The tour has the right mix of group activities and free time for self exploration. Great food, multiple side adventure opportunities and a fun group made this trip very memorable.

  Traveler•Written June 2026
  Will the 8 confirmed travelers be joining from the start of the Highlands of Ecuador tour, or will they already have been traveling together on a longer combo itinerary before the tour begins?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written June 2026
  Both groups would start before the Highlands of Ecuador tour on the 12th September, so when the Highlands of Ecuador tour starts they would already be on the tour however some will be ending 19 September and the rest continuing till the 25th with you.
