The family went zip lining through a cloud forest, ate guinea pig, and cruised around the Galapagos.
And so kicked off the family’s whirlwind two-week trip in Ecuador.
“They’re seasoned travelers,” said Burtka.

“AndTravel + Leisurereaders,” added Harris.
For Burtka, who had long dreamed of traveling to the Galapagos, the cruise exceeded his every expectation.
“We just loved it,” he said.

“The excursions were phenomenal, and the Hurtigruten guides were so knowledgeable.”
For Harris, the trip was the perfect combination of fun and education.
We’ve been trying to fill our kids' and our own lives with more of that."

It was quite a bumpy adventure, Harris recalled, especially after the family’s week after sea.
They evenrode an aerial bike across the canopy of the forest.
“Now that they’re older and more self-sufficient, we’re pushing them to get out there.

We still have safaris to do and Asia to discover!”
Echoing the same sentiment, Burtka lent a tip for families looking to travel.
“Ecuador isn’t necessarily a chill family vacation,” he said.
“There are a lot of excursions.
So, I’d recommend it for families with children ages 8 and above.
And be sure to balance all the adventuring with iPad time.”
