Destination Update
Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands

2026 is your moment to rediscover Ecuador, starting where every great route should: Hotel Otavalo, known for its sense of place and refined hospitality. Just 1 hour and 15 minutes from Quito’s airport, it’s the indispensable first stop to the only hotel with a MICHELIN Key in northern Ecuador. With more time, you could travel south to Cuenca and stay at Cruz del Vado, featured in the MICHELIN Guide, reinforcing Ecuador’s growing credibility on the world stage. These distinctions aren’t trophies; they signal consistency, care, and experiences that endure.
