Ungaphoswa
Drink coffee and people-watch at Plaza Grande.
A perfect place to sit back, and get a feel for the culture Quito provides.
Ukuhamba-hamba
Taxi is the easiest way to get around.
I opt for the old-school way of waving a taxi down. Please do not pay drivers more than $15 for distances less than 20km. Typically a 10 minute taxi drive will be a few dollars.
