Adventure and other Activities
Although
it is one of the smallest South American countries, Ecuador
contains within its borders many regions of great variance.
This is the reason why you can bird-watch next to the pacific
coastline, trek through the rainforest and much more all within
a range of 200 miles. For the mountaineer, Ecuador is gifted
with the epic chain of the northern Andes.
For
the jungle explorer, there is a biological paradise within
the Amazon rainforest; and for everyone, our country offers
the living wonders and the warm pacific beaches of the Galapagos
Islands.
Any
adventure involves risk, and that's why EcuadorToursOnLine
selects with careful consideration the enterprises and the
teams to work with, based on their reputation and experience
within each of the areas of specialty.

Climbing Tours
The
accessibility of the Andes makes Ecuador ideal for climbing.
EcuadorToursOnLine has provided services for every level
of climbers by allowing acclimatization time. All climbers
will enjoy the high altitude, challenging Andes routes
like in Cotopaxi National Park, whose cone-shaped centerpiece,
the 5900-meter Cotopaxi Volcano, is the world's tallest
active volcano.
The most reliable and experienced climbers will lead
you to the beautiful peaks of the Ecuadorian Andes.
We have included details about the level of difficulty,
program itinerary and other useful information of each
one of the summits.

Trekking
To
get well acquainted with the rainforest and the highlands,
one needs a certain amount of time and tranquillity,
because hectic ways are unknown in this country. There
are a number of breathtaking treks through the Andean
sub-alpine zone, which feature spectacular views of
Ecuadorās monumental volcanic peaks, and our main trek,
which gives you the deep green jungle of Aguarico National
Park.
These adventures allow you to explore and to discover
Ecuador's wonders in a way that not only allows you
to walk amongst the flora and fauna of this country,
but also understand the endangered ecosystems that exist
here.

Rafting
Ecuador
is being considered as one of the world's hottest spots
for white water rafting in the world which in not surprising
when it has more white water per square mile than any
other country on earth. Our rafting trips will take
you down two of the most popular rivers out to experience
which are the Toachi and Blanco rivers. These cascade
down from the western Andes, flowing through tropical
forest toward the Pacific Ocean.
Once on the river you can expect both the action of
thrilling white water and the peacefulness of drifting
silently through tropical rainforests. Enjoy the excitement
of tours of 1 or 2 days on these class III and IV rapids.
Or share one of the best-kept river secrets in the world,
the Upano, for a tour of 5 or 8 days of class IV and
IV+ rapids.

Kayaking
Ecuador
because of it´s location in the middle of the
world and straddled by the Andes makes this country
an ideal paradise for warm tropical white water kayaking
or river kayaking on both slopes of these mountains.

I to IV, ideal for learning as well as for experts looking
for adrenaline. We believe this is one of the best ways
