In the morning a car picks us up at the hotel. After a half hour drive we arrive in the subtropical valley in which the town of Gualaceo is located. The town is known for its artesanacy, its folklore and the beautiful river that flows through it. First of all, we pay a visit to a family that makes beautiful textile work. After this, we will visit Ecuador’s largest orchid garden and then continue to Chordeleg, known for its fine jewelry and precious metal forging. We have a delicious lunch in a local restaurant and in the afternoon we visit a workshop where guitars are made before returning to the hotel.
To bring: sun and rain protection, camera and water.
