Overview

Two of Ecuador's most popular destinations combine to bring natural beauty and adventure to this full-day tour from Quito.

In the town of Banos, local culture, waterfalls, and the country's much-photographed Tree House swing in the clouds await.

Amazing day trip
Sabyasachi_G, Apr 2024
Lovely lovely trip in a super comfortable car with a lovely guide Pedro. The view of Mount Cotopaxi took our breath away .The Ecuadorean roads were so wonderful.Banos was a tourist paradise,such a happening place with lots to shop and eat. The waterfalls were stunning and the cable car ride across the river was the highlight of the trip. Pedro drove us around beautifully and kept informing us about all things needed. The ice cream stop on the highway was also a surprise. Over all a great day out albeit quite long at almost 14 hours but we slept all the way back. Lunch was also yummy ,the trout was delectable . A must do day trip if you are short of time and not want to miss the two attractions. Thank you Pedro .
Amazing places with an amazing guide

We had a great day with David touring Cotopaxi and Banos. Day was jam packed with photo stops, breakfast, lunch a walk in Cotopaxi, two sets of water falls, a tram, ice cream and a ride on a swing on the side of a cliff. Highly recommend David as a tour guide as he was attentive, engaging and a wealth of information. Thanks David for making it a great day !!

Great driver and guide on a busy holiday weekend using Google maps to avoid the crowded streets. We got to see views that most don’t. Fun stops and the ease of having everything taken care of a big plus.
Great day with Pedro

Pedro our guide was fabulous. We got lucky with the weather but had a great trip to the volcano, banos, the swings, cake car, waterfalls- be aware it’s sloppy on the way down. Great day if you want to cover both places in a short time.

Dear Rebecca Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your trip to the volcano, the swings, cake car, and waterfalls. It's wonderful to know that your guide Pedro was fabulous and that the weather favored you during your visit. We are happy to hear that you were able to enjoy so many attractions in a short period of time. However, we regret that the road to the waterfalls was a bit complicated. We value your feedback and look forward to the opportunity to serve you again in the near future. Thank you again for choosing us as your travel option! Best regards,
