    I'm definitely far more likely to travel to these places you do guides for because it is just so much easier. I never would've thought about Ecuador before but there's so much to see.

    This is such a good idea. A lot of very useful hints and tips, I even learnt a lot. If we ever get to go to the Amazon, we would definitely stay where you stayed, I love the idea that it’s community run. Well done. Miss you both, love you, mum.xx ❤️

    Nice to see my family's native country. I was born in Spain but my whole family is from Ecuador and I am proud that they not only appreciate our beautiful landscapes but also our delicious food. It brings back memories of when I visited my family or when I lived in Quito for 2 years. Thank you for continuing to provide the best of each country in the world. Greetings from an Ecuadorian born in Spain, a hug 🤗🇪🇦🇪🇨. TO ENJOY THE MOST OF MY COUNTRY.
    Lindo de ver el país natal de mi familia. Nací en España pero toda mi familia es de Ecuador y me llena de orgullo de que no solo aprecien nuestros hermosos paisajes sino también nuestra deliciosa comida. Me trae recuerdos de cuando visitaba a mi familia o cuando vivía en Quito durante 2 años. Gracias por seguir aportando lo mejor de cada país del mundo . Saludos de una Ecuatoriana nacida en España un abrazo 🤗🇪🇦🇪🇨 . A DISFRUTAR LO MÁXIMO DE MI PAIS

    I just want to say, you guys are the best travel duo that have been to Ecuador, honestly. I really recommend that you guys go to Guayaquil, it’s such a pretty place especially and (if you want to treat yourselfs) you should stay at the Wyndham (the one at the edge of the water) it’s very worth it. Plus you get really mind blowing deals sometimes. It will give you a different perspective of what people say is Guayaquil 😂. It’s also located near the boardwalk which is pretty nice and fancy. I also recommend going to Samborondon, a couple minutes away from Guayaquil. Samborondon gives you a feeling of high end Arizona and Hawaii. A group of us went just for the day, we took photos, then went back to Guayaquil, which seemed a little more affordable. Other places are San Lorenzo, stunning beach and scenery. Manta is also recommended, but that place had lots of tuna factories outside of the town. Smelled fishy. Further more, Salinas, looks like Miami Beach, recommend for some fun party times, also family friendly.❤

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks so much for this! We are a bit dissapointed we missed Guayaquil! GREAT excuse to go back though!

    I just returned to the US after a 30 day trip to Ecuador. I hit all the spots that you mentioned except for the Amazon. I highly recommend the Secret Garden Hostel-Cotopaxi. It is a gorgeous property. Several of the Europeans said that the Amazon was their absolute favorite part of their trip to Ecuador; spectacular in their words.

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sounds like the PERFECT reason to go back - we missed the Galapagos so that's our reason to one day return ☺️

    Great series of videos on your travels in Ecuador! We are planning a 6 week trip starting the middle of Jan. 2024 and plan on visiting many of areas that you went to. We are planning on spending the first 5 nights and last 4 nights in Quito. In this video you mentioned you found a good place to stay in Quito. Would it be OK to ask the name of the place? Happy travels... .

    • @JordanandEmily

      You really can't go wrong with airbnbs in Quito! Our favourite ended up being this one air.tl/fW8ZRvnt (not sure if the link will work on youtube) but it had a great hot shower and close to the main area

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We generally use AUD but try to add USD through the vlogs too! The price is generally for both servings but I can't guarantee we stick to that 🤔 haha

    Hi guys, love your videos. Did you prefer Ecuador or Columbia? ( if you exclude the Amazon). Have a few weeks next January and need to pick one.

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's super hard to pick! They are both great, but given the recent political and gang issues in Ecuador I'd probably choose Colombia!

      Problemas de seguridad no son exclusivos de Ecuador . Están en todaas partes, solo que cuando los gobiernos los tocan salen con represalias, mientras están “pasivos”. Además el marketing que nos hacen solo a nosotros es súper sesgado y dirigido en la región. Vivo en Ecuador y aunque si hay zonas más peligrosas, no es la realidad de todo el país. Nos ponen alerta roja desestabilizando más nuestra economía. Muchos turistas extranjeros que están acá solo porque que no pudieron cancelar sus viajes dicen” no es como nos lo pintaron” y están disfrutando. Si voy a la Argentina, Colombia, Perú, Estados Unidos, Italia, España, etc obvio no me voy a meter en zonas peligrosas, lo mismo en Ecuador

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      3 days is quite a bit!
      Definitely check out the cable car to get a view of the city. Walk the streets including going uo the cathedral and it would be cool to do a half day at the centre of the earth place too!

  • @OriginaLDizuaL
    @OriginaLDizuaL 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    when you guys say dont put your bags up, do you mean on the roof of minivans or on the shelf above your seats in coaches?

    • @JordanandEmily
      @JordanandEmily  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Shelves above the seats! Cannot confirm about the roof of the minibusses but I'd do everything I can to have my bad with me!
