About us
In the early nineties, several long hikes in pristine rainforest on the banks of the Amazonian Bobonaza river, lay the base for Julio Verne Travel. The founders were Ecuadorian naturalist guide William Reyes and Dutch journalist Popkje van der Ploeg. From the outset, it was their purpose to share the hidden marvels of Ecuador with travelers from all over the world. Julio Verne Travel was established as a legal Ecuadorian company in 1995. It got its name from the French 19 the century author Jules Verne, honoring his epic novels. The company opened its doors in Baños, located on the edge between Andes and Amazon and at the foot of Tungurahua – a sleeping volcano until 1999. That year, Tungurahua started to erupt, causing the forced evacuation of Baños and the – initially involuntary – relocation of Julio Verne Travel to Riobamba in the Central Highlands.
