Overview

Get ready for a tour full of colors, tradition, and culture! During this free tour, we will take you to the best corners of the Historic Center of Quito to find the perfect souvenirs, special gifts, or details you were missing before returning home.

On this tour you will discover an incredible variety of authentic handicrafts, carefully crafted by talented artisans from different communities in Ecuador. You can choose from products made with toquilla straw, alpaca wool, clay, wood, and even precious metals, each with its history and meaning.

From Montecristi hats, beautiful Andean embroidery, and traditional pottery, to fine jewelry with the millenary technique of filigree, you're sure to find something you'll fall in love with!

Tip: Don't forget to bring cash, as many artisans work independently so you can directly support their art and tradition.

Ready for a unique shopping experience in the heart of Quito? Join us and let's take a little piece of Ecuador with you!
