QUITO – ZULETA: Zuleta Experience
1 Stop
1
Bordados Zuleta
Your journey begins with a scenic drive through green mountains, patchwork fields, and picturesque villages as you leave Quito behind. Upon arrival in Zuleta, you’ll be welcomed by a local guide and experience life as a guest, not a tourist. Walk through charming streets before visiting a local artisan’s home for an embroidery workshop, where you’ll learn traditional techniques and create your own souvenir. Enjoy a three-course lunch featuring local ingredients and ancestral recipes. In the afternoon, visit the Casa Museo Karangue to discover local history, traditional adobe construction, ancient looms, and archaeological treasures, plus a hands-on adobe-making activity. End the day with an overnight stay at a historic hacienda surrounded by the Andes.
