Ecuador Traveler Stories

We drove from Quito down to Mancora, Chiclayo, Trujillo, Lima, Ica, Nazca, Arequipa, Puno and Cuzco in 17days, Visited lots of wonderful places... a trip to remember for ever!!!

Hiking and snorkeling San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, and Isabela islands

Quito, a trip to Sacha Lodge in the Amazon, and a 5-day Galapagos Island cruise. I was amazed at the incredible variety in environment and landscape I found in such a tiny country. And the wildlife did NOT disappoint!

A fab adventure trip and experience with a great group and guide. Action packed and lived up to the description with activities. Each day was filled and we went to bed at night ready for sleep and to restore some older muscles. Memorable and great fun.

When I got on the plane in New York City (Jan 26th) it was 11°F and when I got off the plane in Quito, Ecuador it was 80°F degrees.

The land-based Galapagos Multi-sport trip was perfect for us. We really enjoyed the individual charm of San Cristobal, Santa Cruz, and Isabela. Photos and text originally published at our web site http://www.craigandstephsvacations.com

An absolutely amazing trip. The reason for the trip was to visit our daughter who was studing in Quito for a semester. We can't wait to go back to the Galapagos Islands. Adventure Life, great job booking everything, no problems anywhere. Beautiful place

My husband and I went on the Galapagos Multi-Sport trip. It was incredible!

I can sum it up in one word.... AMAZING!

This journal details my experience on Adventure Life's \"Ecuador Adventurer\" trip in July of 2006. A great time was had by all exploring Quito, coasting down mountain roads by bike, hiking the cloud forest, whitewater rafting, and trekking the

Imagine ... swimming with Green Sea Turtles or Sea Lions or Galapagos Penguins (that's right swimming),or having a baby waved albatrosses in the middle of your walkway. That and more is what we saw and did in 8 days on 11 islands.

Fantastic trip through the Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu, then out the the Galapagos for a once in a lifetime journey.

For our honeymoon we wanted to do something fun and eco-friendly. Our trip was exactly what we wanted. It was a nature lovers paradise. And it was filled with good people, good food, and awesome adventures.

Galapagos Multisport and a family vacation with Betty, our Ecuador coordinator! We had wonderful guides and wonderful company to experience these beautiful places! We saw many species of birds, fish, and we even saw giant tortoises! We snorkeled, went horseback riding and even hiked around volcanos. It was a great trip to spend with my mother and …

Never a dull moment in the Galapagos, when I wasn't having my picture taken with a giant tortoise or sea lion, I was snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, biking or horseback riding through the remarkable landscape. I also got to get up close and personal with my different kinds of birds! An excellent Galapagos adventure!

I had an adventure of a lifttime and would not have missed it for the world even if I had known I would be caught in quicksand and stranded in the rainforest. I'll hold dear to my heart the camaraderie, and will always remember our splendid teamwork

My first trip to South America. Though thoroughly scared of snakes, I WANT to see an Anaconda (from a safe distance preferably). That will be my quest.

An account of the adventures and epiphanies of a diverse group of travelers in Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands.

What a trip! I'll let the pictures speak for themselves - there's probably no need for descriptions, but I'll give it a shot. Can't wait to go back to see some of the other islands that we weren't able to visit this time.

I hiked part of the trek on our Ecuador Adventure trip and visited the village of Oyacachi too. I enjoyed staying with my dear friends, Betty and Marcelo and catching up with them. We hiked along mountain ranges and lakes, beautiful greenery and hot springs! And of course, I was very sore for my conference the next day!
