Itinerary
Día 1
CITY TOUR: HISTORICAL QUITO + HALF OF THE WORLD
- We will tour the Historic Center of Quito, starting with a visit to the Church of the Basilica of the National Vote, where we will make a brief stop for an explanation of its facade, to later move to the Mirador del Panecillo, an iconic place of the city, recognized for its beauty, and where there is a giant statue of the "Winged Virgin", from where you can admire a beautiful landscape of colonial and modern Quito.
- Later, we will continue with the Plaza de San Francisco, one of the representative places of the city, and full of history, from where we will walk to the Plaza Grande, historical and political center of the city, surrounded by innumerable attractions among them: the Cathedral, the Government Palace, the Archbishop's Palace and the Church of La Compañía.
- Our tour will continue in the traditional La Ronda neighborhood, in whose romantic setting we can find workshops where our visitors will learn with a group of authentic artisans, how their works and trades of yesteryear are made that keep the cultural traditions of this charming city alive.
- We will make a stop in the pink zone of the city, approximately an hour and a half to have free time for lunch (not included), and then we continue with our excursion.
- Then, we go to the "Middle of the World City", where you can see the monument that divides the northern hemisphere from the southern hemisphere of the planet. It was built in the 18th century, where the French scientific expedition defined the exact position of the equatorial line, which divides the world and is an unmissable place for those who visit Quito.
- We suggest you do our “Legends of Quito at night” excursion to complement this experience with a later tour in the Historic Center of Quito and learn about its urban legends, or a Craft Beer tasting on our excursion “The tour of Quito craft beer ”.
