Adventure on the Equator
Highlands & Rainforest
After colonial Quito and visiting the equator, you travel to the famous market town of Otavalo and walk by a crater lake. You'll enjoy a stunning descent with dramatic views of the snow-capped peaks of the Andes before you head out into the Amazon jungle. Experience the feeling of being enclosed by a mass of vegetation and marvel at the sounds and biodiversity of nature.
Incas, Panamas & Volcanoes
The mountains bring you the spa town of Banos, traditional weaving communities and a walk on the flanks of the mighty Chimborazo Volcano (6310m). You'll take the stunning Devil's Nose train journey and visit the Inca ruins of Ingapirca before reaching colonial Cuenca, home of the Panama hat. Here you have the opportunity to trek, mountain bike and horse ride. The final highlight is a walk in the stunning scenery of Cajas National Park.
