Quito, what to do in the capital of Ecuador?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Quito is the capital of Ecuador and probably the place where you land when you arrive in the country. Most international flights fly to Quito or Guayaquil. Once here, you will be able to move around the country, either by national flights or by bus. However, before traveling to the next stop on your itinerary, we recommend that you pay a visit to Quito.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quito is a city full of history and culture. It is known for its beautiful colonial architecture and breathtaking mountain views. Its&nbsp;<strong>Historic Center<\/strong>&nbsp;is a UNESCO World Heritage Site&nbsp;and is home to colonial churches and beautiful old squares. The&nbsp; <strong>Metropolitan Park<\/strong>&nbsp;is one of the largest parks in the city and it offers panoramic views and picnic areas. Other tourist attractions include the&nbsp;<strong>Panecillo<\/strong>, the Basilica del Voto Nacional, the City Museum and the Cable Car. These are just some of many attractions that Quito has. But this vibrant city has so much more to discover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" data-attachment-id=\"27013\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/ecuador\/things-to-do-ecuador\/attachment\/trip-to-ecuador\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,576\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"trip-to-Ecuador\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?fit=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?resize=1024%2C576&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Things to do and see in Ecuador\" class=\"wp-image-27013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/trip-to-Ecuador.jpeg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">View over Quito, capital of Ecuador @unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-santa-cruz-island-galapagos-a-paradise-in-ecuador\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-Santa-Cruz-Island-Galapagos-a-paradise-in-Ecuador\"><\/span>2.

However, it is the most popular island for tourism and important financially. It is a well-known tourist destination due to its incredible natural beauty and rich biodiversity. There you&#8217;ll find an enormous variety of activities in nature, such as snorkeling, bird and other animal watching, hiking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Among the many things to do on this island of Ecuador, we highlight <strong>Las Grietas,<\/strong> an impressive geological phenomenon, a series of natural pools or &#8220;cracks&#8221;, created in the rock by the erosive action of water over millions of years. It is also an ideal place to swim and enjoy the marine biodiversity of the Galapagos. Another place to appreciate this wonderful experience is in <strong>Tortuga Bay<\/strong>. A beach that is home to many endemic species of marine animals, such as black turtles, to which it owes its name, marine iguanas and tropical fish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"27014\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/ecuador\/things-to-do-ecuador\/attachment\/things-to-see-in-ecuador\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-.jpeg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"683,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-.jpeg?fit=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-.jpeg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"27014\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-.jpeg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Things to do and see in Ecuador?\t\" class=\"wp-image-27014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-.jpeg?w=683&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-see-in-Ecuador-.jpeg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"27015\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/ecuador\/things-to-do-ecuador\/attachment\/things-to-do-in-ecuador\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Ecuador.jpeg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"683,1024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Things-to-do-in-Ecuador\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Ecuador.jpeg?fit=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Ecuador.jpeg?fit=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" data-id=\"27015\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Ecuador.jpeg?resize=683%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Things to do and see in Ecuador\" class=\"wp-image-27015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Ecuador.jpeg?w=683&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/passporterapp.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Things-to-do-in-Ecuador.jpeg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">Las Grietas, in Santa Cruz, one of the most magical places to see in Ecuador @unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, on a trip to Santa Cruz Island, you can&#8217;t miss Puerto Ayora.

But in a very general way, it can be said that Ecuador has two seasons: the dry season and the rainy season. The dry season (summer) runs from June to September and is also the coolest. The rainy season (winter) generally extends from October to May and is warmer and more humid.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1684748368486\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is the best time to travel to Ecuador?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">\u00bfC\u00f3mo moverse por Ecuador?As we said before, Ecuador has a great variety of climates depending on the area. Therefore, the best time to travel will depend a lot on your travel itinerary. If you travel to the Andean zone, the best time is from June to September. If you visit the coast, the best time is from December to April, with less rain and more sun. If you travel to the Galapagos, you should consider traveling from June to November.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1684748437281\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How to travel around Ecuador?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Depending on your time and budget, you can choose between: plane, bus, train, rental car. Generally, we recommend the plane if you need to cover long distances or travel from Quito or Guayaquil to the Galapagos Islands. However, the most common economical option is the bus. The main tourist sites are well connected by this mean of transport. Finally, if you want to have more freedom and not depend on anyone, the best option is the rental car. Prices start at about 30\u20ac per day.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ecuador is one of the most beautiful countries in Latin America thanks to its great geographical, cultural and natural diversity.
