Ecuador is home to the middle of the world! Where south meets north, the hemispheres are divided and a monument stands to show this great divide! You can't visit Ecuador without going to the middle of the world. The monument will make you feel like you're on top of the world!

You'll start at the northern part of Quito and head up to the 'Middle of the World City' where you'll visit the monument that divides the northern and southern hemispheres.

It was built during the XVII century when a French Expedition defined the precise location of the equatorial line. You'll also have the opportunity to visit the Ethnographic Museum to learn more about the culture and people of Ecuador.

Upgrade to the lunch package and enjoy a local lunch at one of the best restaurants in Quito!
