ITINERARY
Northwest of Quito, and as one of the closest natural attractions to the city, lies Mindo — a charming destination with a warm and humid climate, located at the transition point between the Andes and the Ecuadorian coast. This lush cloud forest is home to an incredible variety of bird species, making it a favorite among biologists, birdwatchers, scientists, and adventurers alike.
On our shared one-day tour, we’ll begin with a visit to the butterfly and orchid garden, where you can admire the region’s unique biodiversity. Next, we'll head up into the hills for an exciting canopy adventure, gliding over the treetops of the cloud forest. If we’re lucky, we might even spot some birds flying alongside us.
After this thrilling experience, we’ll cross the river on a tarabita (a rustic cable car) and hike down a scenic trail to the river, where you'll have time to swim and enjoy the natural surroundings. We’ll end our day with a visit to a local artisanal chocolate factory to learn all about the chocolate-making process — from bean to bar. Return to Quito.
This tour runs Every Friday AT 07:10 AM (Sharing basis)
