Tour details

Activity description

We continue on to the "Middle of the World City," where you can see the monument that divides the planet's northern and southern hemispheres. Built in the 18th century, a French scientific expedition determined the exact position of the equator, a must-see for anyone visiting Quito. It includes admission to the Middle of the World complex, where you can enjoy unique experiences that defy the laws of physics and only occur in this part of the world. After visiting this privileged location and registering it in your passport, you'll always see Ecuador and the Middle of the World differently.

Itinerary:

We will pick you up at NNUU Boulevard, the main point for the Quito Tour Bus.

Get ready for a half-day that includes outdoor activities like hiking, as well as stops of cultural interest and unique viewpoints.

*First stop: Central City of the World.

Get your passport stamped here and enjoy the various cultural sites scattered throughout the resort. Don't be surprised if a traditional celebration takes place during this time. (VIP admission included).

Suggested stop #1: Ethnographic Museum and Equinox Line. Climb long stairs while learning about Ecuador's history and culture on each floor. Take magnificent photographs of the equatorial zone from the top of this beautiful monument and also along the mean equinox line.

Suggested Stop #2: Typical Ecuadorian food and paila ice cream. Enjoy a delicious yahuarlocro or simply a potato locro. If you want to try the delicious fritada or roasted guinea pig, this is also the best time to do so. After enjoying a quick meal, try Rosalía Suárez's traditional Ibarra paila ice cream. A shop selling this traditional ice cream is located within the complex. (Food not included).

Suggested stop #3: Ancestral Houses. Learn more about the typical architecture of Ecuador's provinces and understand Ecuadorian culture and traditions.

Enjoy a comfortable return to the city center. Drop-off is at Boulevard ONU.
