Description

At the designated time, we will pick you up from your chosen meeting point and travel to the western mountain range of the Pichinchas at an altitude of 2,850 meters. We will buy tickets for the Quito cable car. After a 10-minute journey, we will arrive at Cruz Loma station, almost 4,000 metres above sea level.

From this location, you will have access to views of Quito and, if weather permits, sightings of nearby volcanoes such as Cayambe, Antisana, Sincholagua, Cotopaxi, and Atacazo. At the summit, you will enjoy one hour of free time including access to the famous Cruz Loma swing.

We will proceed to visit the Quito's Botanical Garden, where an incredible variety of plants will be explored, including discussions on conservation efforts for endangered species.

Depending on time, we may stop at the Guayasamin Museum, known as La Capilla del Hombre, which honors humanity and encourages reflection on Latin American history. The museum focuses on human rights and cultural identity.

After our visits, we will return to the starting point, concluding our 4-hour tour.
