Explore Ecuador
Escorted by Janice Bock

Based at our comfortable First Class Hotel in Quito we do day trips with our local guide to experience the diversity of the mainland. From Quito we fly on to the coast and 1000 km more to the unique Galapagos Islands that Darwin found so incredible.

WHAT CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

(We) chat about our trip often...The Galapagos is a magical destination....I plan to go back some day.  The trip was well - organized and well-paced with the smaller sized group (12)...definitely a 'must-see destination"."      
Marilyn B.

"....getting up-close-and-personal with the fauna and flora of the islands was indeed 'a dream come true'...."
