Customer Reviews
- Rupinder· August 1st, 2025It was a memorable trip for us. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Ecuador & left with very good memories. All the guides & vehicles were great. Just one feedback for improvement ... accommodation in Quito (Yellow House) was a bit sub-standard (room housekeeping wasn't done at all during our first stay of 4 nights) ... I would avoid Yellow House in the future! Accommodation as well as breakfast in Banos was very good.Show more
- David· May 17th, 2025Ecuador is one of the most beautiful countries that I have visited. Its landscape is gorgeous. Its people are friendly and honest. The country is affordable. The food is delicious. The tour was fun! The local tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the country. The experiences were varied. We visited cities, parks, churches, mountains, restaurants, ruins, markets, and even a school. It was very fun. The tour was organized well by Jeferson. He made sure all my questions were answered before and during the trip. He was always available day and night. Airport pickups and drop offs were very helpful as well. Give Ecuador a chance. You will not regret it. Responsible Travel will take care of you.Show more
- David· May 10th, 2025Warm welcome by the team when we arrived in Ecuador! Well planned and thought out itinerary which gave us as first time visitors to the country a good feel for the culture, traditions and history. We loved the trip!Show more

Allison
Asked on July 31st, 2024does this tour allow solo travellers? On the booking page it asks to assign a second traveller to a room (double room) and there is no single room supplement.
- Responsible Travel South AmericaOperator•Written July 2024
Of course, this tour allows solo travelers! This trip was made especially for gay people with a minimum of 2 travelers, but I can arrange the tour for a solo traveler with a single supplement.

Allison
Traveler•Written July 2024How much would a single room supplement cost? Another question - as I understand the flights from Quito to the island are not included. Will you be providing details on the flight I will need to buy tickets for (to make sure we travel together, as a group)?
- Responsible Travel South AmericaOperator•Written July 2024
The total price for this tour including the single supplement is $3 500 USD. The Roundtrip Galapagos flights are included, so you don't have to worry about it.
