Ecuador. Since 2007.
CarpeDM Adventures was born in 2007 from a single Dead Poets Society line and a chance run-in at a Quito hostel. Today we're the Top Recommended Tour Operator & Travel Agency Lonely Planet sends you to, G Adventures' Preferred Daytour Supplier for Ecuador, and the team behind two of the most respected lodges in the Cuyabeno Amazon. We didn't grow by going faster. We grew by going deeper.

What We Run
Door One
A vetted fleet of catamarans and yachts. Last-minute deals, premium expeditions, and the small ships your guidebook doesn't know about. We've been matching travelers to the right boat for 18 years.
Explore Galapagos →Door Two · Our Lodges
We're investors in Caiman Eco-Lodge (TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice) and Piranha Eco-Lodge. That means we control quality from arrival at Lago Agrio to your last sunset on the Laguna Grande.
Explore the Amazon →Door Three
Cotopaxi, Quilotoa, Mindo, Otavalo, Quito Old Town, Banos. The classics done right, with local guides, small groups, and the Slow Flow pace. Our day tour operation is also G Adventures' chosen Ecuador supplier.
Explore Ecuador →The Slow Flow Movement
Slow Travel with room for spontaneity. Time to listen to your guide. Room for the unplanned moment that becomes the story you tell at home. That's Slow Flow, and it's the language our travelers tend to use when they describe what their CarpeDM trip felt like afterward.
You need experiences that stay with you. That's what we build, one traveler at a time, since 2007.
