Discover Ecuador differently: a respectful and in-depth exploration of Ecuador with Quimbaya Latin America

Ecuador, a multi-faceted country, offers much more than a simple trip made up of tourist tricks and clichés. With its varied Andes landscapes, snow-capped peaks, volcanoes and exuberant Amazonia teeming with biodiversity, every corner of this country reveals a wealth that is as authentic as it is surprising.

For 37 years, Quimbaya Latin America has been inviting you to discover this wealth, not only as a spectator but also as an active participant in an adventure deeply rooted in the respect and preservation of Ecuador’s culture and environment.

Quito: A magnificent capital renovated by sustainable modernity

Quito, the world’s second-highest capital after La Paz, perched at an altitude of over 2,800 meters in the Andes, is more than just a historic metropolis; it’s a living example of how the colonial past can coexist with modern management focused on sustainability. As you stroll through its historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you’ll come to appreciate not only its architectural and cultural wealth, but also the city’s efforts to minimize its ecological footprint. Quimbaya Latin America, having proudly obtained its Distintivo Q certification, a label of responsible and qualified tourism, has for years supported these initiatives by integrating public and green means of transport for its tours, thus reducing emissions while offering an authentic and unique immersive experience.

Ongoing support for local companies on a human scale

Crossing the equatorial line is an emblematic stage of a trip to Ecuador, for example, but with Quimbaya Latin America, we go one step further. Every visit to sites such as the Pululahua geobotanical reserve or the “Punto Cero” museum is accompanied by interaction with local initiatives.

By supporting family-run businesses, we help preserve heritage while promoting a sustainable economy. This approach shows how the stages of your trip are interconnected, with each experience reinforcing our global mission of sustainable tourism.

Quimbaya Latin America's ongoing commitment to Sustainable Tourism

Every aspect of our travels in Ecuador and throughout our 11 Latin American destinations is designed to respect the principles of sustainable development. When visiting sites like Ingapirca, Ecuador’s largest Inca archaeological site, Quimbaya Latin America doesn’t just guide tourists through the ruins; they work with local guides and support conservation projects that enable these historic places to benefit directly from the spin-offs of tourism. Not to mention their initiative through “ReFill Not Landfill”, a pioneering project aimed at reducing plastic waste in Latin America by providing reusable bottles to its travelers. These approaches ensure not only the preservation of heritage and the environment, but also employment and the enhancement of local traditions.

Nature in the service of education and conservation

Since the Amazon fascinates travelers from all over the world, Quimbaya Latin America doesn’t just offer a short, mindless jungle excursion; they provide an educational immersion in an ecosystem that is crucial to the planet.

For 37 years, Quimbaya Latin America has partnered with local guides and experts who take the time to explain the region’s biodiversity and ongoing conservation efforts. These tours aim to raise visitors’ awareness of the importance of conservation locally (and globally), while generating revenue to support environmental protection projects.

Enjoy Ecuador with a clear conscience

A Quimbaya Latin America tour would not be complete without the discovery of Ecuadorian flavors. Every meal is a celebration of local produce, grown sustainably and ethically. Cheeses, rum and traditional dishes are produced in partnership with local farmers who practice responsible agriculture.

These culinary experiences aren’t just a goldmine for travelers’ taste buds; they’re a window on Ecuadorian culture and a boost for the local economy.
