We'll pick you up from your hotel in Quito and start our tour of the villages in Imbabura.

After boarding our minibus, we'll drive for 1.5 hours to our first stop, Cayambe, where we'll visit a bizococho factory. A breakfast option will be available.

After the lake, you will have free time for lunch at a local restaurant before visiting Cotacachi, known for its leather goods, where you can shop for handicrafts.

Before returning to Quito, we'll stop at a shop for chocolates made from the best cocoa in the country.
