Chimborazo Volcano, standing at an altitude of 6,268 meters above sea level, is the pinnacle of Ecuador’s volcanic formations. Its uniqueness lies in being the world’s tallest volcano measured from the earth’s center.
The excursion sets off from Quito, with pick-up and drop-off services provided at hotels across the city’s tourism district (hotels near the airport might require an additional fee).
