Ride the Quito Cable Car for panoramic views of the Andes, then visit the Quito Botanical Garden and the Capilla del Hombre. Enjoy free time to explore the mountain trails and scenic swings.

Enjoy a scenic 10-minute gondola ride up to nearly 4,000 meters (13,120 ft) above sea level. From the top, take in spectacular panoramic views of Quito and, weather permitting, admire some of the surrounding volcanoes, including Cayambe, Antisana, Sincholagua, Cotopaxi, and Atacazo.

Enjoy approximately 1 hour of free time to walk along the mountain trails, enjoy the scenery, and experience the swings overlooking the Andes.
