Reina Isabel, superb value as a base from which to explore.
Review of Hotel Reina Isabel, Quito by jayney49

Advantages: basic, cheap, clean, friendly staff, super breakfasts.
Disadvantages: 45 minute walk to city centre, noisy roadworks outside at the time of visit.

This hotel was the cheapest offered with our tour package to Quito and Galapagos. We were not expecting luxury, and although the hotel is basic as a base to explore the city, it more than came up to our expectations. The staff on reception were friendly a ... Read review

While it may sound a bit of a trek, getting to the centre of the Earth is not all that difficult, at least not when Quito is you starting point. The Ecuadorian capital is pretty near the equator line, and as such, a visit is high on many people's lists wh ... Read review

What The Lake Left Behind
Review of Tiwanaku (Tiahuanaco), Tiahuanaco by Puggers

Advantages: Interesting site, well-laid out museums, some impressive remains.
Disadvantages: Much of the site is yet to be recovered or (possibly crudely) rebuilt.

When it comes to ruins, perhaps I peaked too early. Visiting Peru four years before Bolivia, and Mexico three, I've been fortunate enough to see some of the most celebrated piles of stone Latin America has to offer. After the likes of Chichen Itza, Palenq ... Read review

Salty and Superlative
Review of General: Bolivia by Puggers

Advantages: A wealth of contrasting wonders and lesser-seen sights relatively untainted by tourism.
Disadvantages: Extremes of altitude and temperature, rustic transport links.

The Acquired Taste of Bolivia The old woman, with only her face visible above the pile of knitting, flashed a sparsely-toothed grin of approval, and a thumbs-up appeared from amongst the woollen socks. She had, though, done this for each item I ... Read review

Wow! Lx by hiker
I remember our trip to here very well. Our pilot thought he was flying in WW2 with some of his manouvers for us to see the falls from the air, on the way back we had to fly through a storm, the pilot strapped himself in with about 50 seat belts and I looked at our guide and he was sitting their praying making the sign of the cross, bloody frightening indeed! P.S. did the fish nibble your toes when you went swimming? by paulpry118
