About this trip
This week pairs Ecuador's capital with the Galapagos Islands, starting in Quito's old town before flying out to the archipelago.
In Quito you walk through one of the largest and best-preserved historical centres in South America, taking in its old churches and colonial streets. From there it's a flight to the Galapagos, where the focus shifts to the islands' wildlife and plant life, much of it found nowhere else on earth.
It's pitched as an easy-paced trip with private rooms throughout, making it a straightforward option for families or anyone wanting Galapagos wildlife without a demanding itinerary.
