With its startling biodiversity, sweeping highland terrain and boasting more species of Orchid than any other country on earth, it’s easy to forget that Ecuador is the smallest nation within the Andean States, and goes to show that size most certainly isn't everything. Ecuador’s greatest draw has to be its proximity to the captivating Galápagos Islands, where visitors leave humbled and in awe, having encountered species of animals and plants found nowhere else on the planet.
