Descrizione
Discover the Andes on a private tour from Quito: Otavalo craft market, Cotacachi leatherwork and Cuicocha crater lake — guide and private transport included.
Escape Quito for the day and discover the heart of Ecuador's indigenous Andes on this private tour, traveling north through the colorful valleys of Guayllabamba and Cayambe.
Explore Otavalo's legendary craft market, one of South America's most famous, where Kichwa artisans sell handwoven textiles, alpaca goods and crafts. Nearby in Peguche you can experience traditional weaving up close, and in Cotacachi you can browse the workshops of a town renowned for its leatherwork.
Finish at the breathtaking Cuicocha crater lake, a turquoise caldera ringed by the Andes, where you can take in sweeping views and capture unforgettable photos.
Throughout the day you travel privately with your own certified local guide and vehicle, enjoying a relaxed pace that leaves plenty of time to shop, photograph and soak up the culture.
The experience lasts approximately 8 to 10 hours and departs from Quito in the morning. Please note that Cuicocha sits at roughly 3,100 m (10,200 ft), so light walking at altitude is involved.
