These Air Canada Vacations Ecuador tours from Toronto offer three fully guided itineraries that take you deep into one of South America's most geographically and culturally rich countries, with flights, transfers, accommodation, daily breakfast, and an English-speaking local guide all included from $3,039 CAD per person. Departures are December 2026, and availability on guided tour packages like these is capacity-controlled — so if Ecuador has been on your list, this is the moment to get serious about it.
Why Ecuador Stands Out
Ecuador is one of those rare destinations that fits an entire continent's worth of diversity into a relatively compact geography. In a single trip you can stand at the equator, hike the flanks of a snow-capped volcano, walk ancient Inca ruins, explore Amazonian jungle lodges, and wander the colonial streets of a UNESCO World Heritage city — often within days of each other.
The Avenue of the Volcanoes — a dramatic corridor of the Andes lined with some of the world's highest peaks, including Cotopaxi and Chimborazo, both accessible on these itineraries
Quito — one of Latin America's best-preserved colonial capitals, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the gateway to everything on offer
Baños de Agua Santa — a lively adventure hub perched at the edge of the Amazon basin, with waterfalls, thermal baths, and some of the most scenic cycling routes in South America
Cuenca — Ecuador's third city and arguably its most beautiful, with a relaxed pace, incredible artisan markets, and colonial architecture that rivals anywhere on the continent
Amazon access — the Discover the Colours of Ecuador itinerary ventures into Misahuallí and the Amazon basin, a genuinely rare addition to a mainstream guided tour package
Small-scale tourism — Ecuador hasn't been overrun, which means authentic experiences and genuine local interaction at every stop

Why Book Through Boarding Pass Travel
A guided tour in a destination like Ecuador involves a lot of moving parts — and having a travel advisor in your corner before, during, and after the trip makes a real difference.
Match the right itinerary to your travel style. Seven nights focused on the Andean highlands is a very different trip from ten nights crossing the country from Quito to Loja, or eight nights that dip into the Amazon. Knowing which one fits your pace, your interests, and your fitness level before you commit is exactly what an advisor conversation is for.
Guided tours have details that matter. Shared transfers, early check-in policies, the domestic flight leg on The Andean Routes, meal plan coverage — these are the kinds of specifics that surprise travellers who didn't know to ask. Working through them in advance means no surprises at the destination.
An advocate if anything changes. December departures involve a lot of variables — weather, connection times, holiday travel volumes. If something disrupts your journey, you'll have someone who knows your file and can act on your behalf immediately.
Access to the full picture. Aeroplan point eligibility, upgrade options, travel insurance that covers guided tour itineraries specifically — a Boarding Pass Travel advisor can make sure every part of your trip is properly protected and optimized.
