Luxury Travel Tips for Visiting Ecuador
Quick Hits:
Pack for varied climates: between the cool Andes, steamy rainforests, and subtropical Galapagos, a raincoat and layering will bring security for any environment.
Buy water bottles: Locals will never drink tap water unless it has been purified, so be aware when brushing your teeth and keep bottled water in your room.
Be prepared for bugs: Bug spray is your friend when exploring the Amazon and Galapagos.
Try local delicacies: Don’t miss fresh seafood on the coast or farm-to-table dining in the highlands.
Add flex days for spontaneity and rest.
