Ecuador

Ecuador will amaze you with its lush rainforests, soaring Andean peaks, and the Galapagos Islands.  Take a walk in the steps of Darwin and catch a sight of giant tortoises lumbering over the volcanic landscape.  Last but not least, don’t let its small size deter you; Ecuador packs a punch.

Ecuador’s official currency is the US dollar.

Ecuador’s official language is Spanish, however travellers to the region will encounter indigenous languages and a mix of other European tongues.
