A kid-friendly vacation to Ecuador offers a combination of jungle, mountains, colorful cities, the Galápagos Islands and colonial history — all in one place. That’s why many seasoned travelers, especially those with children, consider it one of the best destinations in the world and well worth a spot on your bucket list. Families can do everything from ziplining in the Amazon to volunteering in local community centers. The choices in accommodations are just as diverse as the country itself. Cruise around the Galápagos on a kid-friendly ship, book a luxury hotel in Quito and maybe even try out a monastery stay.

"We have only good things to say about our entire trip and the planning process. You are a dream to work with! I especially appreciated how you narrowed down my options for each decision, so I wouldn't be overwhelmed. I haven't worked with a travel agent before, but you really surpassed my expectations. We will call you first the next time we travel!"

–Lange Family Trip

"Katie went above & beyond for our family. We had a spectacular trip. I appreciate how Katie understood our needs as a family and gave me realistic feedback. The places where we stayed were exactly what I was looking for. I valued Katie’s patience with me as I was building my trip and deciding what exactly we were looking for as a family. She was available for input whenever needed and I would definitely use her and Ciao Bambino again."
