Arrival And Departure Information

You will need to fly to Ecuador's international airport ‘Mariscal Sucre’, in the country’s capital city of Quito. Our expedition staff are available to meet you at the airport and transfer you to a hostel in the city if your arrival is scheduled for the afternoon or evening prior to the expedition start date. Please make sure you arrive before the start date of the expedition or ensure that you are at the meeting point by 9am on the first day at the very latest. Do not rely on international flights arriving on the morning of the start date of the expedition, you will risk missing the start of the expedition.
