Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel in Quito and head south along the Avenida de los Volcanes. Weather permitting, admire views of hills and volcanoes such as Pasochoa, Corazón, Cotopaxi, and Ilinizas. Pass through the town of Pujilí and continue to the indigenous community of Tigua, famous for its Andean indigenous-themed crafts. Visit an artisan workshop to observe these works of art up close. Continue to the Zumbahua Community and stop at the viewpoint of the Toachi River. Next, head to the viewpoint of the lagoon and admire the entire crater of the extinct volcano and the large lagoon of turquoise color and other shades of green and blue of Quilotoa. Begin your walk with your guide and descend until you reach the shores of this beautiful lagoon. Enjoy some free time to take a boat or kayak ride in its waters (not included).
