Frequently asked questions about unique stays in Ecuador

  • Which airport should you arrive at in?

    It depends on your destination within the country. Mariscal Sucre International Airport (UIO) in Quito is the main international airport and serves the northern region. José Joaquín de Olmedo International Airport (GYE) in Guayaquil is the second largest and serves the coastal region. Smaller airports exist, but these two are the most convenient for international arrivals.
  • What is generally accepted for payment in?, cash or card?

    While credit cards are increasingly accepted in larger cities and tourist areas, cash (US dollars are widely used alongside the Sucre) remains king, especially in smaller towns and rural areas. Always carry some local currency for smaller purchases and in case of card machine failure.
  • How would you describe the safety of road conditions and driving habits in?

    Road conditions vary significantly. Well-maintained highways connect major cities, but many smaller roads are poorly maintained and can be challenging. Driving habits can be quite aggressive, so caution is advised. Consider using reputable bus services for longer journeys, especially at night.
  • What steps should you take if your passport goes missing in?

    Immediately report the loss to the nearest police station and obtain a police report. Then, contact your country's embassy or consulate in Quito or Guayaquil for assistance with obtaining emergency travel documents. Keep copies of your passport details and travel insurance information readily available.
  • Where should you spend a week to experience the best of?

    A week could allow for a diverse experience. Start in Quito, exploring its colonial Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and then head to the Galapagos Islands for a few days of incredible wildlife viewing. Alternatively, explore the Amazon rainforest and the Andes mountain range, focusing on a specific region like the Avenue of the Volcanoes.
  • Where can you have the best weekend experience in?

    For a vibrant city break, Guayaquil offers a mix of colonial architecture, modern amenities, and delicious seafood. For a nature escape, Baños provides easy access to stunning waterfalls, cloud forests, and adventure activities. Both locations offer plenty to see and do in a weekend.
  • What festivals in are highly recommended for visitors?

    The Inti Raymi, a celebration of the Inca sun god, takes place in June in various locations, including Quito. The Fiesta de la Mama Negra, a colourful religious festival, is held in Latacunga in November. These are just two examples; many smaller, regional festivals occur throughout the year, offering unique cultural experiences.
  • Does have Uber or comparable ride-hailing services?

    Uber and Cabify operate in major cities like Quito and Guayaquil, providing a convenient alternative to taxis. However, it's always advisable to confirm the driver's identity and use the in-app safety features.
  • What’s the top spot in for favourable weather conditions?

    The Galapagos Islands generally enjoy pleasant weather year-round, with average temperatures around 25°C. However, microclimates vary greatly across the archipelago. The coastal areas of the mainland, particularly in the Guayas province, tend to be warm and sunny.
