Cotopaxi National Park
Behold the majestic Cotopaxi, a vision of perfection with its impeccably symmetrical cone draped in a lavish cloak of snow and ice. A crowning jewel of Ecuador, this volcano beckons travelers from across the globe, making it the nation's most adored and ascended peak. Nestled amidst the ethereal paramo plateau of the Cotopaxi National Park, witness wild horses roaming freely, their silhouettes dancing against the vast plains. They converge by the serene Limpiopungo lagoon, a mirror reflecting the pristine white summits of the neighboring Volcan Rumiñahui. This haven is not just a sight, but a symphony of nature, where waterfowl and avian wonders serenade the soul. 1. Mariscal Sucre Interpretation Centre - get your passport stamped :) 2. Basecamp 4864 m Jose Rivas Refuge 3. Laguna Limpiopungo - followed by a hearty lunch that is included.

Weather was miserable but it was a great trip.

5.00Adversity just makes it more memorable. Yes, the road in is long and bumpy. Yes, we were buried in fog for much of the drive and hike. Wind was blowing hard, and the rain and hail stung. That said, we just plodded up the hill, loving the occasional breaks in the clouds and fog. Altitude was not an issue, just take it slow. We defrosted in the Refuge, then bundled up again. On the way down, we scampered down the short cut, and arrived at the car in 15 minutes. Definitely recommend the switchbacks for the ascent, and the steep short cut for the descent. Lincoln was great on the hill, and awesome at spotting wildlife. We saw Cara Cara birds, horses llamas, Andean gulls and an Andean fox. The fox was the wildlife highlight.

5.00Felipe and CarpeDM made our 30th anniversary a truly memorable experience! Felipe was a wonderful guide and made sure we were well prepared for the climb to Cotopaxi base camp. He had all the supplies we needed and made sure we were safe at all times. We had a great weather day and it was truly a special place to see. We had a wonderful lunch after the climb and bike ride to the lagoon. They treated us with an anniversary cake and song. After that was a surprise visit to the rose farm. All in all a special day we will treasure. They worked with us to pick us up at the hotel and drop us at the airport. Highly recommend Felipe and CarpeDM.

5.00We had an excellent and unique travel experience. We went with guide Felipe to Cotopaxi. Felipe throughout the journey, still in the city of Quito, passed us a lot of information about the city as well as the country: Ecuador. This information on the geographical and ethnic issues of the country and especially those that concerned our invested, the care when arriving and climbing the Cotopaxi. The tour goes through stunning, unique places. The bike tour, the visit to the lagoon near the volcano and lunch are other attractions of this tour. You still had the surprise provided by Felipe but I can't talk because surprise is surprise! Rsrsrsr I'll be back on new trips with the Enterprise.
Epic day with lots learned

5.00We had a fantastic day trip with Alejandro going from Quito to Cotopaxi! He was highly knowledgeable and was able to answer our questions throughout the day. He was patient while I slowly hiked up the volcano and was encouraging as we biked later in the day. We’ve done a number of tours on our travels and this was by far the most experienced a guide has been. Many thanks! Highly recommend!

5.00It was a great experience. The guide Lincoln had a lot of patience with me, as I had difficulty climbing due to breathing. During the journey was explaining the whole story and acclimating us to the Main moment. Super recommend.
