Has anyone been to Ecuador recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there 6 months ago and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Trying to decide between this and Germany.
Cheers
Ecuador — overrated or just right?

Quick question — how was the ATM situation?

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.
