Overview

Enjoy a day trip to the Middle of the World Monument and top it off with a hike in the Pululahua. This crater was declared a National Park in 1969, becoming the first to do so in Ecuador and in South America. You will take memorable pictures at the Equatorial line and then enjoy the hillsides of the Pululahua, which are a Geobotanical Reserve that protects more than 53 botanic species and 21 animal species. Your tour includes a professional guide and transport.

What to expect

  1. Mitad Del Mundo
    2h · Admission ticket not included
    Just north of Quito, in a parish called San Antonio de Pichincha, lies the most visited attraction in the country, the Mitad del Mundo monument and complex dedicated to the equator and the fact that Quito lies only a handful of kilometers from it. A tourist’s favorite will forever be the iconic picture of them standing on the thin yellow line painted on the cement that (fictitiously) divides the planet in two. T
  2. Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve
    20m · Admission ticket included
    “A peaceful paradise for the nature lovers”, “a jewel”, “a secret near Quito”, are some of the descriptions used today by the people that visit the reserve for the first time. This mystical place is also believed to have a great concentration of “Nature´s Energy” for being almost on the equatorial line and above an active volcano. The people, who live here, do not want to leave it, and the visitors always feel at peace and want to stay longer.
  3. Intinan Equator Museum
    1h · Admission ticket included
    The Intiñan Museum is located just outside of Quito right next to the Mitad del Mundo monument. Most people know that Mitad del Mundo's equator line is a bit off. Intiñan has its own marker and it's closer to the right spot.
