Quito Old Town
Walking Tour
. Half Day Tour.
About this trip
Step back in time into the best-preserved Historic Center in all of Latin America.
Quito, the first city to be named a UNESCO World Heritage Site, holds an authentic, vibrant history that cannot be seen from a tour bus. Join our exclusive 4-hour walking journey and step straight onto the ‘Street of the Seven Crosses’ (García Moreno), where centuries of political power and profound religious art collide. We move past the governmental heart in the Plaza de la Independencia, giving you a local’s perspective on the stories and legends behind Ecuador’s cultural roots. This is your chance for a genuine, deep dive into the soul of the city.
Prepare to be captivated by stunning architectural contrasts. The tour guides you from the elegant colonial façades near the Metropolitan Cultural Center to the jaw-dropping, late-19th-century masterpiece: the Basílica del Voto Nacional. This Neo-Gothic marvel, unlike any other Church in the Americas, is our grand finale. Forget the typical photo op—our tour grants you exclusive access to ascend the towering spires. Climb the narrow, unique pathways and be rewarded with unparalleled, 360-degree panoramic views of Quito, a perfect canvas of history meeting the Andes mountains.
