What does your Cultural Adventure Vacation include?

  • Beautiful accommodations: New construction using organic materials typifies the high quality accomodations where you will stay. All rooms are uniquely decorated and have been designed for your comfort and relaxation, and include a private bathroom.
  • Great food: All guests receive a healthy organic breakfast as a part of their stay (including home-made fruit juice, yogurt and fresh fruit, eggs, etc.). Guests can include lunch and/or dinner as part of their custom itineraries.  We also accommodate vegetarianism and other dietary restrictions. We recommend that guests take advantage of opportunities to sample from the best local restaurants and even street vendors if they choose.
  • Guided trips: Solidarity Travels partners with a few select tour operators that are locally owned and run, to offers guests access to the most exciting and interesting local points of interest. These trips can either be private or in a small group depending on the circumstances and your preference.
  • Private exploration: There are many locations in our region worth seeing that can be visited alone. We can recommend those to you based on your interest, as well as assist with access to transportation.
  • Spanish instruction: Guests staying with us have the opportunity to schedule one-on-one Spanish instruction with a native speaker as part of their itinerary. Regardless of whether you are beginner or more advanced, our instructors will provide you with the individual attention needed to help raise your proficiency.
  • Fun, interactive learning: Our instructors and guides are from the local community and make sure that your time with them is engaging and educational.
  • Cultural Exchange: We will provide you with continuous opportunities to meet and learn from people in the local community. We use workshops and other events to provide opprtunities for interaction.
  • Transportation for all facilitated trips: Solidarity Travels will also organize your pick up and drop off at the Guayaquil airport. Guests who create a custom itinerary may choose to rent a car for the trip from Guayaquil. For those clients, we can recommend rental agencies that have our confidence.

Choose your season

December through May is the summer here on the Ruta del Sol. 90% of the days include perfect, sunny beach weather. However, the nights are mostly cool and comfortable. During this time of the year, we can offer a great range of activities related to the various, beautiful beaches in the area.

The other part of the year (June through November) is the cool season here. Temperatures are typically between 60’s and low 70’s, and it is generally more cloudy.

If you are a beach person, definitely come during the summer (Temporada). However, if you don’t want too much sun and heat and are a nature - lover you can fill your days with wonderful activities during the cool season just as easily as you can during Temporada. In fact, it’s the best time for certain activities like whale watching. Bird watching, visiting the tropical forest and other great activities are all available, if not at their peak, during this time of year.

Whenever you decide to come, we will ensure you see the best of what’s available to you.
