Cotopaxi and Quilotoa - My dad and I had the best time visiting Cotopaxi Nationalpark and the Quilotoa Loop. The view and the hiking was really diversified and totally worth the effort and we would recommend it to anyone visiting Ecuador. Luckily our tour guide Alejandro was really nice and had a huge knowledge not only on the history of Cotopaxi but also the indigenous people and their language. We had a lots of fun and such a great time together, these two days will hold a special place in our memory on our first trip to Ecuador!
