Too many highlights to mention. Rafting down the Arajuno River; snorkling with giant turtles; having our cycle rides interrupted by sea lions, giant tortoises and marine iguanas, etc etc…There were no low points. Food: Extremely high standard everywhere- even in “basic” looking places and roadside cafes the quality was much higher than I would have expected Guides: First class in every respect. Especially Jorge on the mainland (fountain of knowledge), Jan/Angel at Liana (nothing too much trouble), and Tanya on Isabela (who taught the children snorkelling and helped them get over their initial trepidations) Overall organisation: cannot fault any of it. Tom at Andean was particularly helpful and user-friendly for the prep, and as above all the people on the ground were excellent once we got there. We wanted to take the children to the Galapagos (they are really into David Attenborough documentaries…). Felt we needed an agency with people “on the ground” if we were going to do something like that. Combination of recommendations and googling led us to Andean for that purpose. We then chose places based on Andean’s recommendations for what would be good to do with children. Thanks for organising a great holiday and we will definitely recommend you to others.

» Galapagos Island Hopping: San Cristóbal, Isabela and Santa Cruz

Both Amazon rainforest and Galapagos were excellent. The boat selection and the cruise itinerary were outstanding. Everything was perfectly organised. All parts of the trip fully in line with the itinerary.  Local representatives were available at the meeting points, they organised the documentation, the transport, everything. Everything was excellent, the guides were very professional and helpful. Accommodation was also well selected, fully in line with the expectations.  Next time, we will spend more time in Ecuador and visit other parts of this fascinating country.
