Our adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in Quito between 5:00 and 5:30 am, followed by a scenic drive lasting around 3 hours and 30 minutes to the vibrant city of Baños de Agua Santa.

Upon arrival, a panoramic tour will guide us to some of the area’s most iconic waterfalls. Marvel at the majestic Agoyán waterfall and the impressive Manto de la Novia waterfall, both soaring over 70 meters high. We will make several stops at viewing points, giving you the chance to capture stunning photographs and enjoy the soothing sound of cascading waters.

Your adventure continues with a thrilling ride on a tarabita, a cable car offering breathtaking views of the Ecuadorian jungle from above. Prepare your camera as the vistas will be unforgettable!

Next, we will embark on a brief hike to the renowned Pailón del Diablo, a waterfall nearly 100 meters tall. Here, you'll have around 2 hours and 30 minutes to explore the surrounding forest and appreciate the exquisite local flora.

Our journey then takes us to the Casa del Árbol, famous for its extraordinary End of the World Swing. The panoramic views of the Tungurahua volcano will leave you in awe.

Before concluding our day, we'll take a break for lunch and then dive into a guided exploration of Baños de Agua Santa. Highlights include the historic Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, charming colonial architecture, and an assortment of local craft and sweet vendors.
