Bike Through Quito's Parks and Historic Center

We will start the tour in the northern area of the city, stopping at places like Carolina Park, the Botanical Garden, El Ejido Park, the National Assembly, Alameda Park, San Marcos Church, and much more before heading to the old town.

At one of the stops in the traditional neighborhood of San Juan, you will also have the opportunity to learn how to make a delicious corn cake known as quesadilla.
