Visited Ecuador for 10 days. Great experience. Scene is improved. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $118/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 8.5/10. Solid destination.

Good info. I'd add that going during the week is much better — less crowded, better prices.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try using a different site next time.
