- Mercado Inaquito - It is suggested to begin the morning without breakfast. The tour guide will arrive at 10:00 AM to embark on an exciting journey through the old town.

The tour includes viewing the Cathedral, the Archbishop’s Palace, and the Church of the Sacred Society of Jesus of Quito, a pinnacle of Latin American Baroque architecture.
