What makes Private Quito City Tour, Equator line and Pululahua Volcano a unique experience ?
The Basilica Church is better known as one of the largest Neo-Gothic churches of the Americas. Climbing one of the towers will reward you with an amazing view of the surrounding mountains and city.
In the heart of the old town we can find the Plaza de la Independencia, better known as Plaza Grande or the Independence Square. The guide will happily share his knowledge about this important place and surrounding buildings, such as the Presidential Palace.
La Compañia Church: Quito’s most embellished church. With many beautiful wood carvings, gilded plaster and gold leaf decorations it is no wonder why this church is better known as one of the most significant works of Spanish Baroque in South America
The San Francisco Church is home to over 3.500 pieces of colonial art and the city’s beloved 18th century sculpture of the Virgen of Quito.
On top of the Panecillo hill you will have a great view of the 45-meter high statue of the Virgen of Quito against the backdrop of all the amazing historic buildings you just visited.
