Today, your exciting journey to South America begins as you board your international flight from NEW YORK to Quito, the vibrant capital of Ecuador. Nestled in the Andean highlands, this captivating city sits at the foot of the Pichincha volcano and is one of the highest capitals in the world.
Upon arrival in Quito, you’ll be greeted and transferred to your hotel. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978, Quito is renowned for its remarkably preserved colonial architecture and rich cultural heritage. Known as the Cultural Capital of South America, it offers an atmospheric introduction to the continent’s blend of history and natural beauty.
The remainder of the day is at leisure. Depending on your arrival time, you may wish to relax at your hotel or take a gentle stroll to soak in the crisp mountain air and your first impressions of Ecuador’s highland charm. This day is designed to help you settle in comfortably and begin acclimatising to the altitude.
After breakfast, set out on a full-day journey to Otavalo, one of the most iconic and culturally rich destinations in the Ecuadorian highlands. Nestled amid rolling Andean landscapes, Otavalo is celebrated for its proud indigenous heritage, colourful markets, and timeless traditions.
Departing Quito, enjoy a scenic drive north through fertile valleys and traditional villages, offering ever-changing views of green hills and volcanic peaks. Along the way, pause to sample local flavours with a tasting of sweet chirimoya fruit and the famous Cayambe biscuits — a much-loved Ecuadorian treat enjoyed by locals and travellers alike.
On arrival in Otavalo, explore the renowned Plaza de los Ponchos, widely regarded as South America’s most famous indigenous market. Wander at a relaxed pace through vibrant stalls overflowing with handwoven textiles, embroidered garments, alpaca scarves, colourful tapestries, and finely crafted jewellery — each piece reflecting centuries of Otavaleño artistry and cultural pride.
The journey continues to the breathtaking Cuicocha Crater Lake, a shimmering volcanic lagoon set within the protected Cotacachi–Cayapas Ecological Reserve. Surrounded by steep crater walls and lush vegetation, this serene setting offers a moment of quiet reflection amid dramatic Andean scenery. A gentle boat ride across the turquoise waters allows you to fully appreciate the natural beauty and unique biodiversity of this high-altitude landscape.
Later, visit the charming town of Cotacachi, famed throughout Ecuador for its exceptional leather craftsmanship. Take time to browse boutiques showcasing beautifully made jackets, bags, belts, and accessories — or simply enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of this elegant Andean town.
A meaningful cultural encounter rounds off the day as you meet a local Otavaleña woman, who warmly shares insights into her community’s traditions, language, and daily life. This personal exchange offers a deeper understanding of Ecuador’s indigenous heritage and leaves a lasting impression beyond the sights themselves.
In the late afternoon, return to Quito, enriched by a day of culture, craftsmanship, and natural beauty in the heart of the Ecuadorian highlands.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch

After a restful night in the Andean highlands, begin your day with a guided exploration of Quito’s historic centre — a journey through time in one of the most beautifully preserved colonial cities in the world. Walk along the narrow cobblestone streets as your local guide shares captivating stories and insights into the city’s rich past and cultural legacy.
Marvel at architectural masterpieces such as the ornate Golden Church (La Compañía de Jesús), the bustling San Francisco Square, and the iconic Main Square, home to the Presidential Palace and majestic cathedral. These centuries-old buildings are the beating heart of Quito’s colonial soul.
You’ll then enjoy a special visit to the charming “Cruz Verde” workshop — a family-run candy shop where Don Luis and his ancestors have been making traditional “Colaciones” by hand for over 100 years. Learn about this time-honoured craft and taste the sweet flavours of a Quito tradition that has endured through generations.
Later, continue north to stand on the legendary Equator Line, where you can place one foot in each hemisphere and try the famous challenge of balancing an egg on a nail. This fun and curious spot is not only a photo opportunity but also a playful dive into geography and science!

In the evening, you may choose to enjoy a truly memorable authentic Ecuadorian culinary experience:

Perched high atop the iconic El Panecillo Hill, Pim’s Panecillo invites you to savour an elegant meal while gazing over the twinkling lights of Quito — one of the world’s highest capital cities.
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by the soft glow of lanterns and the warm ambiance of this hilltop restaurant, known for its romantic atmosphere and breathtaking vistas. Settle in with a welcome drink as you take in the majestic sweep of the Andean highlands and Quito’s colonial rooftops sprawling below.

Early this morning, begin an unforgettable journey from the Andean highlands into the heart of the Amazon Rainforest. As you travel along a scenic winding road, you’ll descend from an altitude of around 3,000 metres to 500 metres (9,843 ft to 1,640 ft), witnessing an extraordinary transformation in both landscape and climate. The lush greenery intensifies, and the crisp mountain air gives way to the warm, humid embrace of the tropics.
En route, stop at the breathtaking Guacamayos-Macaw Lookout, perched between the Antisana and Sumaco National Reserves. This incredible viewpoint, surrounded by low-elevation cloud forest, offers panoramic views of a misty sea of clouds floating over the Amazon canopy — a moment of serene beauty and a photographer’s dream.
Continuing your journey, arrive at the banks of the Arajuno River, where you’ll board a motorised canoe for a tranquil 20-minute ride upstream. Gliding along the water surrounded by dense jungle, you’ll reach your comfortable Eco Amazon Lodge, your base for rainforest exploration. After check-in and a short rest, enjoy the natural surroundings at leisure.
Before dinner, take part in a guided nocturnal jungle walk through the surrounding rainforest trails. This fascinating experience offers a rare glimpse into the Amazon’s vibrant nightlife, where you may encounter a variety of insects, frogs, and other nocturnal creatures that awaken after dark. It's a unique opportunity to witness the rhythm of the rainforest under the stars, adding a deeper layer of immersion to your stay.
Meals: Breakfast, Dinner
Wake up to the sounds of the jungle and prepare for a day filled with wildlife, culture, and adventure in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest.
This morning, you’ll visit amaZOOnico — one of the largest and most respected wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centres in Ecuador. Nestled deep in the rainforest, amaZOOnico is home to animals that have been rescued from illegal trafficking or mistreatment. As you walk through the lush sanctuary, you’ll have the chance to observe monkeys, parrots, ocelots, and other fascinating creatures up close. The visit offers a meaningful look into the centre’s mission to protect and rehabilitate native species.
During your time here, you’ll also learn about the traditional knowledge and customs of the local communities who work closely with the organisation, adding a cultural dimension to this memorable wildlife encounter.
In the afternoon, enjoy a change of pace with a fun-filled adventure on the Arajuno River as you go tubing through the Amazon. Float gently along the tranquil waters, surrounded by dense jungle and the sounds of tropical birds — a perfect way to soak in the natural beauty and serenity of the rainforest. This activity is both exciting and relaxing, and suitable for most fitness levels.
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
After a final morning immersed in the sights and sounds of the Amazon Rainforest, enjoy a hearty breakfast before beginning your return journey to the highlands. A short 20-minute motorised canoe ride down the tranquil Arajuno River will take you back to the Arajuno Bridge, where your overland transfer awaits.
As you ascend from the lush lowlands to the cooler Andean altitudes, take in the changing landscapes — from dense tropical jungle to mist-covered cloud forests and rugged mountain scenery. By afternoon, you’ll arrive once again in the capital, Quito.
Back in the city, delight your senses with a special artisanal chocolate tasting experience. Ecuador is world-renowned for producing some of the finest cacao on the planet, and today you’ll discover the rich aromas, textures, and flavours that make Ecuadorian chocolate so exceptional. Learn about the journey from bean to bar, and savour hand-crafted samples made from premium, locally grown cacao — a true treat for food lovers and culture seekers alike.
Meals: Breakfast
Today marks the beginning of your extraordinary journey through one of the world’s most iconic natural wonders — the Galápagos Islands. After breakfast, transfer to the airport for your morning flight from Quito to San Cristóbal Island, located off Ecuador’s Pacific coast. This volcanic archipelago, famous for its unique biodiversity, inspired Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and remains a living laboratory of life.
Upon arrival in San Cristóbal, you’ll be transferred to your hotel in the seaside town of Puerto Baquerizo Moreno, a laid-back gateway to the archipelago’s eastern wonders. After check-in, attend a short briefing session where your guide will walk you through the exciting days ahead and provide insights into the islands' unique ecology and travel logistics.
Take the remainder of the day to relax, soak in the sea breeze, or explore the charming waterfront of this island town — your Galápagos adventure has officially begun.
Meals: Breakfast
After breakfast, prepare for a spectacular day of discovery as we delve deeper into the unique ecosystems of San Cristóbal Island. Our first stop is the renowned Galapaguera, a protected giant tortoise sanctuary where you’ll have the incredible opportunity to observe these majestic creatures — also known as Galápagos tortoises — roaming in their natural habitat. Walking among these gentle giants, some of whom are over 100 years old, is a truly humbling and unforgettable experience.
Next, we head to Puerto Chino, one of the island’s most beautiful hidden gems. This pristine white sand beach is framed by volcanic rocks and turquoise waters, offering the perfect setting to unwind. Enjoy time to relax, take a walk along the shore, or simply soak up the serene coastal landscape.
In the afternoon, we continue to La Lobería, a stunning beach known as the permanent home of large colonies of Galápagos sea lions. We’ll take a guided 1-hour hike along a scenic coastal trail — please note, the path can be partially flooded during high tide. Along the way, keep your eyes peeled for some of the archipelago’s most iconic bird species, including the elegant red-billed tropicbird, the comical blue-footed boobies, and the striking Nazca boobies. You may also spot yellow warblers, frigatebirds, and a variety of Darwin’s finches, making this a paradise for bird lovers and photographers alike.
Meals: Breakfast
After a delicious breakfast, enjoy a free day to explore San Cristóbal at your own pace or choose from two exceptional optional excursions that offer further insight into the natural wonders of the Galápagos.
Optional Experience 1 – El Junco Lagoon: Begin the day with a visit to El Junco Lagoon, the largest natural freshwater reservoir in the Galápagos Archipelago. Nestled in the highlands, this scenic crater lake is surrounded by lush vegetation and is a haven for birdlife. It’s a favourite gathering place for frigatebirds, which can often be seen soaring above or dipping into the waters to rinse their feathers — a rare sight in the saltwater-dominated islands. The misty surroundings and elevated viewpoint offer a peaceful and refreshing experience.
Optional Experience 2 – Lobos Island: In the afternoon, you may opt to explore Lobos Island, a peaceful haven named after its resident colony of Galápagos sea lions. This narrow islet is also home to Galápagos fur seals, blue-footed boobies, and nesting frigatebirds. Short hiking trails lead through the island’s interior, where you can quietly observe the wildlife and soak in the unspoiled atmosphere. Back on the beach, enjoy superb opportunities for snorkelling and swimming in the calm, turquoise waters of the sheltered channel separating Lobos from San Cristóbal. With its clear visibility, this spot is often graced by sightings of manta rays and, occasionally, harmless reef sharks.
Note: These excursions are optional and available at an extra cost. They can be booked during the online booking process.
Meals: Breakfast
This morning, enjoy your final breakfast in the Galápagos Islands as you take in the peaceful island atmosphere one last time. Don’t forget to snap a few parting shots of the ever-charming sea lions lounging near your hotel or along the waterfront — a signature sight of San Cristóbal.
You’ll then transfer to San Cristóbal Airport in time to catch your domestic flight back to Quito, soaring once again over Ecuador’s contrasting landscapes — from volcanic archipelagos to the towering Andes.
Upon arrival in the capital, you’ll be transferred to your hotel. The remainder of the afternoon is free at leisure to rest, explore independently, or revisit your favourite spots in Quito. Whether you stroll through the colonial plazas or enjoy a coffee in a local café, this is a lovely chance to absorb the charm of this Andean city at your own pace.
Quito from Above – Cable Car & Panoramic Viewpoints
Later today, rise above the rooftops of the capital and venture to one of Quito’s most awe-inspiring attractions — the TelefériQo cable car. This scenic ride carries you high up the slopes of the Pichincha volcano, offering an unforgettable perspective on the city’s dramatic landscape and surrounding peaks.
As the cable car climbs to an altitude of around 4,000 metres (13,123 feet), you’ll be treated to sweeping views of Quito and the Andes Mountains beyond. From the top, weather permitting, you may even spot some of Ecuador’s most iconic volcanoes on the horizon, including Cotopaxi and Cayambe.
These panoramic lookout points offer a deeper appreciation of the city’s unique geography — nestled in a narrow valley and flanked by towering peaks. It’s the perfect spot for photography, reflection, and to take in the vastness of the Andean highlands.
Meals: Breakfast
After breakfast, journey into the heart of Ecuador’s lush central highlands as you travel to the charming town of Baños de Agua Santa, nestled between emerald mountains and overlooked by the misty slopes of the Tungurahua Volcano. Known for its tranquil atmosphere, dramatic scenery, and natural wellness, Baños offers a perfect blend of gentle exploration and relaxation.
En route, enjoy scenic Andean landscapes dotted with rivers, waterfalls, and fertile valleys, as your guide shares insights into the region’s geography and daily life. On arrival, begin your exploration with visits to some of Baños’ most beautiful and accessible natural highlights, ideal for travellers seeking memorable experiences without strenuous walking.
One of the highlights of the day is a visit to the famous Ruta de las Cascadas (Waterfall Route), where you’ll admire a series of spectacular waterfalls cascading through the rainforest-clad canyon. Stops are made at carefully selected viewpoints, allowing you to enjoy the scenery, take photographs, and soak in the peaceful surroundings at a relaxed pace.
Later, enjoy time to explore the town of Baños itself — a welcoming place known for its flower-filled plazas, small cafés, and artisanal shops. You may wish to visit the Basilica of Our Lady of Holy Water, an important pilgrimage site, or simply enjoy a leisurely stroll and a coffee while watching local life unfold.
In the afternoon, you’ll have the opportunity to unwind in one of Baños’ renowned thermal hot spring complexes, fed by mineral-rich waters heated deep within the earth. Surrounded by mountain scenery, these soothing pools offer the perfect way to relax tired muscles and enjoy the natural wellness for which Baños is famous.
As the day draws to a close, check in to your hotel and enjoy a restful evening in this serene Andean setting.
Meals: Breakfast
Please note: Today’s programme is designed to be flexible and unhurried. Participation in thermal baths is optional, and alternative leisure time in Baños can be arranged for those who prefer to relax at their own pace.
Today is yours to enjoy at leisure in the peaceful Andean town of Baños de Agua Santa, allowing time to slow the pace, relax, and absorb the natural beauty of this unique setting. Surrounded by cloud forest, waterfalls, and mountain scenery, Baños is the perfect place to unwind after the journey so far.
You may choose to enjoy a late breakfast followed by a gentle stroll through the town, where flower-lined streets, small cafés, and artisan shops invite you to linger. The central square offers a pleasant place to sit with a coffee, watch daily life unfold, and enjoy views of the surrounding hills.
For those seeking relaxation and wellbeing, Baños is renowned for its thermal hot springs and spa facilities. You may wish to return to the soothing mineral pools, enjoy a massage, or indulge in a wellness treatment — a wonderful way to ease tired muscles and recharge in a tranquil environment.

You may wish to take a gentle stroll through parts of the UNESCO-listed Historic Old Town, admire the city’s colonial architecture, or settle into a café to watch daily life unfold against a backdrop of mountain scenery.
