In the fleeting embrace of time, the vast tapestry of Ecuador unfolds before you. Picture this: a caldera, spanning a vast three kilometers, its birth a testament to nature's raw power, carved from the earth by a cataclysmic eruption some eight centuries ago. And then, the towering majesty of one of the planet's highest active volcanoes, standing as a sentinel of nature's fiery heart. As you find respite in the historic charm of Quito, remember, each stop on this journey is but a brief interlude, a mere 30 minutes. Yet, in that half-hour, vistas of unparalleled beauty unfurl, beckoning you to capture their essence in frames that will forever echo the spirit of Ecuador.

Our guide Alejandro was just perfect. Educated, considerate, smiling, he answered all our questions and especially our least expectations. With a clean vehicle and at our own pace we made an extraordinary excursion. I recommend.

My dad and I had the best time visiting Cotopaxi Nationalpark and the Quilotoa Loop. The view and the hiking was really diversified and totally worth the effort and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Ecuador. Luckily our tour guide Alejandro was really nice and had a huge knowledge not only on the history of Cotopaxi but also the indigenous people and their language. We had a lots of fun and such a great time together, these two days will hold a special place in our memory on our first trip to Ecuador!
