Try flight scanner app. $821 from Halifax to Quito in February
horseback riding out of Cuenca is stunningly beautiful, do a full day.. link to a great outfit/guide. Also if time take a few days to visit Saraguro further south, beautiful indigenous community and great Sunday market, and even further south Vilcabamba for breath taking mountainous hikes/horseback riding . Avoid the Guayaquil bus terminal if possible, a monstrous ants nest and someone peed in the middle ....Banos is a must for adrenaline activities, recreation capital of Equador.
