I was in Baños in late March and the rain was constant yet manageable, with sunny breaks between heavy showers, so I kept my camera dry in a ziplock bag and hiked early before the thunderstorms rolled in.

Traveling to Ecuador in the rainy season is safe when you plan smart. Afternoon showers tend to be intense but short, so pack waterproof layers, sturdy shoes, and a plastic cover for your daypack. I booked Quito mornings for city exploring, leaving room in the afternoons for a nap or museum visit when rain hit. On the coast, expect hot and humid days with storms that quiet down by evening, so stick to hotels with good drainage and keep an eye on bus schedules because landslides can delay travel. The Andes get cooler with wet roads, so pick accommodations near the main plazas and book transfers through reputable companies that monitor conditions.
