Ecuador, an eloquent tapestry of cultures and ecosystems, speaks volumes about the rich history of South America. Nested between Colombia, Peru and the embracing arms of the Pacific Ocean, Ecuador is home to a sundry populace that celebrates ethnic diversity. Soaked in the splendid remnants of pre-Colonial cultures and Spanish colonial influence, its history is a vibrant collage of Indigenous traditions, Spanish conquests and the quest for independence.

The mystical Galápagos Islands, which dot the Pacific about 1,000 kilometres from the mainland, belong to Ecuador. Steeped in a rich historical lineage, they are brimming with endemic species and a paradise for lovers of wildlife. On the mainland, from the cobbled streets of Quito to the Andean highlands, Ecuadorian tales of the Inca Empire, the Spanish missionaries, and the struggle for freedom from colonial reign echo across centuries.

The coast and Amazon regions have thrived relatively autonomously, shaping distinct identities within the nation's multifaceted character. As a developing country, Ecuador finds strength in its commodity exports, but it is the nation's respect for nature – exemplified by its legally binding Rights of Nature – and its commitment to preserving its precious biodiversity that truly sets it apart. This devotion to environmental responsibility makes Ecuador a truly unique and responsible travel destination.

When to visit Ecuador

When to visit Ecuador? The answer lies in what you seek. December to May, when the beaches bask in their prime, present an impeccable time for beach-hoppers and sunseekers. Despite being the rainy season, the warmth that envelopes Ecuador's shores more than makes up for the occasional showers.

It's a perfect time to traipse around the historic city streets and trek in the Andes without having to worry about a sudden downpour. And if an expedition to the Galápagos Islands is on your bucket list, private tours are an excellent way to dive into an active adventure holiday – an absolute must-visit in South America.
