  • Ecuador ↗Check entry rules for your passport with Ecuador's Ministry of Foreign Affairs or an Ecuadorian consulate.
  • Ecuador ↗The Galápagos has its own entry controls: a transit control card bought at the airport before departure, a national park entrance fee, and inspections for food and plants. Check official Galápagos rules before booking.
  • Ecuador ↗Several coastal provinces (including Guayas, where Guayaquil is) are under official warnings and periodic states of emergency; read your government's advice before routing through them.
  • Quito and the northern Andes ↗Spend two or three nights in Quito before hikes above 3,500 m; go up in steps.
  • Quito ↗Day 1 at 2,850 m: no more than two hours of walking, drink water, skip alcohol, and keep hard hikes for day 3 or later.
  • Quito ↗After dark in the Historic Centre and La Mariscal, use a taxi or ride-hail car from door to door; do not walk between clusters.
  • Quito ↗Old-town streets are steep, cobbled and often stepped: large suitcases go from the car to the hotel door, never on a walk.
