Ecuador (Highlands & Galapagos)
1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions
Ecuador is a compact yet extraordinarily diverse country straddling the equator on South America's Pacific coast, best known for two iconic regions: the Andean Highlands and the Galápagos Islands. The Highlands are home to Quito — one of the best-preserved colonial capitals in Latin America — as well as active volcanoes, indigenous markets like Otavalo, and trekking routes through the Avenue of the Volcanoes. The Galápagos, an archipelago roughly 1,000 km offshore, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its fearless wildlife, pristine marine ecosystems, and the role it played in shaping Darwin's theory of evolution. Travellers come for world-class snorkelling and diving, wildlife encounters found nowhere else on Earth, and one of the most dramatic highland-to-island contrasts any single trip can offer.

Missions
Nobody's posted a Mission for Ecuador (Highlands & Galapagos) yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.
Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.
Be the first to post one: "Learn a completely impractical skill from a local — fire spinning, competitive coconut opening, whatever — and become weirdly good at it."
