Free Guides: All You Need To Know About Ecuador

Ecuador is the country of four worlds in the middle of the world. Here you’ll find the Galápagos, the Pacific Coast, the Andes and the Amazon, all in close proximity. It’s an unbelievably diverse and contrasting land that packs a huge amount into an incredibly small area – it’s only the size of Colorado State or Great Britain. Measured by square mile, Ecuador is the world’s most biodiverse country – and a brilliant place for adventures in culture and nature.

Below, you’ll find a range of free guides we’ve produced to help you get to know the country better and plan your visit. They’re full of tips and advice for making the most of your time, from attractions, routes, hiking, biking, rafting and surfing, as well containing plenty of info on travelling safe and what to eat where.
