Ecuador is the country for which the adage "small is beautiful' was coined. On the size of Great Britain, Ecuador is nonetheless one of the most diverse countries in the world. Due to its position on the Equator, not only can you experience all four seasons in a day, but also four distintic geographical zones.

Galapagos Islands: Famed as the inspiration for the theory of evolution, and feted on a thousand natural history television programs, the Galapagos islands, 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador in the Pacific Ocean, are everything they are made out to be. BFirst Travel invites you to board one of our cruises for a voyage of discovery.

"The animals and birds don't fear Man at all because they don't have predators on the islands. You can walk right up to them and they don't move. I've never felt so close to nature before." BFirst Travel client.
