Intinan Equator Museum
A few hundred meters north of the entrance to the main Mitad del Mundo complex, this amusing museum has meandering outdoor exhibits of astronomical geography and explanations of the importance of Ecuador’s geographical location.The real reason to come, of course, is for the water and energy demonstrations, but you’ll have to decide for yourself if it’s just a smoke-and-mirrors funhouse.

Good excursion near Quito
Daniel did a great job and guide and driver, giving us an insight into Ecuador's history and culture, in addition to the sites we saw. We first saw Pululahua Crater from the observation area. We had a good amount of time at the Intiñan Museum, where there was an on-site English guide taking us through the cultural exhibits and fun Equator demonstrations. Then the nearby Mitad del Mundo, where he climbed the historic monument built where they used to think the Equator was.

Great trip
Xemena was an excellent guide. Will refer friends if the opportunity arises. There were only 2 in our group so we got very personal attention.

Exceeded expectations
Excellent tour. Great way to experience the equator and Quito. Guide Oscar and driver Pedro were excellent. Exceeding all expectations!

Great tour, would recommend
Our tour guide, Wendy, was great. She was very knowledgeable and took time to explain the history of her country. She brought fruit for us to try during the drive to experience more of Ecuador. We recommend this trip!

It was just an OK tour
We took the Mitad del Mundo + Pululahua half-day trip with Latin Adventures Tour Operator. We enjoyed our time at Intinan but once we got to the second complex (Mitad del Mundo), we felt rushed. The guide came with us (at Intinan, he drops you off to take the official tour with one of their guides) and quickly walked us along the main artery, into one museum, and then out again. We wanted to look around some of the other museums in the complex + some of the little shops, but we were rushed along -- even though we ended up coming back to the city half an hour before our alloted tour time was up. You should offer free time to explore at Mitad del Mundo since it is such a big complex.
Response from the operator: I'm sorry for this inconvenience. All our guides know that must give customers time to visit the complex. We will remember all our guides about it. Thank you for your comment! It will help us to improve our service. All the best,

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.
How much does Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included! cost?
+
Prices start at $89 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quito usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included! take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quito is not rushed.
Is Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 32 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quito, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included!?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included! suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included!?
+
Around 11 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quito can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quito and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour: Middle of the World & Pululahua Crater. All entrances included! start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quito within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Quito?
+
On Outty we rank every Quito experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cotopaxi Volcano full day tour with all the entrances, every day, Cotopaxi tour from Quito -horseback ride and hike-NO TOURISTY way, Baños Full Day Tour from Quito Including Entrances and Activities. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Quito?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Quito?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
