About

Begin your Experiment by landing in Ecuador’s vibrant capital, Quito, where you’ll explore the 16th-century gold-adorned churches and colonial architecture of the Old Town.

Dive into the rich biodiversity of the Mindo Nambillo cloud forest, part of the unique Chocó Andino region, home to over 600 bird species. Get hands-on with conservation efforts by planting native species, preparing soil and compost, or participating in forest maintenance.
