Are you planning an Ecuador vacation? Well, planning just got easier, cover all your bases with this quick fact guide to Ecuador. With basic Ecuador travel information you will be fully prepared for your exciting vacation.
Bordered by Peru and Columbia, Ecuador sits in the north of South America, with its west coast bordered by the Pacific Ocean, its easy accessibility to neighboring countries and the ocean make it the perfect place for your South America travel. Ecuador has four geographical regions, the highlands, the Amazon, the coast, and off its shores the Galapagos Islands. With such diverse regions it is important to consider the climatic changes for each region so you are properly prepared for your Ecuador travel, where ever it may be.
If you plan on visiting the Ecuador highlands be sure to pack in layers! Through the day temperatures will change drastically, from cool mornings to warm afternoons and back to chilly temperatures at night, sometimes as low as 5C. The Ecuadorian Amazon could not be any different, as its steady hot and humid climate lasts throughout the year. The humidity in this region is only amplified by the rainy season from January to May. The coast of Ecuador is perfect for relaxing on the beach; the best beach weather is between January and May, which coincides with the rainy season. Though rain should be expected in the afternoons, these are the best months for beach activity, as mornings and early afternoons are filled with sunshine. The dry season on the coast often brings overcast skies and cooler temperatures, not as desirable for beach fun. The Galapagos Islands, often visited for its diverse and unique wildlife, are great all year round; however misty skies can be found during the dry season from June to December.
Once you have your dates picked for your Ecuador travel it is important to get all the paperwork and documents needed for your vacation done ahead of time. All nationals entering Ecuador as a tourist need a passport valid for six months after their expected travel dates. As for Ecuador’s VISA requirements, Ecuador does not require a VISA for Australian, British, Canadian, or US citizens for stays up to 90 days.
When it comes to getting to Ecuador, most major airlines fly one of the country’s major airports. The two major airports of Ecuador can be found in Quito and Guayaquil. Quito’s airport, Aeropuerto Mariscal Sucre and Guayaquil’s airport, Aeropuerto Simon Bolivar, are both international airports, and your flight should be booked in accordance to your Ecuador travel plans and destinations.

The main issue is that they don’t offer correct numbers in their website page and you have to arrange all your course, enter your own information, and after that entrance to a screen where the cost will be computed.

A Young Traveller’s Guide
Vienna, Austria, is a beautiful city with a colorful history, it is a cultural center especially for Classical and operatic music and the arts. As the former capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, there are countless Imperial monuments and palaces, many spectacular museums and ornate churches and cathedrals. It is a city of many concerts, a city of dignity and pride. This colorful city has always been one of my favorite destination.
Wiener Riesenrad is a giant Ferris wheel that is located in the Wurstelprater amusement park in Prater, one of the city’s many parks. A ride on this majestic wheel costs just €8 euros (or about $10 US dollars or £6.50 British pounds sterling), but exploring the park and surrounding area is free and gives you a great feel for the city.
For the Classical Music Enthusiast
Vienna is well-known for its Classical and operatic musical heritage. Vienna saw the development and popularity of the “great master composers,” C.P.E. Bach, Gluck, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, and Salieri; and they led the way to the Romantic period of Schubert and others. Vienna is very orientated to this musical tradition.
One of the main attractions in Vienna is the Mozarthaus, the composer’s former residence on Domgasse that is now a museum and small concert venue; it’s most certainly worth the €8 ($10.40, £6.50) student price! Mozart-themed places and events are all over Vienna, and there is a chain of souvenir shops called Mostly Mozart (that sells Mozart chocolates). The Mozart statue at the Hofburg Palace that is a must-see due to the music note made of flowers in front of it, cafés and restaurants named after him, and the Mozart/Strauss concert at the Kursalon that has reasonably priced tickets and many performance options. Haydn, Schubert, Strauss, and Beethoven also have houses/museums dedicated to them throughout the city-there is no lack of Classical music here!
If you’re going to Europe, and planning on traveling, rather than staying in the one place for the duration of your vacation, and you don’t want to spend a fortune, there’s two or three alternative ways that you can travel throughout the continent.
The first option would be to take what you might call the “traditional” budget alternative, which would generally be backpacking and traveling by train. Nothing wrong with that at all, and by using a pass on the trains (known as a Eurailpass, and available in the USA from []) you can certainly reduce your spending, whilst journeying widely throughout many countries.
There are, however, a couple of down sides to this traditional “budget” planning.
First, whilst it can often be exhilarating and exciting to meet and travel with strangers on a train, equally, sometimes, it’s nice to have your own space to enjoy the journey, on your own.
Secondly, by definition, trains can only take you as far as the railway station, and railway stations are not always placed where you want them to be placed. In other words, if you have definite “target” places that you want to see, then you might end up having to take a train, then a bus or taxi (for who knows what distances) before arriving at your destination. This shouldn’t be a problem if the place you so desperately want to visit is in the city, but what if it not?
Another way I found to beat the heat of summer was of course having what Italy is so famous for…gelato! I must have tried just about every gelato shop in the city and there was not a bad one to be had! Be totally amazed at the mounds of icecream that will confront you and spend ages making your choice. I was absolutely in awe of the size of the scoops! I highly recommend doing a Vatican tour as the professional guides know all of Rome’s best kept secrets and are happy to share them.
