Operated by Rebecca Adventure Travel · Quito, Pichincha
You step out of the plane into Quito’s thin air and the city breathes below you—red-tiled roofs, churches stacked against the flanks of the Pichincha, and a horizon of jagged volcanoes. The first day is a soft landing: a historic center walking tour, a hands-on cooking class, then a rooftop view from Capilla del Hombre where the Andes seem to lean in and listen. It’s the tone setter for a trip that moves fast between ecosystems—cloud forest, páramo, coastal mangrove and the volcanic islands born from the sea.
