Travelers to Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands Enjoy Unbeatable Value on the Back of the Latest Economic Downturn
Savvy travellers are taking advantage of extraordinary deals on vacation packages that combine a yacht-based wildlife safari in the Galapagos islands with a range of unique experiences on the Ecuadorian mainland.Quito, Ecuador, August 25, 2011 -- The soft economy and the weakened US dollar have proven to be a boon for travellers to Ecuador and the Galapagos islands. The economic climate has forced discounting upon a very competitive tourism market and the fact that Ecuador’s currency is the US dollar means that the buying power of US travellers has been preserved here while falling dramatically for them in other destinations. Meanwhile travellers earning Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, British pounds, and Euros are enjoying the double benefit of lower prices and a strengthened currency against the US dollar.
It’s no wonder then that many travellers seem to have recognised that now is the best time in years to take that long-planned vacation to Ecuador and the Galapagos islands.
"We've noted a recent surge in interest in our special packages that combine a wildlife experience in the Galapagos islands with one of a range of unique themed extensions on mainland Ecuador”, said Maite Moreno, General Experience Manager for Quito-based Yacu Amu Experiences. “Our clients expect top quality services, hassle-free travel, the flexibility to choose options according to their particular interests and excellent value for money. And our special packages offer all that and more”.
The 10 day / 9 night packages include a 5 day / 4 night wildlife safari in the Galapagos islands cruising on board a 16 passenger yacht or catamaran, a 3 day / 3 night Insider’s Ecuador themed extension - choosing from Flavours of Ecuador, Andean Cultures, Natural Treasures, and Colonial Treasures - and a Quito VIP package that includes 2 nights boutique hotel accommodation in Quito and 4 transfers for 2 international and 2 Galapagos flights. The package also includes return flights to the Galapagos islands from Quito.
