Project Description
Have you ever heard the proverb that the best things come in small packages? Applied to Ecuador, this couldn’t ring more true! While it’s surface area is merely the size of the state of Nevada, it ranks as the most biodiverse country per square mile on the entire planet! In fact, travelers describe the significantly different landscapes found in Ecuador as four different worlds converging as one. Swim with sea lions at the famed Galapagos Islands, kayak the rapids of the Amazon jungle, scale the Andean highlands, or bask in the sun and sand of the Pacific Coastline. For the metropolitan traveler, the cities of Ecuador are just as alluring as the natural elements are abundant! Photographers, get your cameras ready! The cobblestone streets and colonial architecture found in quaint historical city centers are the very definition of picturesque. Head to the Andean villages and you’ll be met by sprawling markets full of vibrant art and textiles. Craving adventure? Take a hike to one of the country’s many towering volcanoes or even visit the world’s largest active volcano- Cotopaxi. As the saying goes, “All you need is Ecuador,” And we think that they just may be right!
