Vous commencerez cette aventure de 14 jours/13 nuits depuis notre bureau à Quito, en Équateur. En 1978, Quito est devenu le premier endroit de la planète à être désigné comme site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO pour avoir le centre historique le mieux préservé de toute l'Amérique latine. Quito se trouve sur le plateau de l'Altiplano (le deuxième plus haut du monde) dans les Andes, à 2 900 mètres. Nous vous suggérons d'arriver un jour ou deux en avance pour découvrir notre magnifique capitale et vous acclimater à la haute altitude avant de commencer le circuit.
Au cours de la première matinée de l'excursion, vous serez équipé de la moto de votre choix et vous recevrez une orientation complète répondant à toutes les questions concernant les coutumes locales, le code de la route, les signaux de conduite, la courtoisie des conducteurs équatoriens, etc. Le trajet du premier jour comprend un échantillon des différents types de routes que vous emprunterez. Nous vous montrerons comment utiliser votre appareil GPS préprogrammé avec des itinéraires quotidiens et vous recevrez un "Carnet de route" avec des détails et des points d'intérêt pour chaque jour. Nous vous fournirons une "trousse d'urgence" contenant un téléphone cellulaire prépayé, une pochette de premiers soins, des outils et d'autres articles pour assurer le bon déroulement de votre séjour. Vous aurez l'occasion de vous familiariser en toute sécurité avec l'asphalte, le gravier sec, les pavés et les petites routes de ferme.
Inti-ñan signifie "chemin du soleil" en langue quechua, et le musée Inti-ñan est situé directement sur l'équateur. Les peuples indigènes vénèrent ce site depuis des milliers d'années. Vous apprendrez comment les peuples anciens ont compris qu'il s'agissait du centre du monde des siècles avant l'avènement de la géographie moderne ou des appareils GPS. Sur la "ligne rouge" marquant l'équateur, vous ferez l'expérience de la gravité, notamment en observant comment l'eau s'écoule dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre ou dans le sens inverse, selon le côté de l'équateur où vous vous trouvez. Vous aurez également l'occasion de voir comment vivent les populations indigènes de l'Équateur en visitant des maquettes de leurs maisons. Ces maquettes vous permettront de mieux comprendre les cultures et les modes de vie que vous rencontrerez en réalité lors de votre passage dans les différentes régions.
En quittant le musée Inti-ñan, vous êtes maintenant officiellement en dehors de la région métropolitaine de Quito et vous avez commencé à rouler dans l'hémisphère nord. Votre deuxième arrêt est pour admirer la magnifique réserve géobotanique du cratère Pululahua, un cratère formé par une éruption volcanique il y a 2 500 ans. De là, vous vous dirigerez vers les pentes occidentales des Andes, pleines de forêts denses et vertes et de montagnes escarpées.
Vous tournerez sur un chemin de terre qui vous mènera jusqu'à la petite ville de Nono. C'est ici que vous commencerez votre trajet dans la réserve biologique de Nono. Ce refuge est connu pour être l'un des endroits les plus riches en biodiversité du monde. Il abrite le petit ours à lunettes des Andes et des milliers d'espèces d'oiseaux et de grenouilles colorées.
Arrêtez-vous au Bellavista Bird Lodge, mondialement connu, coupez ton moteur et restez assis en silence pendant quelques minutes afin de voir des centaines d'oiseaux colorés vous entourer et vous offrir un spectacle.
De là, vous descendrez dans le microclimat de la ville de Mindo - une ville funky de la forêt de nuages avec de nombreux fournisseurs d'activités d'aventure disponibles. Vous pourrez vous arrêter pour visiter un chocolatier organique et voir comment le cacao brut est cultivé et transformé en chocolat gourmet de première qualité. Ensuite, vous vous enfoncerez encore plus profondément dans la forêt de nuages et vous vous installerez dans une cabine de luxe privée au Terrazas de Dana Boutique Lodge.

About Our Offroad Tours
What to Expect
This 14-day self-guided adventure will start in our offices located in the Carolina neighborhood of Quito. Prior to your departure, we will provide you with a detailed and thoughtful presentation on Ecuadorian rules of the road, customs, and courtesies. We will instruct you on how to operate your pre-programmed GPS navigation unit. We will hand you a packet that includes your prepaid hotel vouchers and daily map sheets. The roadbook will provide you with points of interest, descriptions of local highlights, and "hidden gems" that aren't common knowledge. You can use this information to tailor your days - including as much or as little as you like. The route will be reviewed with you in detail to provide you with additional useful information about the timing, suggestions for lunch stops, and where to get gas along the way.
On the morning of your departure, you will be outfitted with the off-road-capable motorcycle (or 4x4) of your choice. The vehicle is fitted with a waterproof luggage system, a first aid kit, a tankbag (if you want one), spare innertubes (or tire repair kit), and a set of tools. Besides, you will have a prepaid cell phone to call us for support at any time during your trip. We will carefully review the bike with you using our multi-point checklist to be sure that everything is in perfect working order before your departure. We will be sure that you know what to do in case of an emergency or breakdown.
You may use our lockers and storage area to store your luggage and belongings that you will not take with you on the ride.
The route you will follow over the next fourteen days is based on several years' of experience and riding these routes many times on our guided tours. The route is not highly technical. It is a dual-sport tour, meaning there is a mix of paved backroads and dirt natural, unimproved dirt roads without gravel. The tour is mostly on unpaved roads and avoids the pavement as much as possible, taking you to places seldom visited by outsiders. There are several stops available, which are marked on the GPS unit and the daily route sheets. You should be aware that you will be traveling in areas where access to medical care may be several hours away.
You will have many opportunities for amazing photos and stops in remote villages where visitors are very rare. Locals are friendly, and the areas visited are very safe, with very low crime rates.
During your ride, Ecuador Freedom staff will monitor your daily progress using an onboard GPS satellite tracking system. We can assist you by telephone if you need to change your route, need roadside assistance, or help in any way.
Upon returning, you will have access to our honor bar, jacuzzi, hot shower, and staff that can assist you with your next destination.
Weather and Temperatures
Weather and temperature ranges in Ecuador are generally the same year-round. You can expect the chance of passing showers in the highlands but rarely a full day of rain. Chances for a full day of rain are more likely on the western slopes of the Andes in March, April, and early May. This ride will be in elevations from sea level (where temperatures can be around 80-90 degrees Fahrenheit) to about 13,500 feet (where temperatures can be in the 30's Fahrenheit). Dressing in layers is recommended. Please see this article for more information about the weather in Ecuador.
Accommodations
Throughout the tour, you will stay in carefully selected, high-end accommodations with many amenities and in upgraded, superior rooms or suites. See this page for details, photos, and links to the hotel accommodations provided. Breakfast is included for each overnight stay and dinners are included when staying in an area without other dining options. Ecuador Freedom has the right to substitute accommodations of equal quality due to availability and will notify you of these changes.
Packing List and Preparation
Ecuador Freedom will provide you with detailed information to prepare for the ride, including a packing list. You should know how to make general motorcycle repairs and maintenance and to be able to change an innertube (click for a video tutorial). Before you travel, we recommend that you familiarize yourself in advance with these recommended guidebooks and maps.

To protect yourself from this loss of your deposit, it is up to you to secure travel insurance that covers cancellations due to health problems, civil unrest, acts of God, family tragedies, any issues, cancellations or delays with flight departures, etc.
Medical and security emergencies happen; when they do, we rely on Global Rescue, the world’s leading membership organization providing integrated medical, security, travel risk, and crisis response services to travelers worldwide. Memberships start at $129
