Stunning Hacienda Piman is a historic retreat located in Ecuador's northern Andes. A former colonial and Republic country manor, Hacienda Piman has recently been restored to its original beauty by the Zaldumbide family. The Zaldumbide family has owned the hotel since its creation in the 17th century. The hotel's green valley location makes it an oasis of Ecuadorian history nestled among the mountains.
The style of Hacienda Piman is reminiscent of the country manor houses of southern Colombia or Venezuela and features an external patio which runs around the outside walls. 17 guest rooms marry old and new Ecuador and are the perfect blend of traditional and modern. Rooms feature stone walls, exposed brick, antique decorations and colorful paintings.
Hacienda Piman serves a vast array of home-style dishes, using Ecuador's variety of ingredients to create traditional cuisine of the Ecuadorian Andes. The hotel is also willing to share its recipes, enabling guests to return home with the ability to make their favorite meals.

Beyond expectations! Then again we weren't sure what to expect. Lovely stay at the lodge, met other like-minded travelers (many had their trips planned by Adventure Life) and the owner was a gracious hostess. It felt like you were one happy family, visiting with a favorite aunt.

Kelly and Rhenee were excellent to work with on planning our trip. The logistics all worked smoothly and everyone was friendly and on time. Our accommodations were very good, particularly the incredible Patagonia Camp in Torres del Paine! Our guides on every excursion were outstanding and made the hikes memorable! Overall we had a wonderful trip with incredible memories!

Adventure Life is definitely a first-class safari tour company, and our representative was Franny Friesz. First of all, she responded immediately after we contacted Adventure Life. We told Franny that we had never been on a safari, and she was more than eager to offer a mountain of information about the trip. She informed us fully about all the ups, downs, and all arounds! She even prepared a number of packages for us to review -- even after we made changes to the areas we wanted to explore. Friendly, helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable -- these words describe Franny, and what a wonderful trip she prepared! We couldn't have asked for better service than Franny of Adventure Life. We HIGHLY recommend her and her outstanding company! Bon Voyage!

The staff at Adventure Life made planning my family's trip to the Galapagos Islands as easy as possible. They listened to what we were hoping to experience and made thoughtful suggestions about how to accomplish our vacation goals while meeting the needs of travelers ages 17-76! They patiently answered questions and follow up questions in the months leading up to the trip. They helped us trouble shoot and customize the trip in every way possible. The logistics involved in traveling from Boston to the Galapagos are innumerable. The Adventure Life staff helped us arrange every detail and the team they assembled in the Galapagos was tremendous. I have never done a trip this big before and after working with Adventure Life this time--would not hesitate one second in working with them again.
