Description Summary
  • Leave Quito aboard a comfortable coach or bus. Head south along the Pan-American Highway: driving through spectacular scenery and soaking in views of Ecuador’s countryside from stunning heights. On the way to Cotopaxi Volcano National Park, stop to sip coca leaf tea to help reduce any altitude sickness, and stop by at the local museum to learn more about the park’s unique biodiversity. Then, visit the Limpiopungo Lagoon. If weather permits, your tour will end with a walk to see Cotopaxi, an active volcano 19,000 feet (5,900 meters) above sea level. Take the opportunity to visit a local market or two during your travels; and finish with a trip to Quilotoa Volcano, whose crater houses a beautiful turquoise lake. Take in the views here before returning to Quito in the afternoon. Note: If the day is too foggy and cloudy, guests have the opportunity to repeat the tour at no additional cost.
