Where to walk in Ecuador

• Cuenca (2 tours): Four rivers cutting through the centre, blue-domed cathedrals over red-tile roofs, Andean cedar in every Panama-hat workshop, 2,560 metres of altitude in every breath. The Ecuadorian city Spain built over an Inca city built over a Cañari one.
• Ibarra (2 tours): Whitewashed walls under high Andean sun, ice-cream carts on every corner, helados de paila and arrope de mora in every plaza, Imbabura volcano framing the skyline. The Ecuadorian city rebuilt entirely in white after the 1868 earthquake.
• Quito (2 tours): Colonial churches stacked on Inca foundations, the Pichincha volcano on the western horizon, Andean breath at 2,850 metres, Quechua weaving through Spanish in the markets. A colonial capital balanced on the equator, on the slopes of an active volcano.
