City of the Middle of the World Tour

Stand in Two Hemispheres at Once: An Unforgettable Adventure of Science, Culture, and Fun

ABOUT THE City of the Middle of the World Tour

This tour is operated by our partner Kunakunna Experiences. 

 

Experience the incredible sensation of standing in two hemispheres at the same time! On this Middle of the World tour, travelers will explore the famous equatorial line, where science, culture, and tradition merge to create an unforgettable adventure. With a local guide, visitors will uncover fascinating facts, participate in mind-blowing experiments, and capture amazing photos at one of Ecuador’s most iconic landmarks.

 

Mind-Blowing Experiments and Cultural Discoveries

The journey begins in San Antonio de Pichincha, home to the equatorial line. The first stop is the Museo Sitio Intiñán, where travelers will experience incredible gravity-defying experiments, learn about ancient indigenous cultures, and understand why the equator is one of the most fascinating places on Earth. From balancing an egg on a nail to witnessing how water drains in different directions, this stop is both educational and fun.

 

The Iconic Middle of the World Monument

Next, the tour heads to Ciudad Mitad del Mundo, where visitors can explore the official monument marking the equatorial line. Walk through interactive exhibits, visit local artisan shops, and take once-in-a-lifetime photos with one foot in each hemisphere. After an unforgettable time at the Middle of the World, the tour concludes back in Quito, leaving travelers with a unique story to tell!
