Quito: Authentic Cloud Forest Experience

Discover the beauty of Ecuador's cloud forest. Visit an orchid farm, see dozens of hummingbird species at the Alambi Reserve, and learn about the Yumbo culture at the Tulipe Archeological Site.
Escape the buzz of the city and dive into the lush, green world of Ecuador’s cloud forest on this full-day adventure from Quito. Your first stop is Yunguilla, a beautiful community tourism project nestled in the mountains, where you’ll visit an orchid farm bursting with color and local biodiversity. From there, head to Alambi Reserve, a true hummingbird haven - dozens of species flit around you in a magical, high-speed dance.
Next, continue to one of the region’s top birdwatching reserves - San Tadeo or Milpe, for example - where you’ll be surrounded by the sounds and colors of the forest. Keep your eyes peeled for toucans, tanagers, and maybe even the elusive motmot! On the way back to Quito, you’ll explore the Tulipe Archeological Site, where ancient stone pools and ceremonial structures offer a glimpse into the mysterious Yumbo culture. Finish the day with the rich aromas and bold flavors of a Coffee Experience at Finca Frajares - fresh brews surrounded by green hills and good vibes. A perfect blend of nature, culture, and flavor - all in a single day!
