One to three persons can experience a day of relaxation at the beginning or end of the Ecuador tour. Papallacta is located two hours from Quito to the east of the Andes range at 12, 500 feet. Enjoy thermal waters of this volcanic area; finish the day with a massage that will revitalize you. You may also want to eat fresh, stream trout. We can drive ten minutes over the mountain top to see the beginning of the Amazon falling off below and running 2, 300 miles to the east and huge diameter, clean, oil pipes coming out of the jungle headed to west coast ships. This is the exact spot Pizzaro and Orellana crossed discovering the Amazon in 1542. On the jungle side we can stop at a beautiful, profuse hummingbird site where sometimes they actually land on you! A great escape from huge Quito; can include a beautiful, fascinating rose farm. Ecuador is the world's largest rose producer, probably where your Valentine roses came from. Price quoted is for up to 3 people.
Pick up at your hotel Drive to the east of Quito and up, up and more up, the same route that Pizzaro and Orellana took to discover the Amazon River in 1542 Tour a fascinating rose farm if you like On a clear day see in the distance amazing snowcapped Antisana volcano, the fourth highest volcano in Ecuador. I will loan you high quality, Nikon binoculars. Crest the top and the Amazon dropping off to the east below as well as jungle oil pipes headed up and over to the west coast, interesting if you have any interest/concern for the environment. This scene will make it very real for you; you'll probably never forget it. Swim in the geothermal pool and enjoy medicinal waters in the Papallacta spa if you like Walk a short trail beside a beautiful mountain stream. If you like, enjoy a relaxing massage and sleep all the way back to Quito Drop off at your hotel
