Your wonderful tour begins from the city of Quito, 2850 meters above sea level, in the scenic landscape of the Andes. The city, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers evocative views through the streets of the center and strong references to the colonial era. With the engaging excursion to the equatorial line, in the place called “la mitad del mundo”, you will experience the thrill of being in the precise point where our planet is divided into two hemispheres.

 

Uncontaminated nature welcomes you among wooded areas, swamps, lakes, and rivers such as the Napo River, a tributary of the great Amazon River, where you can capture enchanting examples of local flora and fauna.

 

E day after day it will be an incredible succession of excursions to the most famous naturalistic sites such as the biological corridor of Panacocha, a protected area rich in biodiversity, and the verdant Yasuni National Park whose rainforest has been declared a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. The indigenous Huaorani still live in these pristine lands today.

 

Fun and adrenaline await you for the kayak experience on Blackwater Lake, a lake surrounded by dense wooded areas amidst exciting lights and colors.

 

The adventure in the Amazon ends with a stop on the Canopy Tower from which you can admire a beautiful landscape and many species of birds, small wild animals and reptiles typical of the tropical forest.

 

To end your holiday in style, you will spend a dream stay between the sea and relaxation in the enchanting Santa Cruz, a Paradise Island bathed by the turquoise sea where you will be pampered for four unforgettable days. From here, in the heart of the Galápagos, you will take some engaging boat excursions to the smaller islands among sightings of flamingos and turtles, which populate the lagoon area.

 

At the end of these two intense and emotional weeks, you will return to Quito for your return flight to Italy.
