This tour combines our Enchanting Ecuador with our ever-popular Exotic Peru, giving you the best of both countries. For its size, Ecuador thrills its visitors with an amazing variety of experiences. Exploring the old town of Quito and the biodiverse Amazon. Unwinding in the hot springs of Papallacta, and taking the Liberty Train to a town settled by former slaves. Spotting Andean condors in El Angel Ecological Reserve, and finding local treasures at the market in Otavalo. All this awaits you on the Ecuador portion of this itinerary, combining more aspects of this eclectic country than many other tour operators. Then there’s more! Your adventures continue in Peru, discovering the capital city of Lima, Cusco and the Sacred Valley, and the ancient lost city of the Incas, Machu Picchu, all UNESCO World Heritage sites. Whether you’re into history, culture, or just in it for the adventure, our Enchanting Ecuador & Peru tour is one trip you don't want to miss.
