Geographically, Ecuador is a small country, yet is uniquely endowed with a dramatic topography and a variety of climatic zones, vegetation, birds, and wildlife.
Without ever leaving the country, the traveler can move in a matter of hours from jungle and rainforest to the foothills, the high slopes of the Andes, down to the Pacific coast, and then to the Galapagos.
Galapagos Islands: 600 miles away from the Continent
