Tailor-made holidays to Ecuador

Ecuador is a great country to travel independently in, on a holiday tailor-made especially for you and to the dates that suit you best. 

Ecuador has lots to see and do, distances are reasonable, it is relatively easy to get around and there is usually a good choice of places to stay. 

Our tailor-made holiday service for Ecuador builds on our knowledge of Ecuador's regions, hotels and lodges to offer a completely flexible tailor-made service to suit a wide range of holiday preferences and budgets.

We design touring, wildlife, active & adventure, self-drive, and specialist birdwatching holidays in Ecuador and the Galapagos, and we can extend your trip to include Peru, Venezuela or Bonaire - which all connect well.

The following suggested itineraries show what's possible. Use them unchanged if they suit you, or take them as a basis for your own ideal trip. They can be shortened or lengthened, or adapted to suit you.

How our tailor-made holiday service works

When we are designing your tailor-made holiday to Ecuador we talk through your ideas and make further suggestions to fit your tastes and budget. We send you one or more no-obligation proposals in the form of full written itineraries with photographs of the hotels we are suggesting for you. These can be further refined until you are sure that the holiday will suit you well.

When you have settled on an itinerary for your holiday and sent us your booking form, we make the hotel reservations required, book flights, arrange airport transfers, hire cars, etc, and, if you would like a guide, we will select a trained and experienced English-speaking guide appropriate to your interests.  Meals can be included or left for you to decide during your holiday.

If you just want to visit one or two places on your holiday in Ecuador (and there are some excellent choices available), then it's simply a question of choosing the hotels you like. We will make reservations and arrange flights and road transport in Ecuador as appropriate.

Other types of Ecuador holiday

Small group trips, birdwatching, easy walking, challenging treks, mountain ascents, horse-riding, and more.

Why you should choose Geodyssey for your Ecuador holiday

How expert are we about Ecuador? The short answer is "very". We have travelled the length and breadth of Ecuador and stayed in or visited almost all the hotels, lodges and things to see that are described on this website, as well as many others. Having been designing travel in Latin America since 1993 we understand Ecuador from the point of view of our customers.

The best independent tour operators are members of the Association of Independent Tour Operators (AITO). In their recent annual surveys of customer satisfaction Geodyssey typically ranks in the top 5% of their members - a phenomenal achievement considering the sometimes difficult destinations we serve.

Conde Nast Traveler magazine expressed it well when they included Geodyssey in their Special Agent list:

"This list represents those who have impressed me the most with their knowledge of specific destinations and types of travel. They also possess a certain degree of frankness, friendliness, taste, the willingness to work with a range of customers and budgets, and an understanding of the types of experiences that Conde Nast Traveler readers want."

At all times you will have access to local 24 hour support, and back-up from the UK well beyond normal office hours. You are also financially protected.

A word of caution

Conditions in Latin America are less predictable than in Europe. A certain degree of flexibility is a great help to the enjoyment of travelling. If any problems you experience during your holiday remain unresolved we report these back to Ecuador and push for appropriate improvements.
