Ecuador nestled right on its namesake (the equator) is not only your gateway to the Galapagos but has plenty of character and culture all its own. Here you can retrace the steps of Charles Darwin, flirt with sea turtles, hike a volcano, visit the Amazon, and wander the charming Spanish-inspired streets of Quito. Spur Experiences offered in Ecuador are a trip to the Galapagos, an eco-lodge in the Amazon, and a day trip to the top of a volcano.
