About this experience
Discover the best of the Andean north on a journey filled with culture, history and unforgettable landscapes. We begin at the Quitsato Solar Clock, located exactly on the equator, where you’ll learn how pre-Columbian cultures interpreted the sky and the seasons from this unique point. We then continue to the Otavalo Market, one of the largest and most colorful in South America. Enjoy free time to explore, meet local artisans and find beautifully handcrafted textiles, hats and unique pieces made by the Otavalo Indigenous community. Next, we visit the stunning Cuicocha Lagoon, a volcanic crater lake surrounded by Andean mountains—an ideal spot for breathtaking views and a deep connection with nature.
*A short tasting at the Biscuit and Agave Museum in Cayambe.
