Description

Travel from Quito to Baños on a scenic Andean road trip. Explore Cotopaxi National Park, visit the Quilotoa Lookout, enjoy the changing landscapes, and ride in a classic 4x4 Land Cruiser.
Begin your adventure with a morning pickup in Quito and drive into Cotopaxi National Park. Explore the volcanic highlands, enjoy panoramic views of Cotopaxi Volcano, and visit the beautiful Limpiopungo Lagoon, one of the most iconic landscapes of the Ecuadorian Andes.

Continue south through rural Andean communities to reach the spectacular Quilotoa Community and crater. Enjoy time at the viewpoint, visit local handicraft stalls, and admire the turquoise volcanic lagoon from above.

Unlike traditional day tours that return to Quito, your journey continues through the central Andes toward Baños de Agua Santa. Along the way, enjoy changing landscapes as the high-altitude páramo gradually gives way to greener valleys and cloud forest scenery.

Arrive in Baños in the late afternoon or early evening, where your service concludes.
