Can you tell me is ecuador a safe country to travel to? |
Travel Info i would like to go on holidays there Travel Tips I'm Ecuadorian, and just like latgal73 said, our country is no more dangerous than any other in Latin America. I've gone back 3 times this year, and 4 time all together in a year from today. I have to say that I feel safer and safer every time I go, even being on my own and taking myself from one place to another. Do visit the main economic capital, Guayaquil (my city). Our current mayor has done great things to keep various parts of our city clean and reconstructed. While you're there visit Malecon 2000, Barrio Las Pe帽as, Malecon 1900, our world-class museums. Other destinations that are great as well are: Quito (our capital) where there are MANY sites to see, such as: Mital del Mundo (the middle of the world, lat. 0'0"), the Teleferiqo, el Panecillo, palacio del Carondelet (this is like the white house for us), and the various gorgeous churches throughout the city. I was also fortunate to visit Galapagos, now this is THE place to be. If I could choose to live the rest of my life in one place, this is it!; it a true paradise, I will let you do the research on your own... I guarantee that you will fall in love with this place. Also visit Cuenca, the ruins of Ingapirca, Salinas, Ballenita (if you go in July, you will see the whales really really close). Hope it helped. Others all depends on which part of ecuador you go to. some places are safe, and some places, slums, ghetos, ect., are obviously not. again, i rely on my answer-all: go google it. I was there last year and had a great time. The bus travel was slow being a mountainous country, but we never felt like we were in a compromising situation. Have a great time but remember any time you travel you should take the normal, common sense approach to most situations. spent a month there last year Hey I live in Ecuador (Guayaquil, coast area) and I can tell you this country is not more dangerous to visit than any other country in the world. And the good thing is that you can visit the mountains in the morning and be surfing in the afternoon. Our currency is the American dollar so you don't have to worry about that. Accomodation, transport and specially food are very cheap. We are peaceful but of course, you have to apply common sense to every situation you are in. for more information, refer to this page: http://www.visitaguayaquil.com It is safe. However you should take the the basic safety precautions. http://www.vivecuador.com/html2/eng/safe... |
