Ecuador is at your clients' fingertips with Avanti's numerous FIT options for travelers.
From the Galapagos to the Amazon, the country offers some of the most biodiverse terrain in the world and with Avanti, your clients can seamlessly travel independently around the country from its Pacific beaches to its vibrant jungles and all of the wonders that the Galapagos hold.
A microsite crafted in partnership with Visit Ecuador puts the country's hidden treasures at your fingertips. This includes experiences such as the Quito Colonial City Tour and Cooking Class. The seven-hour tour was tailor-made and curated by the residents of Quito. Guests see the city's colorful landmarks and sample its delectable cuisines and even have the chance to roll up their sleeves and make a meal with some of Ecuador's savory staples.

Travel advisors can also book a craftsmen tour for clients. They can learn firsthand the skills and handiwork of the country's many artisans with a tour in Cuenca that showcases Gualaceo and Chordeleg's craftsman culture. Guests visit vendors and artists along the trail's many markets where they can see the creations come to life and how the Andean landscape inspires the handiwork.
Through Avanti's microsite, advisors can learn about accommodation options such as the Hacienda Zuleta, a four-star estate in Imbabura. Constructed in the 17th century, this alpine retreat in the Ecuadorean Andes is a historic hotel and a working dairy farm. Visitors can stroll the marketplaces of Otavalo, located nearby and see experience the magic of the mountains as they sample the artisanal cheeses and cuisine made on-site at the hacienda.
