Thanks to Ecuador's varied terrain and small size, there are a myriad of activities one can enjoy while in Ecuador. Adventure sports such as mountain climbing, horseback riding and whitwater rafting are all available as are cultural activities. Ecuador is distinguished by its extraordinary topography, diverse climates and cultures, and its abundant flora and fauna. Travelers who choose Ecuador will find endless attractions, ranging from tropical jungles and impressive Andean volcanoes to the unique living laboratory that is the Galapagos Islands.

A visit to the Galapagos is a fantasy come true. Who could resist the sight of a mystical moonscape on earth, giant tortoises large enough to ride, prehistoric iguanas, sea lions, whales, and hundreds of other endemic species (only found on Galapagos). Tours to the Amazon Rainforest and the Ecuadorian Andes are no less spectacular; navigate a river covered by a towering jungle canopy or trek the dizzying Avenue of the Volcanoes that splits Ecuador in two.
