Ecuador
After visiting several countries in South America I have to say that Ecuador is a great country to visit, it has everything (nature, lakes, vulcanos, national parks, colonial cities, tropical forest, beaches & islands, good local food) and good infrastructure & nice friendly people. To name a few highlights - Cuicocha lake, Cotopaxi vulcan, Cuilotoa lake, Cuenca, Cajas NP, Isla de la Plata, etc.
The best parts:
The whole trip was perfectly organised, itinerary, reservation of 10 different hotels along the route, reliable and comfortable car, national guide / driver Fausto & local guides in different locations. Thank you for such a diligent & professional job.
The worst parts:
Our Guide had to go abroad in the middle of the trip and was replaced by a driver who was not so knowledgeable as our original guide. To be precise we were allocated by the agency a different guide for the second half of the trip (however not a native from Ecuador), which we declined as we wanted a person form Ecuador to accompany us but the native driver, who replaced the guide for the second part of the trip was not so experienced.
