Quito from the heights
There are many ways to get to know Quito, but there is a very special way to get to know it, from the heights, and what better from the great colossus that always takes care of us, the Pichincha Volcano. Which is actually the Pichincha Massif, an impressive set of hills and volcanoes that protect the beautiful city of Quito.
On our tour you will be able to discover the magic that nature hides without traveling outside the city, get to know the charm of the Pichincha Volcano, try to touch the sky with your own hands and if you are lucky recharge your energies.
