- MRMarcio· January 16th, 2020It was a very interesting trip visiting diverse and vibrant places. Otavalo with its colorful market and the Hotel Hacienda Pinsaqui, very beautiful and historical place. Papallacta and the hot spring pools provided us with relaxing moments in a hypnotic setting. Two nights in Tena, in the Amazon rainforest, unique experience. The visit to Baños, perhaps the most exciting place with many radical opportunities and the unforgettable "Caldrón del Diablo" waterfalls. Finally, as Ecuador is the land of volcanoes (84), we could not fail to visit Cotopaxi National Park. Good hotels, reasonable transportation (with great driver) and exceptional guide (CEO), Maria.Show moreTrip date: December 2019
