Ecuador packs the whole of Latin America into one compact, spectacular country — the Andes, the Amazon and, of course, the Galápagos Islands. From the colonial streets of Quito and the volcanoes of Cotopaxi and Quilotoa to the market town of Otavalo and the wildlife-rich shores of the Galápagos, there is astonishing variety within short distances. Viventura, a Latin America specialist since 2001, explores it on small-group journeys of up to 12 travellers.

From the founder himself
For more than 25 years, it has been my passion to show travellers the real Latin America – not only its famous sights, but everyday life as it is lived today. Our journeys are designed to be enjoyable and meaningful, which is why I still review them personally.
I’m Andre. I founded Viventura in 2001 and have spent my life exploring this continent. Ecuador – from the volcanoes of the Andes to the wildlife of the Galápagos – captures everything I love about Latin America in a single, unforgettable country.
With Viventura, you travel like an insider, guided by a local team I built myself. You won’t simply see Ecuador, you will feel it. That is my personal promise.
Since our first journey over 25 years ago, more than 2,000 travel reports from tour leaders and travellers have been written. Each one tells a personal story and shows you who travels with us, which moments move people, and what it truly feels like to explore with Viventura. No glossy advertising – just honest impressions that paint an authentic picture and reveal, even before your own trip begins, why our tours are so memorable.

Ecuador is a year-round destination, and the wildlife calendar is a big part of deciding when to go. The Galápagos follow two rhythms: a warm season (December to May) with calm, clear water that is ideal for snorkelling, and a cool season (June to November) when the nutrient-rich Humboldt current fills the ocean with life. On the mainland, the Andes are at their clearest and best for walking from June to September. Here is what you can expect to see, both in the water and on land.
