Travelling Around Ecuador in Your Car Rental
- Drive Ecuador's Spondylus Route hugging shimmering Pacific coast stretching 530 miles from the Esmeraldas in the north to nudge the Peruvian border. Explore the archaeology of Educador's pre-Columbian cultures, the shrimping village of Pedernales and chilled beach resorts. The road is an official tourist route so it's well maintained.
- Slide straight from the seat of your cushioned rental car into an Andean adventure. Wind your way between the lush jutting Andes and stumble upon tucked-away villages and breath-taking vistas.
- Quito Old Town is the capital of Ecuador and teeming with bedecked market stalls and steamy bars. Pose in front of 17th century facades and mingle with the locals in the heart of the Old Town, where handsome churches run into sun-kissed plazas.
