Must do in Ecuador - The trip was very well organised. Unfortunately the Teleferico was closed for reparing but our guide Jimena organised us I think even better activities instead of that, considered what we wanted. Very special and secure trip. Thank You, Jimena!

The tour of the old part... - The tour of the old part of Quito was interesting, but our favorite part of the tour was the ride up the Teleferiqo for the incredible views. The Mitad del Mundo museum was also interesting. The exhibits showing the effects of being on or near the equator were scientifically correct, although to demonstrate the incredibly small effects of moving a few feet to either side required a bit of "slight of hand". All in good fun.

Mitad del mundo/teleférico Quito - We went on a day trip with our guide, Diego in April 2019. Although the weather was a bit rainy that day, we enjoyed the experience greatly. Diego was very well informed in history, culture and nature. He explained everything very well in both English and Spanish. The time spent at the different sites was sufficient to get a good impression. I recommend this 100%

A great "private" tour with Daniel - We had chosen the full day tour because we wanted to see more of the city of Quito during our stay.. We finally ended up being only 3 people and got a "private" tour with Daniel. Daniel is a very passionate guide and has a great knowledge of the city. We began our tour with the TeleferiQ Cable Car where we ride up 4050 m. high to land on the Pichincha ladders, This site offered an outstanding panoramic view of almost the whole Quito City and the volcanoes (Antisana, Cotopaxi and Cayambe) although there was a foggy cloud over the city due the many fires. Then Daniel took us to the Middle of the World Site. Afterwards, we visited the Inti Ñan Museum, a scientific and cultural museum located in the real location of the Equator Line. We hit the road again heading back to the city of Quito Historical Center where we had lunch (great Andean cuisine). We continued the tour visiting the Old town of Quito, the UNESCO World Patrimony, stepped into the beautiful colonial churches around the San Francisco Square and Church, the Independence Square and the main Cathedral, the Presidential Palace Building, and the iconic La Compañía de Jesus church. We didn't have the time to go to Panecillo Hill before getting back to our hotel. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend Daniel.

FUN AND EDUCATIONAL - This was a great place to get a mix of culture, science and history regarding the equator and it's unique role in each heading. Of the two "Equator sites" I feel this is the best.
