1. We’ll venture into the northwestern part of Quito, one of Ecuador’s most biodiverse regions, until we reach YAPI – Refugio Natural, a private property surrounded by forest and nature. Upon arrival, we’ll enjoy a breakfast prepared especially for our guests before setting out on a hike along the property’s trails. During the hike, we’ll discover the natural richness of the Andean Chocó, observing the flora, the landscapes, and—with a little luck—some of the bird and wildlife species that inhabit this ecosystem. We’ll conclude the hike by returning to YAPI, where lunch awaits us at our restaurant, prepared with fresh ingredients and local products. An ideal experience for those who wish to connect with nature, explore a unique environment, and enjoy Ecuadorian cuisine in a private setting surrounded by forest.

About Quito

Quito, Ecuador's high Andean capital, has one of the best-preserved colonial centres in Latin America, ringed by volcanoes and green mountains.

The historic centre was among the very first places named a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and its churches, plazas and monasteries are spectacular. La Compañía de Jesús glows with gold leaf inside, the Basilica del Voto Nacional has gargoyles shaped like Ecuadorian animals, and Plaza Grande is surrounded by the cathedral and the presidential palace.

Top-ranked sights in Quito: Cotopaxi National Park, Basilica of the National Vow (La Basílica del Voto Nacional), Independence Plaza (Plaza de la Independencia).
