In the small town of Cotacachi—Ecuador’s center of leatherworks—enjoy strolling through the town’s narrow streets where quaint shops abound.

Days 4 - 7 - The Galapagos Islands

The M/V Galápagos Explorer II awaits you for a five-day cruise of the living laboratory where Charles Darwin studied and collected samples of the flora and fauna.
