    Quilotoa Lagoon Tour

    It was one of the best organized, professional and most importantly, a fun tour in Quito - Quilotoa - Banos, Ecuador. We had a lot of fun and learned new things during every stop. Irene (our tour guide) is the best tour guide anyone could ever ask for. Her passion for her country and the knowledge that she has to share is outstanding and very inspiring. You could feel the love for her country in every word. It was definitely a unique and unforgettable experience. 100% recommended with Irene!

    Day 2 made up for Day one

    We give it a three star only because day one was all over the place. We had Ayrton for our guide both days and the itinerary was not exact to what it says for booking. We planned our day accordingly based on what was listed on the 2-day trip and that is not how day one went so there was confusion and very little communication as to what was going on. Day two really made up for day one as it felt like we were mostly in the car all day for day one. Day two we got to get out and enjoy fun activities. We go on guided tours a lot and normally they are spot on with timing and todo list so we were disappointed to see how unorganized this was. We also noticed that the trip wasn’t informative like other tours. We like to learn as we go… that is the guide job to teach and those two days we learned very little. Day two we were only supposed to do 2 things and head back to Quito which is why we booked it because we had a busy long day trip the next day , instead we got back to our hotel at 11pm at night and the tour guide left us with the bus driver 30 mins before getting dropped off to head home for the night which we thought was bizarre. Day one we made a 2 1/2 stop at a location and we were told to be back at the bus ready to leave by 230( while everyone has free time to eat and hike) 230 our family and other guest were ready on the bus. The guide told us he needs to now eat his lunch while we wait. We sat for an addition 30 min while he ate his lunch which made no sense considering he could have at when everyone else did. For the price paid it was crazy how unorganized. Overall if you’re a go with the flow type of person then this could be good for you but if not this isn’t the excursion for you.

    Best guides ever and great experience with this excursion, unbelievable views, places

    First, I would like to thanks Guides who were with us on this excursion, the first one was Angel, unbelievable guy, smily, kind, didn't hesitate to make stops anywhere we wanted to enjoy views of Quilotoa, Cotopaxi, we met people from indigenous community, he shared history and culture of Ecuadorians people, thanks to him a lot. The next day was with Andres (bus driver), and Irene as guide , amazing people, we enjoyed sharing the lunch with them, especially in this lovely restaurant and all the day was a succession of sharing moments, laughs, we can see that Irene loves what she's doing and make us feeling really comfortable. She also takes the time for us to enjoy and do whatever we want to do, she's lovely, shared with us all her knowledge's about places where we've been, teached us some Quechua language, legends from her country, she's so funny and more and more, thank you all for this incredible experience :) I recommend 200%

    Great trip!

    This tour was great! Our tour guide, Adrian, was really knowledgeable and made the trip really fun. It was organized well and had great stops along the way. It’s a bit expensive, but you will definitely have a good time.

    Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quito.

    How much does Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities cost?

    +

    Prices start at $249 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 Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 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 Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 40 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 Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities?

    +

    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 Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities?

    +

    Around 14 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities 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.

    What is included in Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities?

    Included: Bilingual guide; Entrances: Quilotoa, Swing at the end of the world, Pailon del diablo waterfall, Cable car; Tourist transportation; and Entraces inlcuded.

    Does Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities include hotel pickup?

    +

    What languages is Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Quilotoa-Baños 2-Day Tour Including All Activities wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
