Cotopaxi Province
The drive to Quilotoa Lake displays stunning views of the Andean mountains, passing the ancient canyon of the Toachi River, many indigenous communities and farmlands. Before lunch, in the location known as “Huayra Pungo”, we will visit a local indigenous hut, where you will have the opportunity to interact with the inhabitants of the hut and perhaps, to learn few Kichwa words, which is the native language of this region!

Laguna Quilotoa
The tour includes a steep hike down into Quilotoa Crater, where is a sparkling-emerald-lake inside the extinct volcano, located at 3.600 meters above sea level (11,811 ft). The way back to the top, where the parking lot is located, takes about one hour, or there is an option of renting a mule or a horse, with a comfortable settle, to avoid the up-hill-way hike on your way back!!

Quito
It is going to be very helpful and comfortable being on a private tour, due to the high altitude, so you'll be assisted by your tour guide at every moment, all day long, and especially you'll take your time in every activity to make this day trip the best lifetime experience in Ecuador! You will be back in Quito approximately at 5:00 p.m., after having enjoyed the Andes at its purest!
