Description: This programme includes volunteering and trips in Ecuador and you can choose this programme if you like adventure and helping at the same time.

Ecuador is a country of boundless diversity, friendly people and spectacular natural wonders. You can travel in a day from tropical lowlands where bananas grow, to the Andean Mountains where llamas graze beneath.

The Ecuador Volunteer and Trips program is a meaningful opportunity for volunteers who wish to explore the beauty of Ecuador, its culture, nature, and people while volunteering in Quito or the Mindo Cloud Forest. The Ecuador Volunteer and Trips programme's aims are to help orphaned children - giving them much needed hope and guidance and to conserve the beauty of the Mindo Cloud Forest.

As a volunteer you will be teaching health education/English/sanitation to poor kids/feeding hummingbirds/collecting seeds for exhibition. You also help children to develop their creative talents, working with them to draw pictures, play games and perform various creative activities. After a few days of working for the poor children or any volunteer project in the Cloud Forest, Eco-Volunteer UP will organize a four day tour of Ecuador where you will experience Ecuador's rich past, exciting future, wonderful culture and natural beauty by exploring the biggest indigenous market in Otavalo, a paradise of magical beauty in Banos, the bio-diversity of the protective forest at Pasochoa Volcano (a refuge of wild life), beautiful landscapes with dense Forest, flora and fauna in Mindo.

Highlights: Ecuador remains one of those mystical and mysterious places that are very difficult to find in the developed world. Therefore Ecuador is the perfect destination for people who love nature and adventure and its natural beauty cannot be compared. The hospitable people and marvelous history turn this place into the perfect spot to spend your time volunteering. If you are planning to explore the real cultural and natural beauty of Ecuador, why not start your adventure by joining one of our voluntary positions, Free Spanish lessons, village hiking expeditions, or sightseeing of some of the cultural wonders of Ecuador. Eco-Volunteer UP offers you unique opportunities to explore the great land of Ecuador while working for children and people in teaching, orphanage projects, health, forest placements with its flora, fauna and other community development projects.
