About this itinerary
During this trip you will be at high altitude (approx. up to 3800 meters), so warm clothes (hat, scarf, gloves, warm upper layers, wind/rain proof jacket) are recommended.
You will also need to stay hydrated to avoid effects of altitude, we recommend bringing 2 liters of water per person.
This is a private tour, so you have flexibility to make itinerary changes on the day with your guide.
We recommend booking day tours at least one week in advance, to ensure that a guide is available for you, and the trip booking & organization can be done smoothly.

Quilotoa was the most awesome day of our week long trip, the first view of the crater lake is just unbelievable!
