After a rainy week in Quito two friends of mine and I decided to go to Mindo over the weekend.

So on Saturday morning we hopped on the first bus and arrived after 2,5 hours and a flat tire in the warm and sunny Mindo. We immediately started our search for the ultimate adventure and ended up in the small office of one of the numerous tour operators. They introduced us to the various options we had to get "adrenalized". Canyoning, Tubing, Canopy, Waterfalls, ...

It was really hard to decide what crazy thing we should try out first. We agreed on canyoning, 3 waterfalls and an amazing landscape. We were very happy with our decision to book this tour.


















Totally wet, exhausted and smiling like idiots we returned to our hotel to get ready for the next part of the "ultimate Mindo-Experience": a Chocolate Tour. That even sounded delicious... and it was! We learned how to make the best cocolate fondue ever from scratch.

The next day we managed to squeeze canopy, jumping from a 12 meter waterfall and tubing on a crazy little river into 7 hours of fun.








After one last delicious "almuerzo" we got on the last bus back to Quito, wishing that weekends would consist of more than just two short days...
