Discovering Americas

About Us

At Discovering Americas, we create unique, authentic, transformative, and memorable travel experiences that connect your passengers with the local culture.

We contribute to the growth of tourism in Latin America, increasing the number of travelers to non-traditional destinations.

We develop Fair Trade practices with local communities and contribute in a direct and real way to their growth.

We work to reduce the carbon footprint on our trips. We motivate clients to compensate for it with contributions to the restoration and conservation of forests.

How Our  Adventure Started

We have been involved in the Hotel and Tourism Industry for more than two decades, we collaborated for some big hotel chains and local/regional incomings in Ecuador. We were colleagues, clients, suppliers but overall  we are friends. 

Friends sharing the same vision, we discussed about entrepreneurship, quality and authenticity and we realized that most travel companies are not the richness multiplicator that tourism is supposed to be. Most of companies just include light visits to local communities and leave just a little and in the majority of cases nothing at all. 

We then decided that our company be a real generator of welfare for the small providers and communities involved in tourism activities.  

We founded Discovering Americas with the purpose of making the dream of those who seek unique experiences in this diverse and colorful continent come true.

For this reason, we handle a responsible and conscious tourism model that allows conservation and retribution to the local communities that lend us their environments and share their ancestral knowledge.

We want to be a true generator of wealth and transformation for visitors and local communities.

Come and feel the marvelous experiences in our unique destinations!
