How To Travel ECUADOR? Everything you need to know!

Before coming to South America, we hadn’t done much research about the small country of Ecuador. Sure, we knew about the Galapagos & that it was a popular place to visit the Amazon rainforest, but there was SO much more to “Republica del Ecuador” than we first thought!

Join us in this video as we hike the tallest active volcano in the world, stand on the equator, go white-water rafting, feed hummingbirds & LOADS more!

Ecuador is one of the most diverse countries in the world though it's comparably tiny. Beside the Galapagos Islands (which is the #1 tourist destination in Ecuador) the country has a lot more to offer, therefore I focussed on La Sierra in this video which is a paradise for landscape lovers and outdoor adventurers.

Another reason to visit the Andean region is that you have the chance to dive into the local culture and get a real feeling of Ecuador. The places to see in Ecuador I focussed on in this short video are the result of my own travels along the center from north to south and are easily doable in 2 weeks time.

Things to do in Ecuador covered in this video:
01) 00:36 - Otavalo market in Otavalo
02) 01:00 - Hike the Cuicocha lake
03) 01:25 - Middle of the World, Mitad del Mundo & Quitsato in Cayambe
04) 01:48 - Quito, capital & UNESCO World Heritage
05) 02:08 - Termas de Papallacta (hot springs)
06) 02:24 - Cayambe Coca National Park
07) 02:45 - Quilotoa & Shalala viewpoint
08) 03:13 - Tren Crucero & Nariz del Diablo (Devil's nose)
09) 03:47 - Inka ruins in Ingapirca
10) 04:04 - Cuenca & it's beautiful old town

What are your best things to do in Ecuador?
I’m looking forward to more tips from other travelers and Ecuador experts. Have you been and know of some cool places? Let us know in the comments below!

Ecuador - NOT What We Expected!

Is traveling to Ecuador on your Bucket List? It wasn’t for us, but this small South American country completely blew us away. Stepping into the Amazon jungle, visiting one of the world's most active volcanoes (Cotopaxi), swimming in some of the countless waterfalls and hot springs in the Andes mountains, and cruising off the Pacific coastline to witness the yearly Humpback whale migration, it was definitely a trip for the books. We fell in love with the warm and welcoming people of Ecuador, the environmental diversity, and the natural beauty of the land. Ecuador is the perfect destination for travelers looking to get off the beaten path and experience so much of what South America has to offer.

/// ABOUT ME ///

I’m Catalina, a Spanish teacher and language lover. I’m passionate about helping people learn Spanish, and I believe that everyone can achieve their language learning goals with the right tools and resources.

I’m also a big fan of travel, and I’ve been fortunate enough to travel to many different countries around the world. I believe that travel is one of the best ways to learn about a new culture, and I’m always looking for new opportunities to experience different cultures through language learning.

I was born in Colombia and I am a Spanish native speaker. I moved to the United States when I was 16 years old, and I’ve been teaching Spanish ever since. I love helping people learn a new language, and I’m always looking for new and innovative ways to make language learning fun and effective.

I started my website and my YouTube Channel to share my love of Spanish and Travel with others. I hope you’ll find my resources helpful and inspiring. Whether you’re just starting out with Spanish or you’re looking to improve your fluency, I’m here to help you reach your goals.

Housing isn't too expensive when you get a weekly or monthly discount. Depending on who you rent through, you can find accommodation in Ecuador as cheap as $200 a month! Here is a breakdown of some housing we saw and the average you can expect to spend in different cities.

Uyumbicho:

We spent $1154 for an entire month in a private, giant 3 bedroom house.
On average though you can totally find places here between $200-$500 for a month long stay.

Otavalo:

We spent $31 a night to rent a beautiful hillside cottage nestled on a small Ecuadorian farm. On average you can expect to spend around $30 a night to rent a private stay or home in the area.

Banos:

We spent $48 a night for a 3 bedroom apartment located downtown Banos. On average you can expect costs between $35-$55 a night for a private stay or apartment in town. You could also do your own thing and stay at a hostel here for between $6-$10 per night! Up to you!

Mindo:

We spent $80 a night at a resort here. This was a very nice place that offered a pool, massages and had a cafe. On average you could expect to spend around $60 a night to stay in Mindo Valley!

To get around you can use local taxis and busses or Uber. Uber is definitely cheaper than a taxi ride but you will need to be sure you look into its legality. For around $9-$13 with Uber we were able to go 45 minutes south of the big city of Quito to our little village of Uyumbicho.

Here is a link to our favorite car rental company! Remember to ask about the KM limit and cost for drop off and pick up if not from the city center.



Busses were a good option as well and can be very inexpensive! as little as $0.30 between villages and $9 for an hour long ride to the big city.


Adventuring is the way to explore any place you visit! Here is a quick breakdown of the adventures in this video, as well as our videos that share our entire experience of each adventure seperately!

1. Cotopaxi National Park: $10 a day, $10 + $2 to get in and camp and $10 + $10 to rent a bunk before your summit attempt.



2. The Quito, Basilica Del Voto Nacional: $3 a person



3. Canyoning in Banos: $90 a person or $75 with group rate HERES THE LINK TO SIGN UP FOR YOUR TRIP!





4. Chocolate tasting and tour, Mindo Valley: $10 a person



Food and drink can be a costly ticket when planning any trip. In Ecuador you can absolutely find affordable foods that you will love! You might not always make your own and that is okay here especially! Street vendors offer food for between $2-$5 a plate and restaurants will offer food from between $6-$15 a plate. There will be a %12 tax and %10 Service charge added at most hotels, resorts and restaurants. SHOP LOCAL AND RECYCLE!

We hope you found this video helpful and for anymore questions be sure to ask us directly in the comments!

Believe it or not, travel blogging is a great way to earn a living while traveling the world. In 2020, we took our hobby blog and turned it into a 6-figure business. Curious to see how we did it and how you can, too?

ABOUT ME
I primarily travel solo but you don't have to to enjoy this channel. Working as a river guide during summers in North America I don't earn a lot of money and live close to the federal poverty level. In spite of this I live a rich life on a frugal budget.
