Description

• Tour Overview

We will begin the day in the morning visiting the UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Major Square of Quito and its Cathedral. Then, we will go walking to the Jesuit Church, considered the most spectacular baroque style, gold gilded church in South America. Later on, we will walk to the Plaza of San Francisco and admire the Franciscan church facade. We will continue to La Ronda, one of the signature streets of old Quito recently made famous in the U. S. by Samantha Brown's "Passport to Latin America". We will drive up to the Virgin of Panecillo statue for a spectacular view of the city. I will loan Nikon binoculars to bring interesting things up close. We can then go on to the Middle of the World or the Teleferico (cable car) whichever you like. We will be flexible and add or subtract sites as you express preferences.
