Ecuador Guide
Getting Around
Ecuador's inexpensive and generally reliable buses are the country's most useful and preferred form of public transport, trundling along just about everywhere there's a road. By contrast, the train network covers only a small fraction of the country.
The road network is limited by North American and European standards, but expanding and improving all the time thanks to recent investments in the country's infrastructure, supported by the introduction of road tolls. Less than twenty percent of the highways, however, are paved so expect a bumpy ride if you're going on any but the most important routes..
