Ecuador Luxury Tours

Nature lovers will revel in Ecuador’s vibrant palette of wildlife, turquoise lagoons and breath-taking landscapes, spanning dense jungles and rugged volcanic mountain ranges.

As part of our 10-day luxury Silver Galapagos cruise, your adventure begins in Ecuador’s thriving capital Quito. Wander through the bustling Otavalo Market and browse its range of handwoven textiles, souvenirs, jewellery and clothing. Then, marvel at the baroque splendour of the ornate 18th century la Compañía and its stunning gilded interior. Admire the gothic-Medujar architecture of the Cathedral of Quito, before making your way to Equatorial Line Monument, where visitors can simultaneously stand between both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Stroll along the historic Plaza de la Independencia and visit the Carondelet Palace museum for a fascinating insight into Ecuador’s cultural heritage.

A gateway to the Galapagos Islands, you’ll head on from mainland Ecuador to the Galapagos, embarking on a cruise to one of the Galapagos’ oldest islands, San Cristobal, formed by immense volcanic activity. Explore Kicker Rock, affectionately referred to as the León Dormido – the sleeping lion – where snorkelling adventures await along its coral reefs. Keep vigilant for sightings of humpback whales, green sea turtles, eagle rays, white-tipped reef sharks and possibly hammerheads too.

As you journey across the Galapagos by zodiac boat, you’ll also discover a wealth of fascinating birdlife, including flightless cormorants, the blue-footed boobies of Bartolome, flamingos and the white-cheeked pintails of Playa Espumilla. With an abundance of exotic fauna and flora, the Galapagos Islands offer a truly breath-taking backdrop for adventure.
