Ecuador’s Amazon lodges and Galápagos programs are genuine ecotourism — your spend funds real ecosystem protection, not just the marketing.

Greenwashing is common in ecotourism — look for operators with Rainforest Alliance or Ministerio de Turismo certification, not just the word ‘sustainable’ in the name.
