What can I say about Ecuador? This small country is jammed between Colombia and Peru, yet it contains most of the climates known on Earth. On one day you can visit the towering icy Andes and the humid tropical Amazon jungle. Add to that an amazing coast and the Gallapagos Islands and you begin to imagine the greatness found in Ecuador.
I spent 2 weeks in mainland Ecuador during my 2001 Journeys through Latin America. I have posted my travelogue in here along with several tips. Enjoy!

The crater & lagoon are gorgeous. Hope I can find a way to get there in my upcoming short trip!
A llama would make a great souvenier to take home ;o) I thoroughly enjoyed your Ecuador and surrounding area pages. Great work! ~ Helen
Great photos and tips. Thanks loads. Gives me a few ideas as I head up. Cheers.
Quilotoa is one of my favorite places too. I agree that it is a very rich cultural experience. Your pictures are lovely too.
