Be seduced by one of the most incredible landscapes of Ecuador: the Quilotoa lagoon. Enjoy a unique view of the volcanic caldera from the Shalala viewpoint!
Quilotoa Trip
We will pick you up at 2 am in Guayaquil and board a minibus to Quilotoa, in the province of Cotopaxi. This area, formed by volcanic activity, features stunning natural beauty. The caldera is a highlight of the trip.
Crossing the Toachi canyon, we will arrive at one of the most impressive lakes of the Andes. The Quilotoa lagoon, approximately 2 miles in diameter, is a result of a volcanic eruption over eight centuries ago, creating a natural jewel of Ecuador.
After admiring the lagoon from various viewpoints, we will visit the Shalala viewpoint for a panoramic view. Bring your camera for this opportunity, during which we will discuss the area's geology.
On the return trip, we will stop by the Toachi River to appreciate the view of the surrounding pine forest. We expect to arrive back in Guayaquil by 8 pm.
