Unforgettable Honeymoon

This was an amazing, unforgettable adventure. I felt as if we truly got to experience the best of mainland Ecuador through this trip. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. There were a variety of activities: some favorite from the week were horse riding, visiting the hot springs, and visiting indigenous communities. There was a nice balance between being active and relaxing. The accommodations were comfortable, and the food was excellent. Be prepared to be engage in several hours of physical activity each day, open minded about other cultures, and tolerant of bugs, weather and other aspects of nature. We went for our honeymoon and it was truly the adventure of a lifetime for a very reasonable price. I only had two slight issues that were both resolved; the schedule was confusing because the itinerary changed. Also, one of the guides made us pay for an activity, not realizing that admissions for activities were included in our ticket. That was resolved though.

Response from the operator: We are happy you had a good experience with us, he hope you can return to Ecuador soon. :)

Excellent

Everyone was very helpful at times over the top which was much appreciated. Our guides Carlos, Dario, and driver Jefferson were exceptional and couldn't do enough for us. All the activities and there were many allowed us to leave Ecuador with a appreciation of both jungle and the highlands. Strongly recommend.

Response from the operator: I thank you for trusting us for your visits in Ecuador and we are happy that you have enjoyed this time. We hope to see you again.

I seek recommendation

I haven't taken it yet but I want to book it, they could tell me which agency is in charge of the tour, so I can investigate. Thank you.

Response from the operator: Buena tarde estimado(a), Claro que sí, operamos como Live-Ecuador o GAIA Ecuador tours y muchos de nuestros programas en la selva los realizamos con Suchipakari Jungle Ecolodge que es nuestro principal aliado. Si usted tiene alguna inquietud adicional por favor no dude en contactarnos. Saludos Cordiales

The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.

How much does The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $370 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quito usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour take?

+

Plan for about 144 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quito is not rushed.

Is The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quito, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 144-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour?

+

Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quito can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quito and add a light layer if any part of the 144-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does The Ultimate 6 Day Route through Ecuador's Andes and Amazon Tour start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quito within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Quito?

+

On Outty we rank every Quito experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotopaxi tour from Quito -horseback ride and hike-NO TOURISTY way, Baños Full Day Tour from Quito Including Entrances and Activities, Gastronomic and Cultural Walking Tour of Quito with Tastings. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Quito?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Quito?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
