Full-Day Mindo Cloud Forest with Lunch

Discover the lush cloud forests of Mindo, one of the most biodiverse regions on Earth, on a full-day journey from Quito. Visit a butterfly garden where hundreds of butterflies fly freely around you, enjoy a gentle forest walk ideal for birdwatching—tangers, toucans, hummingbirds, and even the elusive umbrella bird—and savor a homemade organic lunch at a local restaurant. The experience continues at an artisanal chocolate factory, where you’ll learn about Ecuador’s fine-aroma cacao, taste different chocolates, and try a fun pure-cacao facial mask. *A close-up encounter with hummingbirds in a dedicated garden, where these tiny birds hover just inches away and, with a little patience, may even feed directly from your hand—an unforgettable moment that makes this tour truly unique.
