Full Day Tour of Quito's Equatorial Monuments

At the designated time, we will pick you up from your hotel in Quito to begin our tour. In less than 40 minutes, we will arrive at the Middle of the World.

Our first stop will be the Zero Point Museum, where we will explore the Earth's equator, equinoxes, and solstices. Next, we will visit the Intiñan Interactive Museum to conduct experiments, including the Coriolis effect and egg balancing.

We will then visit the city of Mitad del Mundo, where we will explore the iconic monument marking the equatorial line. There will be time to browse artisan shops and visit complementary museums of beer and cocoa, including a chocolate tasting.

Before our next stop, we will allow free time for lunch with recommendations for local restaurants.

With renewed energy, we will head to the Quito cable car, located at more than 4,000 meters (13,123 feet) above sea level, to admire Quito’s scenic views.

Finally, we will visit the Virgen del Panecillo monument, which offers spectacular city views and houses a museum for memorable photos. After 8 to 9 hours, we will return you to your hotel.
