ECUADOR, the tiny country on the pacific coast of South America, mirrors the variety of the whole continent. In this one small area only half as big as Great Britain, you will find Amazon rain forests, snow capped Andean peaks, Pacific coastline, and the Galapagos Islands. Because of the relatively short distances involved, a single night's bus ride from Quito can put you on the coast or the jungle. Travel within the country is cheap because domestic flights are not needed. At the same time the country boasts a cultural variety to rival any of its neighbors, which stems from its high proportion of Indian, Mestizo and Afro-Ecuadorian people.

MOGGELY¹ is run by Mogge, a viking, and his Ecuadorian wife Ely. Due to our family contacts in and around Machachi, the number one mountain town in Ecuador, we are on very good terms will the local landowners who own the access rights to the mountains in the area. We will always try to make you feel like a family member staying close to you at all times and always ready to help with any problems or questions you might have, we consider this very important.

As a Scandanavian run agency we are very careful to minimise our impact on the local environment and operate in the most ECO-friendly ways possible. We are experts who specialize in Climbing, Trekking, Jungle, and Galapagos Tours. Also we are happy to design "Tailor Made Tours" to suit the individual or group. Moggely is the biggest Climbing and Trekking operator in Ecuador. We take approximately 750 students a year from GAP and World Challenge Expeditions and work with some of the largest European agencies. Moggely Climbing is also responsible for all the rescues for most northern European countries plus Canada and Australia. For all these reasons we are highly recommended by the SAE (South American Explorers Club). All other tours are arranged with reputable agencies in their appropriate fields of expertise. Choosing tour operators in Ecuador is very difficult because many are unreliable and semi-professional.

We also rent rooms at Moggely House, the site of our Quito headquarters, and operate Hostel Valhalla near Machachi and Cotopaxi National Park. If required we will pick you up from the airport and take you to your chosen Hotel or Hostel. We always aim to offer competitive prices matched by a quality of service that is at least as good as our best competitors. Your safety is our main concern.

We also have a small page of links that you might help you enjoy Ecuador.

Moggely is the correct spelling, not Mogli, Moggli, Mogelly, Mogely, or anything else.
