Notes:

  • Prices in USD; table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Quito's altitude (2,850 m / 9,350 ft) and mountainous terrain can affect travel times significantly.
  • Rush hour traffic, especially between 7:00–9:00 and 17:00–20:00, can double journey times.
  • Authorized taxis use fixed zone-based pricing; always confirm the fare before departure.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
