After visiting Ecuador Anthony P Postiglione says Ecuador may be small in size but it is anything but boring. Named for the Equator, which runs through the country, the small Andean nation packs quite the punch.
There is a reason that it served as inspiration for Darwin’s theory of evolution. And although it is primarily known for the Galapagos ISlands, the country is full of biodiversity, beautiful architecture, lush greenery, markets galore and volcanoes almost everywhere you look.
Ecuador is probably at the smaller side, however it nonetheless has a huge variety of landscapes and climates. Overall, the United States definitely has distinctive seasons, a moist season and a dry season. Crowds don’t always observe those seasons either.
January through May is the good and wettest part of the year, and you could expect larger crowds withinside the Galapagos in January because it coincides with faculty wreck and the sea situations are ideal.
June throughSeptember are the driest and warmest months of the year. Because of this, the traveler calls for raises, bringing the expenses up.
