Destination Profile
Cheap flights to Quito from USA can whizz you down to South America from some major airports in as little as four hours when going direct. What awaits is a mist-haloed capital, draped over the highest plateaus of the Andes. Delve in and you can find mysterious pre-Columbian gold artifacts, plazas gilded with Spanish palaces, and leafy squares where cantinas bubble with life. On the horizon, the brooding cone of 5,800-meter-tall Cotopaxi is a forever reminder that larger Ecuador awaits. Head out and you'll discover its snow-capped peak, volcanic crater lakes, surf-bashed towns, and even the long-lost wonders of the Galapagos archipelago.
A Neo-Gothic masterwork in the heart of Quito, the Basilica of the National Vow is one of the gems of the Ecuadorian capital's downtown.
Cotopaxi crashes overhead on the horizon above Quito. It's a mighty stratovolcano that can be climbed with a guide.
The TeleferiQo cable car will whisk you to the tops of Pichincha Volcano, for some of the best lookouts above the city.
No airlines have direct flights to Quito from the United States of America.
