The Equator, Ecuadorian Tequila & Quito

This morning, your guide will take you to the Equator, where you can participate in experiments at the Intiñan Museum, such as balancing an egg on a nail or observing how water drains differently in each hemisphere. While some demonstrations are designed for visitors, the scientific concepts remain intriguing. The museum also provides a deeper look into Ecuadorian culture, highlighting the biodiversity of the Galápagos Islands and traditions of Amazonian tribes. Before heading to your hotel, you'll stop at the House of Ecuadorian Tequila to learn about the plant and process behind Miske, a locally known spirit. The day concludes with a transfer to your hotel in Quito, followed by dinner at Neuma Restaurant—one of the city's top dining spots—where Ecuadorian cuisine is reimagined with a modern approach. Neuma was recently recognized in The World's 50 Best Restaurants in Latin America.
