It was a cold and blustery day, but the weather seemed to suit the location. Quilotoa Lagoon is a water-filled caldera and the most western volcano in the Avenue of Volcanos. The 2 mile-wide caldera was formed by the collapse of the volcano about 800 years ago. The lake changes color depending on the weather. It can vary from turquoise to green, to even a yellow on some days. Quilotoa Lagoon (Laura Cahill) Quilotoa Lagoon (Laura Cahill)
The indigenous community surrounding the lagoon have started some community based tourism projects horseback rides to the bottom of the lagoon, guided hikes in the area, a market to sell handicrafts and paintings. There are hostels and cafes to stop in and warm up! Quilotoa (Laura Cahill) Horse in Quilotoa (Laura Cahill) Handicrafts shop in Quilotoa (Laura Cahill)
I’m so glad we found AdventureLife. Jess, our planner, was such a pleasure to work with. She readily shared her extensive knowledge about Panama, she offered good suggestions and creative ideas, kept everything organized and handled the details each step of the way.

Erin was easy to work with and very helpful. She was patient and helped us figure out the adventure tour we were hoping for in Belize. Can’t wait to go on this trip!

My travel planner, Jeff, who is on top of his field (based on travel industry awards), is a highly professional, very effective and, at the same time, personally nice individual. What was also critical to me is that he has a first hand experience traveling in the region that I am going to.
On top of that, the customer relations director, Sarah, has personally followed up to make sure I'm happy.
