Ecuadorian Andes Holidays


south & central america
Stretching from the colourful Otavalo market, north of Quito, through the towering peaks of the Avenue of the Volcanoes, to charming Cuenca in the south, the Ecuadorian Andes boast a host of highlights.

Secluded waterfalls and thermal hot springs await in the charming town of Baños, whilst the city of Riobamba, known as the ‘Sultan of the Andes’ occupies a stunning location at the foothills of Chimborazo volcano.

Dotted throughout the region you will find Incan ruins and charming haciendas surrounded by incredible views. Pretty Cuenca, with its red-tiled roofs and decorative plazas, was the birthplace of the Panama Hat. The city’s famous cathedral boasts three distinctive sky-blue domes.

Trailfinders offers a range of Ecuadorian Andes holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore the colonial towns and national parks on a sociable guided group tour or relax in a thermal bath on a private tour – they are the perfect people to ask.
