Hogar de Esperanza in Cuenca has started to offer two economical ways to explore Ecuador:

• Wednesday Escapadas

  Wednesday Escapadas are transportation only. Upon arrival at the destination, you are free to do what you want. Hogar de Esperanza will take you to places you might not otherwise find accessible. Most of these trips are pet-friendly.

• Let’s Vamos!

  These trips are fully organized and all-inclusive.

All proceeds from these trips support the work of the foundation.

Hogar de Esperanza invites you to let them know your suggestions for places to visit.

To view the schedule or make a reservation, you can visit this webpage: https://hogaresperanza.org/en/escapades/
