点评:We (husband and I, age early 60s) booked with Ecuador Birds Tours for 8 days birding in the cloud forest and high elevations around Quito and 8 days cruising in the Galapagos. The Quito itinerary was very well conceived to give us maximum birding in a range of habitats and three beautiful lodges. Freddie and Daniel were outstanding guides with a vast knowledge of the areas we were in. We were entranced with the beauty of the landscape and and incredible birdlife, and logged approximately 50 species of hummingbirds, 30 species of tanagers, trogons, toucans, quetzals, motmots, torrent ducks, antpittas and so much more. we visited many roadside places for lunch and birding, many private reserves, and each were unique and special. the "home base", Hacienda la Jimenita, was just 15 minutes from the airport, with beautiful grounds, lovely rooms, great food and helpful staff. all the logistics, such as airport transfers for the galapagos, etc. were seamless. the range of options for the galapagos gave us the opportunity for an affordable trip with an Ecuadorian company and exceeded our expectations. did we mention the food? outstanding, everywhere we went! we would highly recommend Ecuador Birds Tours for your next birding trip, and be sure to book a trip to the Galapagos as long as you are there!
