Quito, Ecuador – Getaway to the Glapagos Islands
To American travelers, the thought of visiting Ecuador often seems out of reach, and we think that’s quite a shame.

We managed to round up a few representatives from Quito, Ecuador to introduce us to the country and hopefully explain why they deserve a spot on your upcoming bucket list of travel.
