Avenue of the Volcanoes

Our guide includes tourist information on 27 routes in the 10 zones that form the backbone of the peaks along the Avenue of the Volcanoes. Each route, a tourist destination in itself, is an alternative far away from the main highways and popular itineraries. These routes are designed to provide an unhurried and considered appreciation of the surrounding countryside. Indeed, as opposed to other types of tourism, the journey itself is intended to form part of the enjoyment.

Bird-wathching in Quito

To date, 9,702 bird species have been identified throughout the world. Of those, 1,640 are found in Ecuador. That is, 17% of the world’s population inhabits a country representing less than 0.1% of the planet’s surface. From Quito and its surrounding areas, you can observe a good part of the ecological and bioclimatic diversity that characterizes Ecuador. And you don’t have to go far, the city’s parks head the destination for bird-watchers.

Quito Viewpoint`s

Contemplating the hills, mountains, volcanoes and snow-capped horizons must be one of the most enjoyable visual experiences for Ecuador’s visitors.
