Quito, surrounded by volcanoes and sheltered by a deep blue sky. It’s historical ‘Old Town’ is the biggest in the Americas and it was the first city to be declared a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO because of its colonial center.

The Galapagos Islands, located 600 miles off the Ecuadorian mainland, and declared a World Natural Heritage by UNESCO, this archipelago is unique and one of the wonders of world. Its biodiversity thrived in a territory that emerged from the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean millions of years ago. Cormorants forgot to fly, iguanas learned to swim; turtles became gigantic, and sharks mild. Where sea lions show off their swimming skills and blue-footed boobies perform their elegant two-step mating dance right under your nose. Explore the home of Darwin's theory of evolution and many unusual species of animals. Bring your camera and sense of adventure!!
