Laguna Quilotoa, Ecuador Visit To The Viewpoint Of Quilotoa: Hike And Visit To The Quilotoa Lagoon: The crater of the dormant volcano forms a bowl that collects the azure waters of the lagoon. Its color is due to the accumulation of sulfur. According to legend, this was the scene of the battle between the Quilotoa gods who lived on the surface and Toachi, who was under the lake, because that aroused envy the ability of the first to reflect the color of the sky.
Visit To The Artisan Workshop In The Community Of Tigua: Color is the protagonist of the stories that narrate the crafts of Tigua, works that are manufactured by the community of the same name.

This was a great day! Our tour guide was Pam, she was very helpful and informative. We enjoyed the drive up the mountain which included seeing over 50 dogs on the way! A very well planned and well executed tour. I would definitely recommend if you’re in Quito. The hike is a bit rough but the mules that can take you back up the mountain are worth the extra price.
