Discover the enchanting subtropical rainforest of Mindo Cloud Forest during our van or SUV tour departing from Quinto. Immerse yourself in an array of breathtaking sights, including vibrant hummingbirds, captivating toucans, and mesmerizing waterfalls.



Upon waking early in the morning, guests will be picked up from their accommodations in Quito, ensuring they are well-rested for the day's adventure ahead. Transport will then be arranged in an air-conditioned van or all-terrain vehicle, driving them towards the Mindo Cloud Forest Ecological Reserve. At an elevation of approximately 1,900 meters above sea level, visitors will embark on a scenic journey through picturesque landscapes. As the route winds its way uphill, stops will be made at various viewpoint locations, offering breathtaking vistas of lush greenery below. Upon reaching the Mindo Village, situated at the southern boundary of the Chocó/Andean biodiversity hotspot extending from southwestern Colombia to northern Ecuador, guests will have ample opportunity to engage with the surrounding natural beauty.

The next leg of the trip involves a thrilling ascent via a 530-meter-long cable car ride, bringing travelers across the mountain range. This excursion culminates in visits to several notable waterfalls: Ondinas, Guarumos, Colibríes, Madre, and Los Maderos. Each waterfall offers a chance to enjoy refreshing dips, enhancing the sensory experience during the hike.

As the day progresses, guests will have the option to spend leisurely moments purchasing lunch or exploring nearby attractions such as the Orchid and Butterfly Farm or the Chocolate Factory. Following these activities, transportation will return them to their accommodation in Quito by late afternoon, allowing guests to restock and prepare for another exciting day of exploration tomorrow.
