Otavalo is a beautiful Andean town populated mostly by the native indigenous peoples of the area. It is surrounded by the volcanoes: Cotacachi, Imbabura, and Mojanda. It also has a nearby lake called Lago San Pablo that offers a handful of water sports & recreational activities. Because the water is pretty cold year round, wearing a wetsuit is recommended. Otavalo is most well known for the Indigenous market in the central Plaza de Ponchos, where they sell colorful textiles, handcrafts, jewelry, Indigenous art, and much more. Near the market there is an Obraje Museum that includes textile exhibits and other ancient Indigenous made artifacts like wicker baskets and pots. Or, you could take an extended trip with Adventure Life and visit Otavalo along with the Amazon and Galapagos Islands. Contact our travel experts to plan your ideal trip to Ecuador today!
COSTA RICA a trip of a life time travelling round this beautiful country. All went like clockwork even when the weather was against us and all transfers seemed to be part of the holiday not a chore. Would definitely use Adventure Life again having previously used them 20 years ago!!

The travel specialists we've worked with for 2 vacations have made the trip planning process easy! They ask good questions to ensure they understand our goals and likes and have done an excellent job matching adventures with our preferences - even suggesting things we would not have thought about on our own!
