This popular tour takes you to the site of the Equator line (latitude zero). The city of Quito lies just 22km from the equator line, so it is easy to visit in ½ day. On the Equator Line,  otherwise known as Mitad del Mundo,  you can visit the official equator monument for your perfect photos with one foot in each hemisphere. Here you will also learn about the important 1736 Geodesic Mission scientific study. Close by, and on the "real" equator line, you can perform fascinating Equator scientific tests at Inti Ñan museum, as well as other fun activities.
