1 Ecuador: Quito, Cotopaxi and Galapagos Island Hopping

2 Itinerary Day 1: Quito On arrival in Quito we will be met for a group transfer to our accommodation. On a clear day we should be greeted by the impressive sight of snowcapped Andean peaks in the distance. We stay at the heart of the colonial centre, the perfect location for exploring. Accommodation: Hotel Patio Andaluz (1 night) (Meals included: lunch and Day 2: Quito - Cotopaxi National Park Ecuador has history, fascinating indigenous cultures, lush tropical forests, spectacular snow-capped volcanoes and some of the most exciting wildlife on earth. You ll discover the World Heritage Site of Quito, the largest nature reserve of Cotopaxi National Park, and the volcanic island archipelago of the Galapagos. Located 600 miles west of Ecuador, the Galapagos Islands were created five million years ago by undersea volcanic eruptions. Their most celebrated visitor was Charles Darwin, who arrived aboard the HMS Beagle in The rare lifeforms he encountered helped him formulate his theory of evolution. The fame of this theory highlighted internationally the need to preserve this area, now a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is a unique and unforgettable experience to stay on these islands, giving you the opportunity to experience the culture, as well as the wildlife, long after the day visitors have left. Morning visit to colonial Quito, a city of narrow cobbled streets lined with whitewashed walls and, rising above, the steeples and cupolas of the city s many spectacularly decorated historic churches. The city has one of the best preserved colonial centres in all South America and its integrity was assured in 1978 when the United Nations declared Quito a World Cultural Heritage Site. We ll walk through the Main Plaza, where you ll see the Government Palace, the Cathedral, and some of the most important churches built during the 16th and 17th centuries, including the monastery of San Francisco which was started 5 days after the founding of the city in

At the end of the city tour we will visit the Panecillo hill, where we will be able to admire the famous Panecillo s virgin and spectacular views of Quito. After a delicious lunch in the old town, we will depart to Cotopaxi National Park. We ll break the journey with a walk along the Pita river canyon; the Pita river s source is the glacial meltwater of the giant of the park, the Cotopaxi. The walk will take about 1.5 hours and will explore waterfalls, look out for local birds, learn about plants and the incredible rock formation of this canyon. Continue the drive to Chilcabamba Lodge. Maximum Altitude: 3,470m. Walking time: 1.5 hours. Difficulty: Easy Accommodation at Chilcabamba Lodge (2 nights) Day 3: Cotopaxi National Park We will enter the northern getaway to Cotopaxi National Park (only 6kms from our lodge). Our first stop is Limpiopungo lagoon, located at 3,800m above sea level. It has many reeds in which you ll find nesting ducks, as well as Andean gulls and other birds that fly around the lagoon. A short easy walk around the lake will warm us up for a longer hike towards Rumiñahui Mount, named after a famous Inca general and known as the park s entry. This will take us right into the heart of the grasslands, passing small waterfalls before arriving at the stone plains. This walk highlights the grandeur of the Andes, offering you views over the eastern side of Sincholagua as well as Cotopaxi, the lord of the brilliant grassy foothills that never ceases to entrance hikers. Maximum altitude: 4,600m. Walking time: 4 hours. Difficulty Type of terrain: Grassland/ sand hills - Rocky / Moderate. Day 4: To Santa Cruz We take a morning flight to Baltra Island and transfer to Santa Cruz, to begin our exploration of the Galapagos Islands.

We visit the Charles Darwin Research Centre, where we learn about Darwin s theory of evolution. After an early lunch we drive to Puerto Ayora where our private speedboat waits to take us on a two hour journey to Floreana, also known as Santa Maria island. We check in at our lodge overlooking the Galapagos most beautiful and secluded bay. From here we take a short walk to La Loberia, a sea lion breeding ground, where we can snorkel or swim with sea turtles, sea lions, spectacular rays and lots of shimmering fishes.

We learn about the island s wildlife and the colourful history of some of Floreana s first inhabitants. Upon reaching Asilo de la Paz (Peace Haven), we enjoy a walk which visits this historic site, pirate caves, and the freshwater spring that provides water for the entire island. Watch out for giant tortoises lumbering around in the vegetation or even on the trail. Leaving Asilo de Paz, we walk down through the fields to see how the locals cultivate their crops. Back at the coast we take time to watch the frigate birds who dance as they wash their salty wings in the fresh water. With a little bit of luck, we may be able to see the males puffing up the red pouches on their chests in an attempt to attract females. We continue by Chiva down towards Las Palmas. On the way we will have spectacular views of the shoreline, and we ll enjoy lunch. This afternoon we return to the lodge where there s free time to do a little more exploring, to snorkel or swim in the bay, or just relax in this stunning setting.

We journey by boat to our next island, Isabela, where we ll have lunch. The journey will take approx 2 hours. Isabela is the largest, and arguably the most interesting of the islands in the Galapagos. Here you ll be able to get a close look at the very source of the spectacular history of the Galapagos visiting Sierra Negra, and its myriad of wildlife. After settling into our accommodation, we take a short walk (0.75 mile/1.2km) to the Giant Tortoise Breeding Centre, passing three lagoons along the way where we re likely to see flamingos. Accommodation: Isamar Hotel (3 nights) Day 8: Sierra Negra Volcano Today it s time to stretch our legs. We visit Sierra Negra, the largest crater of all the Galapagos volcanoes, and a At Volcán Chico you can see in miniature the process that formed the Galapagos. Two recent eruptions have laid bare the geology of the islands: massive lava flows; small cones and miniature tunnels can all be easily viewed and explored. We picnic on the top of the volcano and enjoy truly spectacular views over the central and northern parts of Isabela, as well as Fernandina, Pinzón and Santa Cruz Islands before returning to our hotel. Day 9: Isabela - Shark Canal and Wall of Tears This morning we will head to the Tintoreras islands, a Galapagos in miniature.

Day 10: To Quito Today we say goodbye to the Galapagos as we return by speedboat to Santa Cruz and a short journey across the Itabaca Channel returns us to Baltra for our flight back to Quito. This afternoon we have time to explore the city a little further, and to stock up on souvenirs before our final evening in Ecuador. Accommodation: Hotel Patio Andaluz (1 night) Day 11: Departure day Return flight back to the UK.. Day 11 Walks in the local area We walk down to Otavalo town to visit its food market. We will explore the market and learn about the different crops which are produced in the surrounding farmlands which we will be exploring today and tomorrow. We'll then visit the famous craft markets before our guide takes us on a fascinating tour of the nearby villages, introducing us to the local artisans and their methods of making the colourful textiles and crafts that you see displayed in the town. 6

7 This afternoon we'll explore a more rural area as we hike above these communities learning about smallscale agriculture, an important part of life in the valley. Meet people that continue to farm their land and learn about the products you saw earlier in the market, especially grain crops, like quinoa. The scenery is gorgeous and from this vantage point in the foothills of Imbabura, you can see all the places we hiked through in the morning. If it's a clear day you can even see Cotacachi Volcano.

Travel tips for a comfortable flight We ve put together a few simple tips to help make your flight as comfortable as possible, ensuring you begin your holiday in tip-top shape. Move about. Change position and avoid crossing your legs. Immobility poses the greatest risk in the development of clotting disorders. Get out of your seat and walk around as regularly as possible to improve circulation No pills. Unless advised by your doctor, do not take sleeping tablets on the flight; this will reduce your mobility and make you feel sluggish Protect your ears. If you experience discomfort due to the cabin pressure changes, suck a sweet, chew, or hold your nostrils and gently blow through your nose; this should equalise the pressure. If you still experience problems, speak to a member of the cabin crew Drink plenty. Ask a member of the cabin crew if you are thirsty. Avoid alcohol, tea, coffee or carbonated drinks as these will dehydrate you. Instead, try to drink plenty of fruit juices or water Eat light. Avoid heavy meals and foods air expands at altitude and heavy meals will result in that bloated feeling Moisturise. Your skin, especially your lips and nostrils, may feel dry so moisturising creams may help. If you wear contact lenses, always carry your glasses with you, as your eyes may feel dryer than usual Stay loose. Wear loose fitting, comfortable shoes and clothes Flight socks are recommended to help prevent DVT on longhaul flights Lost/damaged luggage If your bag or its contents are damaged or lost while in the airline s care, this should be reported to the baggage service agents at the airport.
