Ecuador Travel Guide - Start your Planning Here!

This guide is for the independent traveler. I like planning my own vacation for more flexibility and control (ok I admit I am part control-freak). No need for travel agents!

    I think its an excellent itinerary. I recommend that at the end of their journey through Ecuador go to Peru, there are many places you can know and they are not very expensive. If you do not have much time at least know the northern, there are beaches very good as Mancora and Punta Sal that are perfect for relaxing. If you decide to travel I suggest hiring a travel agency so everything is going to be easier. I recommend TurPeru, I used it when I traveled to Peru and it was very good. The website is www.turperu.com.pe
