Here, you can sail into a turquoise cove with no other boats in sight, walk barefoot down a powdery white beach, sit yourself down on lava rock and watch a baby sea lion sneak up for a closer inspection. A pantheon of the animal kingdom's strangest and most wonderful creatures await just off the coast of Ecuador, and here, you'll get closer to them than you ever thought possible. Discover Ecuador &amp; the Galapagos Islands on a private, bespoke trip—tailored-made your way. Here are a few ideas to help get you started.

Ecuador is a masterclass in contrasts—volcanoes and cloud forest, ancient culture and wild frontier. Trace cobbled streets through Quito’s colonial heart, then retreat to an Andean hacienda where fine wine and sweeping vistas await. Drift down Amazon waterways beneath a curtain of green, alive with birdcall and howler monkey cries. Then set your sights on the Galápagos, where evolution comes to life—snorkel with sea lions, stroll past sunbathing iguanas, and watch giant tortoises roam free. A place of deep wonder and quiet luxury, Ecuador and the Galapagos invite you to go far and go deep.
