Half-Day Middle of the World and Pululahua Volcano Tour

Just 45 minutes from Quito, the Middle of the World Monument offers a unique experience on the planet: the opportunity to stand with one foot in each hemisphere.

This iconic site marks the location of the equatorial line and pays tribute to the 18th-century French Geodesic Mission, which confirmed Ecuador’s position as the middle point of the world.

During the visit, you will explore the impressive 30-meter-high monument, climb to its viewpoint for panoramic views, and visit the Ethnographic Museum inside, which showcases the cultural diversity of the country’s indigenous peoples. You will also have time to wander through the tourist complex, which includes a colonial square, restaurants, handicraft shops, a planetarium, and interactive spaces where you can carry out experiments related to the unique phenomena that occur on the equatorial line.

A fun, educational, and cultural experience that blends science, history, and local traditions—ideal for travelers of all ages. We will also visit the Pululahua Volcano, where we can see one of the few inhabited craters in the world.
