South America has always offered the adventurous tourist a world of opportunity, however Ecuador probably didn’t feature in many plan but things are changing. We take brief look at some of the featured destinations in Ecuador and some experiences you simple cannot afford to miss if you’re planning a trip here.
Quito, the Capital of Ecuado

The capital of Ecuador and main arrival point for international flights, Mariscal Sucre International Airport handles over 6 million passengers every year bringing visitors to the city and country. It’s actually the second highest capital city on earth, set on the slopes of the Pichincha volcano you can learn so much about Ecuador’s history here. Trekking and mountaineering are popular experiences and you don’t have to venture far from the city to start your adventure.
Renting a 4x4 in Ecuador
It’s no surprise that rental agents in Ecuador favour 4x4 and 4WD vehicles. The landscape beyond the confines of the city is rugged at best and road conditions poor, making a 4x4 rental in Ecuador a wise choice. Some of the most popular 4x4 rentals in Ecuador include the dependable Toyota Hilux double cab and the 7 seater Toyota Fortuner, although for those on a tighter budget not needing the space on offer from these, the Suzuki Grand Vitara offers a compelling alternative. We can arrange 4x4 rentals in Ecuador from the following locations;
- Quito – Mariscal Sucre International Airport
- Loja – Catamayo Airport
- Manta – Eloy Alfaro International Airport
- Guayaquil – Jose Joaquin de Olmedo Airport
