Kathleen and Llamas at Cochasqui How do I describe three weeks of breathtaking biodiversity, sumptuous soups, mouthwatering tropical fruit, adventures in transportation, engaging conversations with informative and inquisitive local Ecuadorian guides, rich history and abundant wildlife, lots of laughter with my travel friend and fellow artist Kathleen, myriad amazing paintable images and. . . you get the picture.
With the help of our Adventure Life tour specialists we jam packed three weeks with an exploration of the Andes Highlands, an adventurous flight and boat ride into Kapawi Lodge in the Amazon Rain Forest, and a never to be forgotten eight day cruise through the Galapagos Islands on a 14 passenger/six crew motor sailor. Each trip was interspersed with a night at our home away from home, the Hostal de La Rabida in Quito, where we also spent three full days on the end of our trip.
In my style of journaling I tend to do a quick watercolor sketch on site and return to it a couple days later to write whatever comes to mind after I've had some time to digest the experience. You'll see a taste of Kathleen's art as well as mine in this e-journal. And of course, photos. Feel free to skip to the section of our trip that interests you!
It is so easy to book trips, the staff is very friendly and helpful and they respond to any and all questions

Mary was super helpful and patient. Answered every question and with candor (answers of “Everything’s equally great” aren’t helpful! 😎).

The trip planner I worked with, Jane, was excellent. She had travelled to Antarctica twice and was the voice of experience as she explained travel options to me. I've travelled internationally for many years for many years for business and pleasure including a number of adventure trips. It is a delight to work with such an experienced planner. I've used Adventure Life for three trips, Costa Rica, Galapagos and upcoming, Antarctica. I highly recommend them.

Clara was great to work with. She presented lots of options and always responded promptly. And she found excellent options within our price range.
