Ecuador has been open to international tourism since November 2020, after 6 long months, due to the pandemic, our company has been working since July 2020 with local national tourists trying to adapt to the new reality post covid-19
Some local attractions have seized to exist such as the Nariz del Diablo Train which, has officially been closed down for good, the famous route in Ecuador, and what was known as the most difficult train in the world has ceased to exist, as well as TAME airlines which had the most affordable flights to Galapagos and the Amazon rainforest.
The global crisis of Covid -19 and the several restrictions on travel made the company finally collapse financially, making it unsustainable to maintain.
Most of the boutique hotels and remodeled places around the colonial town of Quito are also struggling since the elder tourism is simply not traveling at all.

Ecuador encountered a huge opportunity as it is the only country in the region opened for mountaineering, our mountain peaks have been under high demand, from local and international climbers.
As of March 2021 in order to Ecuador Travel Post Covid19 – 2021, things have gotten a lot easier for international tourists to arrive, as Ecuador is now only asking for any of the following:
