I was watching the video and I miss my beautiful country Ecuador, thanks for visiting my country and showing to the world, greetings from New York City.

[@JordanandEmily]

We LOVED it in Ecuador - no need to thank us! ☺️

[@azeezorelope2005]

I need your assistance on how to get Ecuador tourism visa because we don't have Ecuador Embassy in my country even around my country

[@VeganV5912]

I don’t hurt animals. I’m better than that. I’ve grown up. 10 years vegan. 10 years of not hurting others. Simple really ✅🤷🏼‍♂️😎👍. KZbin delicious vegan food. You don’t want to be in their position…..

Espero que les haya gustado mi país Ecuador. Para la próxima les espera las islas galápagos! :D

[@JordanandEmily]

We loved it!! Can’t wait to come back 🐢

Galapagos !!! 👍👍😍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞

[@juliannedean537]

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 ❤️

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks mum! love you miss you ❤️

[@spark_6710]

How sweet !! 💕👍

Birds at the Cuenca ruins site are rehab birds, there to heal before released.

[@JordanandEmily]

So good!

[@hayleyrichardson9203]

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.

[@JordanandEmily]

Thats so great to hear! 😀 we are having a lot of fun doing the guides too so they'll probably keep coming out! Haha

[@paolosantiago3163]

Ecuador 🇪🇨🇪🇨 seems somehow interesting country to try visit in. ❤❤

[@JordanandEmily]

It really is! 😄

Thank you so much - glad it was helpful!

[@ynelypelez5979]

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

[@JordanandEmily]

Thank you so much - we are glad you enjoyed the video! ❤️

[@ParisianThinker]

A big Thank you to both of you for this incredible video! I never planned on visiting Ecuador, but now I am. You are welcomed here in France if you ever come. Be happy to show you around. 😀

[@JordanandEmily]

This makes us so happy!

[@carlospulley8723]

Loved 🥰 your videos!!! So helpful but we would love to see you guys in the Galápagos Islands!!! There is so much we had heard about these Fantastic Islands!!! Hope to see you there soon 🔜 ❤

[@JordanandEmily]

One day! We truly truly hope so! 😄

[@spark_6710]

Oh - yes !! This is the 2nd comment on that island !! I've been wanting to visit there all of my life since I saw sea iguanas spitting salt out of their mouths on tv !! Lol. For decades now !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞

[@jerrygarcia4390]

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]

Oohh we just missed that cool accommodation! We've also had multiple people recommend it so it must be great!

[@alexigonzale2016]

i love Ecuador, welcome......

[@JordanandEmily]

Thank you! 😊

[@TeresaStallings]

Loved your video. The intag valley should be on your itinerary for next time you visit. 😊

this is awesome to hear! thanks for watching!

Smart ideas

[@JordanandEmily]

Thank you!

[@stéphanieauclair900]

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]

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

Glad you like my country

[@JordanandEmily]

It's gorgeous! 😊

[@Captainsmollett1]

Hi

[@carlabanks4023]

Great video. I spent September in Ecuador and visited a lot of places you mentioned. Sadly I didn't get to go to the Amazon so I'll have to go back.

[@JordanandEmily]

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

[@MuradKhan-t4y]

Good

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks! Thanks

[@chadabey9623]

great vid... I can not wait to go back to the old country some day..

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks so much 😊

[@darrinbrown6780]

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

[@laicheeeeee]

Hi guys! If you guys had only 3 days in quito, what would you recommend? Thx very much

[@JordanandEmily]

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!

[@azeezorelope2005]

Kindly help me out how can I have Ecuador tourism visa

[@JordanandEmily]

You'll have to try Google!

[@CharlesNowlin-d5t]

As a tourist, you have 90 days to stay in Ecuador without needing a visa. If you stay longer you'll need another type of visa, with FBI background checks State Police reports and Health Insurance from Ecuador

[@robbiethomson7258]

Great video, got me very excited for my trip! I was wondering if all the prices shown are in USD or AUD and if they are per person or for both? thanks

[@JordanandEmily]

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

[@karendelaney3128]

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]

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!

[@daniparedes6116]

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

[@OriginaLDizuaL]

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]

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!

[@OriginaLDizuaL]

Thanks for clarifying, also love your three travel guides and would love to see budget videos like your Columbia episode!

[@azeezorelope2005]

Sir how can I get Ecuador tourism visa?

[@JordanandEmily]

depends on your country of orgigin!

[@azeezorelope2005]

How can I get Ecuador tourism visa from my country since there's no Ecuador Embassy in my country

[@JordanandEmily]

You might be able to getpne through the post! Depends on your country!

Nope! Google translate will do that for you!

[@maxix2440]

When did you go to Ecuador? Do you think it is less safe now because of the drug trafficking?

[@JordanandEmily]

We were there July and August! We didn't feel unsafe at all and honestly didn't see any drugs or dodgy looking people haha

[@celestecarrera2963]

Keep your bags with you at all times otherwise they will snatch it, it happened to a friend from the US.

[@LATINGRENOUILLE]

@JordanandEmily Really? Six weeks in Ecuador and you saw only that? In such a tiny country? Ýou missed Mitad del Mundo (the equator), didn't go to the baths in Baños de Ambato? I can understand all tge days in the rain amazonic forrest, but 21 days in Quito 🙄 yo crossed from Colombia to Ecuador and didn't stop at Tulcán, to see one of the most unique cemeteries in the world? You didn't go down to Loja, another nice colonial style city, which is also becaming another hub for expats. You missed so many things, including the coast. Next yime you have to plan your trip guys. By the way, Ambato and Riobamba are cities.

[@JordanandEmily]

good excuse to go back! don't want to just go there once and never come back ;)

We went to Japan, no one speaks English, even in hotels and restaurants
