Ecuador Wildlife Holidays
A small country straddling the equator, Ecuador’s remarkable Galapagos Islands are famous the world over. This small volcanic archipelago 1,000 kilometres of the west coast of the country is home to many endemic species and is indelibly linked with Charles Darwin, his theories on natural selection and the book ‘On the Origin of Species’. With close to 200 species of bird and many rare mammals and reptiles including the green sea turtle, Galapagos tortoise, marine iguana and Galapagos land iguana, this biosphere and marine reserve offers some of the finest wildlife viewing on the planet. On the Ecuadorian mainland, the Amazon region and Yasuni National Park are also home to an incredible variety of insect, reptile, marine and bird life. Every Ecuador wildlife tour that we design is one-off, memorable and special.
