Ecuador is a relatively safe country to travel to. Large parts of the country are geared towards tourism and can be described as safe. However, as in any country where you are not known, it is good to take some basic precautions.<\/p><p>Since the corona pandemic, many countries in Central and South America have experienced an increase in crime, including theft. We provide more explanation below. In addition, countries in the region are experiencing more drug-related violence between criminal gangs due to the shifting and intensifying demand for drugs in the world. Unfortunately, we are also seeing an increase in gang-related violence in Ecuador as a result. <strong>However, tourists are never the target in these conflicts.<\/strong><\/p><p>We would like to share a number of tips with you so that you can travel in Ecuador as worry-free as possible.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3f6c285 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"3f6c285\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f10ba5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8f10ba5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Basic safety tips<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-59ade02 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"59ade02\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e71a532 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e71a532\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Theft and pickpocketing<\/h3><p>In big cities (such as Quito, Cuenca and Guayaquil) we recommend being careful with valuables. It is wise not to flaunt too much expensive jewelry, cameras and telephones, for example. You can of course take this out to take a nice photo somewhere, if you put it away properly afterwards. A bit of the usual &#8216;common sense&#8217; that you need in any major city in the world.<\/p><p>A common method used by pickpockets is to discretely smear your clothing or bag with mayonnaise, among other things. Then this person kindly offers to help you clean it, often with napkins in hand. While cleaning you can get pickpocketed without noticing, or in the case of a bag, this person can run away with your bag.<\/p><p>There is a special tourist police presence in the center of Quito and Cuenca that patrols, can help tourists with directions and can recommend tourist spots. Some of them speak English.<\/p><p>We also recommend being extra alert in large crowds, such as in busy streets, during events and at markets.<\/p><h3>Withdrawing money<\/h3><p>We recommend withdrawing money from an ATM during the day. Be alert to the presence of people who may be watching you while you are taking out money. Only take the necessary money with you when you leave your hotel. If available, you can safely store valuables and money in a safe at your hotel.<\/p><h3>Drinks<\/h3><p>When going out, we recommend not accepting drinks from strangers, as they may contain drugs. It is also advisable not to leave your drink unattended.<\/p><h3>Flyers<\/h3><p>We recommend not accepting flyers from strangers, as they may contain drugs for the purpose of robbing the recipient. Although this is not a common method of thieves in Ecuador, it does occur in South America.<\/p><h3>Guayaquil<\/h3><p>Compared to other parts of the country, more (violent) robberies take place in the city of Guayaquil, which are not specifically aimed at tourists. We recommend visiting the tourist spots in the city center during daylight and avoiding the suburbs. Many international flights and also flights to Galapagos depart from Guayaquil airport, so there is a good chance that you will spend at least one night in Guayaquil towards the end of your tour. Of course you can choose to spend your free time in the city in a comfortable hotel. The climate of Guayaquil is ideal for a relaxing end to the holiday (at the pool).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b91f2e4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"b91f2e4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ba16462 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ba16462\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Transport<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b8e0f1e elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"b8e0f1e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25dcb0f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"25dcb0f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Taxis<\/h3>\n<p>In large cities, we recommend that you always take a taxi to\/from the hotel in the evening, for example if you are going out to eat or go out. During the day you can easily walk around the city centers. Official taxis have an orange license plate and &#8211; depending on the city or region &#8211; also have a local registration number (visible on the windshield and\/or side door). You can always ask your hotel or restaurant to call a registered taxi for you.<\/p>\n<h3>Travel by public bus<\/h3>\n<p>Traveling by public bus in Ecuador is relatively safe. However, you should always keep your valuables with you and keep an eye on them. The best place for this is on your lap. It is better not to place these in the overhead racks. If you prefer to place a backpack on the ground, stay alert to this.<\/p>\n<p>It happens that thieves \u2013 posing as bus staff \u2013 order you to put your belongings in the luggage racks, or offer to do this for you. They may also try to have you sit in a different place (further away from your belongings). Never respond to this.<\/p>\n<p>Large luggage is transported at the bottom of the bus. Depending on the bus company and\/or the distance you travel by bus, you will sometimes receive a ticket for this, which you must show upon arrival at your destination in order to receive your luggage.<\/p>\n<p>On a number of routes around Guayaquil it is advisable to choose private transport instead of public transport.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7caf10e elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"7caf10e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-a5cff02 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a5cff02\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-1a991a5\" data-id=\"1a991a5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-978fccd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"978fccd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>State of emergency<\/h3><p>Since 2024, several states of emergency have been declared in Ecuador, which enables tougher action against drug criminals. With a state of emergency in place, the government can use additional resources such as special army and police units against these criminal organizations. The current president Daniel Noboa, who was appointed late 2023, is supported in this by the Ecuadorian people.<\/p><p>Currently there is a state of emergency in force in the following provinces: Guayas, Manab\u00ed, Santa Elena, Los R\u00edos, El Oro, Pichincha, Esmeraldas, Santo Domingo de los Ts\u00e1chilas en Sucumb\u00edos and in three municipalities in the province Bol\u00edvar. The following provinces currently have a curfew in place from 11 PM to 5 AM: Guayas, Los R\u00edos, El Oro en Santo Domingo de los Ts\u00e1chilas.<\/p><p>It is good to know that such a state of emergency is declared quite quickly here &#8211; compared to North America or Europe. It is a political tool that is regularly used by Ecuadorian heads of state. In most cases this has little or no impact on the daily lives of Ecuadorians or tourists. At the moment, daily life continues as usual and this state of emergency is not noticeable in the parts of the country where it is in force. Tourism in Ecuador has continued as usual throughout this time and tourists can travel safely. Our travelers are therefore currently experiencing no safety problems.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f13ffb3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f13ffb3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Latest update: March 20, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Safety in Ecuador Information about safe travels in Ecuador Is Ecuador a safe holiday destination?
