Holiday In Quito

Resting high in the Andes Mountains is the highest capital city in the world: Quito, Ecuador.

With old, pastel-coloured buildings that creep up the slopes of the surrounding hills and an Old Town that was the first place ever designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we think it’s about time you venture there. Take a look through lastminute.com.au’s Quito package deals today and go into the mountains tomorrow.

Things to Do in Quito

When you get to town, priority numero uno is to get a vehicle from lastminute.com.au’s Quito car hire options. Head to the Ciudad Mitad del Mundo (Middle of the World City), a tract of land just north of the city. It literally is “the Middle of the World” because it straddles the equator. Think about it for a second: You could be in summer and winter at the same time! Try to wrap your head around that.

You don’t have to be a hippie to elevate yourself during your holiday in Quito. All you have to do is hop on the Teleferico—the world’s second-highest cable car—and go for a ride up the slopes of Pichincha Volcano. On days when the sky is clear enough, you’ll be able to spot the peaks of six other nearby fire-breathing mountains.

Shopping, Dining & Nightlife

Do you want to add to your souvenir collection? Of course you do, because gathering an array of local relics is part of what you do on a Quito holiday. Drop some of your saved Ecuadorian sucres at the craftsman shops in Plaza San Francisco, Plaza Grande or Museo Mindalae. Get a half-dozen pan flutes and start your own band with your chums. And don’t forget to pick up an alpaca hoodie with matching socks! The animals are simply shaved for their fur, so you don’t need to worry about PETA protesting on your lawn.

Since your appetite has never led you down the wrong path, follow it to the Plaza El Quinde in the Mariscal district. Holidays to Quito immediately go up a notch if you eat classic Ecuadorian ceviche. It’s a simple concoction of shrimp or fish, lemon and tomato sauce. But hey, if creatures of the deep aren’t your idea of a meal, then sit down for a meal of hornado, potatoes served with roasted pig. Hold on, we’ve got to go—we’re starving.

You should be excited that it’s finally nighttime, because that means it’s time to party. Wind your way through the steep streets of Guapulo and enjoy a couple of glasses of aguardiente, a sugar cane-based spirit. It’s one of the most popular cocktails in the country, but don’t let the sweet taste fool you. These babies are strong. This area is a bit on the quiet end of the nightlife spectrum, so head to the La Ronda area if you’re looking to spice things up.
