Hi all !
For my first message on this forum I would like few informations about Ecuador.
With three belgians friends I will visit this country during three weeks in january-february 2007. This a LOW-COST trip !
Our itinery is almost made but We have a few interrogations !
amazonian low-land : we want to go at the Yuturi lodge. Is it the cheapest lodge ? Are de guide OK ? (do they speak spanish or english, Do they know all the interesting birds, ...) Is there others cheap-lodge in these area ?
Is the Loredo road Ok for a non 4-by-4 vehicle ? Where are the best spots on this road ?
We look also for a good spot near Quito. Any recommendations ?
In three weeks, we will done the next itinery :
Cotopaxi - Papallacta Pass - Guango Lodge - San Isidro lodge - Loredo road - Yuturi lodge - Yanococha - Mindo road (tandayapa - bellavista - antpitta's trail - mindo) - Pedro vicente Maldonado NP - Rio pallenque - Machahilla NP - Islas de la Plata - Salinas - Quito
