Quito: Cable Car, Botanical Garden, and Chapel Tour｜Ecuador

Begin your day with a pickup from your hotel in Quito and head toward the western mountain range of the Pichincha volcanoes. Arrive at an altitude of approximately 2,850 meters (9,350 ft) and purchase your ticket for the Quito Cable Car.

Enjoy a scenic 10-minute gondola ride up to nearly 4,000 meters (13,120 ft) above sea level. From the top, take in spectacular panoramic views of Quito and, weather permitting, admire some of the surrounding volcanoes, including Cayambe, Antisana, Sincholagua, Cotopaxi, and Atacazo.

Enjoy approximately 1 hour of free time to walk along the mountain trails, enjoy the scenery, and experience the swings overlooking the Andes.

After descending back to the city, continue your tour with visits to other attractions, such as the Quito Botanical Garden or the Capilla del Hombre (Chapel of Man), dedicated to renowned Ecuadorian artist Oswaldo Guayasamín.
