Quito & Andes, Ecuador

A highland region of colonial city culture, volcanoes, Andean villages, and crisp mountain-day travel.

Highlights

When to Visit

Jun-Sep

These drier months are often the easiest for Andean travel, volcano views, and highland road trips.

Oct-Nov

This shoulder period can still work well, with a good balance of scenery and manageable conditions.

Dec-Feb

The wetter season remains workable for city-and-highland travel, but mountain plans are more variable.

Mar-May

Rain becomes more frequent, though the region stays rewarding if you are flexible and not chasing perfect skies.
