Guayaquil - Post Report Question and Answers
What have been the highlights of your time in this country? Best trips or experiences?
Galapagos excursions by land or sea are top notch and much more affordable than rates from the US. Cuenca, Manta, beach towns, Quito and other cities within the country are well worth one or more trips. Trips to Columbia, Panama and Miami are affordable and very interesting. Trips elsewhere in South America are harder to plan and more expensive than expected, but still well worth the effort and cost. - Aug 2022

There are a lot of fantastic travel opportunities in Ecuador: volcanoes, mountains, the Amazon, beautiful national parks, hiking, waterfalls, natural hot springs, and the Galapagos. Within about 6-8 hours driving or an hour or less flight you can access pretty much all the major sights in the country. - Oct 2020
