2 Days Tour to Cotopaxi National Park and Quilotoa

Quito is the home to beautiful cathedrals, elegant old mansions, interesting museums, plazas and parks, and is filled with street markets selling a wealth of Ecuadorian jewels, arts and crafts. This wonderful spring-like climate is dominated by mountains, with several snow-capped volcanoes standing majestically in the distance. It was also declared the third most important world cultural heritage site in Latin America, by UNESCO.

Two hours south of Quito is Cotopaxi Volcano, which occupies the landscape of a National Park of the same name, and is famously known as the highest active volcano on earth. This is a place where llamas graze and mountain bird species fly, including the Andean Condor, Ecuador's national bird.
