Itinerar

Ziua 1 · Discover the colonial city by walking - Ecuadorian Cooking Classes

  1. Quito Old Town

    6 ore Intrarea inclusă

    Experience the sights, smells, and flavors of this sky-high capital as the day comes to life. Start this adventure on the cobblestone streets of the city to visit: The Mercado Central, a vibrant and colorful market to immerse yourself in the bustling atmosphere; follow your guide past stalls bursting with exotic fruits and fresh vegetables and discover sizzling local dishes. Visit the Independence Plaza, home to the Independence Monument, Government Palace, and the Archbishop’s Palace. La Compañía de Jesús church, a Jesuit church boasting an elaborate façade made entirely out of volcanic stone, and an interior rich in gold leaf. The legendary  San Francisco Catholic  Church to explore convents and monastery, then walk down through Rocafuerte Street, which in the Seventeen Century was known as “the long Street to the hill”.  Explore La Ronda, one of the most picturesque cobblestone streets in Old District of Quito. Try flavors that you’re not likely to find back home — like colaciones, empanadas, etc...  Stop in a chocolatería to taste and have a full explanation of the whole process of making chocolate.  After 4 hours of city exploration by walking, be ready to take cooking lessons with a professional cook.

Ziua 2 · The best Museums of Quito

  1. Museo Casa del Alabado

    30 min Intrarea inclusă

    Housed in an elegant colonial-era home, this privately owned museum with contemporary displays showcases an impressive collection of pre-Columbian artifacts. Thematically organized around subjects such as shamans, pigmentation and the afterlife, explanations in English and Spanish (audio guides are available) explore the indigenous beliefs represented by the finely crafted ceramic pieces and jewelry.

  2. La Capilla Del Hombre

    30 min Intrarea inclusă

    One of the most important works of art in South America, Ecuadorian artist Oswaldo Guayasamín’s Capilla del Hombre stands next to the Casa Museo Guayasamín. The fruit of Guayasamín’s greatest vision, this giant monument-cum-museum is a tribute to humankind, to the suffering of Latin America’s indigenous poor and to the undying hope for something better. It’s a moving place and tours (in English, French, and Spanish, included in the price) are highly recommended. Admission includes entrance to the Casa Museo.

  3. Museo Nacional del Ecuador

    30 min Intrarea inclusă

    Located in the circular, glass-plated, landmark building of the Casa de la Cultura is one of the country’s largest collections of Ecuadorian art, with magnificent works of pre-Hispanic and colonial religious art. The museum collection includes more than 1000 ceramic pieces dating from 12,000 BC to AD 1534, with highlights being ‘whistle bottles’ from the Chorrera culture, figures showing skull deformation practiced by the Machalilla culture, wild serpent bowls from the Jama-Coaque and ceramic representations of tzantzas (shrunken heads).

  4. Museo de la Ciudad

    45 min Intrarea inclusă

    This first-rate museum depicts daily life in Quito through the centuries, with displays including dioramas, model indigenous homes, and colonial kitchens. The 1563 building itself (a former hospital) is a work of art. There are also a number of temporary exhibitions.

Ziua 3 · Mitad del Mundo Complex - Inti Ñan - Teleferico

  1. Mitad Del Mundo

    2 ore Intrarea inclusă

    The Mitad del Mundo ("Middle of the World") complex just outside Quito is heavily promoted as being "the equator". In fact, it is a tourist trap built around a monument to an expedition which located the equatorial line with impressive accuracy for the time (the 18th Century) but which later technology has revealed to be about 240m off the mark.

  2. Intinan Equator Museum

    45 min Intrarea inclusă

    An interactive museum that showcases the history of ancient towns in the country and answers all your pressing equator-related science queries.

  3. TeleferiQo Quito

    o oră Intrarea inclusă

    For spectacular views over Quito’s mountainous landscape, hop aboard this sky tram, one of the world's highest aerial lifts, that takes passengers on a 2.5km ride (10 minutes) up the flanks of Volcán Pichincha to the top of Cruz Loma. Once you’re at the top (a mere 4100m), you can hike to the summit of Rucu Pichincha (4680m), a 4km (five-hour) round-trip – ask about the safety situation before attempting the climb and bring warm clothes.
