Ecuador: A Dream Destination

Ecuador is just like a dream. The country has a lot to offer for tourists. Isn’t it? It mainly likes to showcase that it is really four distinct destinations: the Galápagos Islands, the Amazon basin, the high Andean Sierra, and the Pacific coast. In fact, you can get to see much more here.

At the city of Quito, tourists can explore both colonial gems and modern pleasures. Cuenca is a true picture of colonial feel where you can explore treasure, with the Inca ruins of Ingapirca nearby. You can also visit the rain forests of the Amazon basin, and the mesmerizing cloud forests of Mindo and Bella vista, the dry forests of the southern Pacific lowlands, and the high-altitude paramo of the Central highlands. Travelers who are actively involved in horse riding can enjoy their ride to the Andean plains, or mountain bike down the slopes of active volcanoes. Bird-watchers can also enjoy here a lot as they have plenty to catch in Ecuador.
