This
was
one
our
favorite
things
we
did
in
Quito.
My
husband
and
I
arrived
at
11:30am
on
a
Friday
and
there
was
no
line
whatsoever.
Paid
$8.50
/
person
to
ride
the
cable
car
up
the
mountain,
which
took
about
10
minutes.
It
felt
very
safe,
as
vaccination
cards
were
required
in
addition
to
hand
washing
prior
to
entering
the
sanitized
cable
cars.
At
the
top,
there’s
a
cute
cafe
for
coffee
and
you
can
walk
across
the
edge
of
the
mountain
to
find
the
swing
(a
cool
photo
opp),
the
horses,
and
amazing
views
of
the
volcano.
Things
that
you
may
find
helpful:
—
hold
on
to
your
ticket
-
they
ask
you
to
show
it
on
the
way
down,
and
we
had
almost
thrown
ours
away.
—
the
earlier
in
the
day
you
go,
the
more
likely
you
are
to
get
extensive
volcano
views.
The
clouds
roll
in
around
lunchtime.
—
the
ride
itself
is
worth
the
$8.50,
making
it
a
good
option
for
those
less
physically
fit.
You
can
step
off
the
cable
car
at
the
top
and
you
have
immediate
amazing
views
of
the
city.
However,
if
you
are
fit,
there
are
some
cool
trails
to
explore.
A
good
option
for
folks
of
all
ages.
-
We
took
Ubers
to
and
from
the
base,
which
was
affordable
and
easy.
However
there
were
also
people
offering
taxi
rides
(in
case
you
don’t
have
service
or
an
international
phone
plan).
