M/S Sulidae - This is one of the author of Frommer's guidebook top choices among the tourist-and economy-class options.
With our motor sail boat “Sulidae” we offer cruises including land excursions to the different islands. You have the opportunity to sail for 8 days. The tours begins on Thursday. Check this up since they also say that it starts on other days!
The travel cost below was estimated for November in 2012.
It is not possible to keep all costs up to date. The source and date are therefore specified in parentheses for each cost.
( Internet YYYY-MM-DD / Guidebook name & publish date / Travel YYYY-MM-DD )
Be aware of the fact that real prices can be almost twice as much as those specified in guide books.
A return ticket from Gothenburg to Quito cost from 10.098 SEK but then with different air companies. It is probably better to use only KLM.
KLM: Gothenburg 06:20 => Quito 22:50
KLM: Quito 09:25 => Gothenburg 22:35
The total price is 10.661 SEK. ( Price from Reseguiden 2012-01-05 )
The flights to Quito takes 22 hours and 30 minutes. On your way back you fly through Lima and the fly time is 31 hours and 10 minutes. A really good alternative is therefore to combine your visit to Ecuador with a visit to Peru or at least a visit to Lima.
