Equator Museum Half Day Tour + Tasty Empanada Stop

About this activity

The Equator park tour takes you to the most visited touristic destination in Ecuador. It’s a must-visit.

You can choose to visit the Equator during the morning or afternoon.

It’s easily accessible from both the city center and the airport area.

Furthermore, it will give you something fun and interesting to do if you have some time to spare while waiting to catch a flight in the evening or if you have a free day during your travel time in Ecuador.

Equator Park is like no other place on Earth. You can literally stand on the Equatorial Line and jump back and forth from the Northern to the Southern hemispheres. You can have someone take the quintessential pic standing atop of the Equator. The park was recently renovated and it now offers tons of fun and interesting things to do at zero latitude.
