Beskrivning

I hjärtat av Sydamerika, inbäddat bara två timmar norr om Quito, ligger den gåtfulla staden Otavalo. Det är inte vilken stad som helst; det är ett pulserande epicentrum av kultur, konst och natur. Otavalo är känd överallt för att vara värd för kontinentens mest expansiva indiska hantverksmarknad, och är mer än bara en marknadsplats. Det är en gobeläng av livfulla färger, invecklat träarbete och mästerlig vävning. Bortom de livliga stånden och brummandet av byteshandel ligger Otavalos själ i dess hisnande bakgrund. Majestätiska toppar, fridfulla sjöar och orörda naturreservat vaggar denna stad, medan viskningar från gamla indiska byar dansar i vinden. Otavalo är inte bara en destination; det är en upplevelse, en resa in i hjärtat av ett land som tiden glömde.

Cuicochas berömda sjö vilar inuti en 3 km (2 mi) bred kaldera som var resultatet av en massiv explosion som inträffade för ungefär 3 100 år sedan. Vulkanen har varit vilande sedan dess, men den vulkaniska askan som spreds till följd av det gamla utbrottet förvandlade området till ett område känt för sina näringsrika jordar.

Long but fun day with Lincoln

I had a fun day with Lincoln. It ended up just being the 2 of us. We had many laughs. I recommend bringing luggage with lots of room. There are lots of lovely things to but at Otovalo. Also the town of leather goods which is where we had a delicious lunch. The people at Otovalo were a bit pushy for me & it was difficult to just shop as they were doing the hard sell. I’m not a fan of that or crowds so not my thing ver went for a walk along a beautiful lake & Lincoln described many of the plants. Traffic back to Aquino was horrible.

Operatörens svar

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you had a fun day with Lincoln and that the two of you shared plenty of laughs along the way. He’ll be very happy to know you enjoyed his company and appreciated learning about the local plants during your walk by the lake. It’s also great to hear that you enjoyed the delicious lunch and found some wonderful shopping opportunities in Otavalo and Cotacachi. Your advice about bringing extra luggage space is certainly a good tip for future travelers! We understand that the atmosphere in the Otavalo Market can feel a little overwhelming at times. As one of South America's largest indigenous markets, many vendors actively invite visitors to their stalls, and while some travelers enjoy the lively atmosphere, we appreciate that it isn't everyone's preferred shopping style. Unfortunately, traffic on the return journey to Quito can occasionally be heavy, especially in the late afternoon, but we're glad it didn't take away from what sounds like a memorable day overall. Thank you again for your thoughtful review. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Ecuador soon!
