Overview of your Quito tour:

Most of us are intrigued by beautiful hummingbirds but have neither seen many nor seen them closeup. Ecuador is the world hummingbird capital. You will not believe the number and variety of these little birds surrounding you, mesmerizing, fascinating, beautiful, even landing on your fingers if offered, Use Vivian's Nikon binoculars to see these and other things even closer. Choose one of two locations: 1. Route east from Quito up, up and over the Andes to a jungle location on the Amazon approach. 2. Route west from Quito down, down into beautiful cloud forest, as the temperature becomes warmer, to a cloud forest location on the approach to beautiful Mindo. Either location gives you gorgeous Andean country scenery en route and either location gives you the opportunity to stop for lunch and can include other things such as Middle of the World, Papallacta thermal baths and more. A wonderful escape from the huge, concrete city of Quito. Price is for up to 3. This tour can be for up to 10 people - see below
