martin’s left a stone unturned: everywhere from North Korea to Nauru, Saudi Arabia to Sudan, Guinea-Bissau to French Guiana. With over 200 tours through over 125 countries under his belt, it might be faster to list the regions where he hasn’t led a tour.
FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
"My love of travel and infectious enthusiasm for different cultures has taken me to over 150 countries. The further off the beaten path, the better. For a favourite place: perhaps South Georgia Island, the Canadian Arctic, Tasmania or Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic. World's best city = Istanbul!"

Victor Romagnoli I love the excitement of getting up each morning on a tour and not knowing exactly how a day will unfold. It keeps me on my toes so to speak, and adds a breath of excitement to each day on tour. With almost 30 years of tour leading under my belt, I thank all of you for being a part of this exciting journey. Read More

victor romagnoli
EDUCATION:
HBA English BA History
LANGUAGE:
Being able to speak several languages has made travelling an enriching experience; the conversations one can so easily slip into with locals - who come from all walks of life - adds greatly to my feel for a place.
TOURS LED:
Over a span of almost 30 years, I have lead tours virtually all over the globe.
FAVOURITE DESTINATION:
Some of my favourite tours just come into being suddenly as a result of a request; someone will ask me to put together an itinerary that will include the highlights of several countries and the next thing you know we have, for example, a tour to Uruguay, Paraguay & Bolivia, or Lesotho, Namibia & Botswana. Sometimes I will be asked to arrange a detailed itinerary to just one region within a country - like a close up look at Sicily or Crete or the Basque Country or Newfoundland. Without the keen curiosity that so many of you travellers have, none of these "spontaneous" tours would come into being. But they do.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
ASK A QUESTION
01. Do you need a visa to travel to Ecuador?
The majority of citizens, including those of the US, Canada, EU, the UK and Ireland, Australia and New Zealand do not need a visa to enter Ecuador as tourists for stays of up to 90 days.
02. Is Ecuador safe?
Ecuador is considered one of the safer South American countries, although there have been rising crime levels in recent years. Tourists are advised to be wary of pickpockets and thieves, especially in crowded places and on public transport. When travelling at night, it’s also recommended to grab a taxi rather than wandering the streets. Unfortunately, kidnappings in taxis do happen so to mitigate the risk, make sure you call a registered taxi through your hotel rather than hailing one in the street.
03. When is the best time to visit Ecuador?
The weather in Ecuador varies between regions, so the best time to visit depends on where you’re travelling. On the mainland, the warmest and driest months are from June to September, while the coolest and wettest months are between January and May. Wildlife-watching and trekking can be enjoyed throughout the year, and the Galapagos archipelago is also considered a year-round destination.
