Perfect option if you're leaving Baños for Quito

5.00Just perfect if you're leaving Baños to go to Quito. They're the only ones in Baños providing the tour to end at the doorstep of your hotel in Quito. The tour towards and at Quilotoa is great too. Magnificent views over the lake and nice stops before you end up at Quilotoa
