Worth it

Amazing views the whole day. We made a few stops on the way with great views and visited an Indian tribe from the Andes which was cool to see. The hike down quilotoa was a little bit difficult due to the trail being steep, rocky, and a little slippery but it was 100% worth it for the views at the bottom. The way up was very hard if you’re not used to the pressure at those altitudes but there are horses for $10 you can ride up which makes the hike to quilotoa accessible to anyone who wants to see the views. Our guide was great he was very patient and super friendly. Overall 10/10 experience.
