A British couple from just outside London, England. We got married in 2018 and decided instead of a honeymoon we’d travel the world together. We saved money and travel points, quit our jobs, rented our house out and boarded a one way flight in 2020. We started this KZread channel to share our experiences with friends, family and anyone who plans to travel to the places we’re visiting. We leave TKT tips/facts in our vlogs to give information that we wish we’d had before visiting. We hope you find our content fun & useful :)

Suenan bien, pero en la vida real parecían tan ruidosos que pensamos que sería demasiado hablar.
Changing of the guards was amusing! Need Patience!!!🤣you’re right we ARE spoilt- in many ways! Cathedral bells were hilarious! You couldn’t talk without one chiming!!!🤣Views were amazing but couldn’t have faced the narrow staircase up & down!!!😮 Courtyard WAS lovely esp all the plants. Basilica IS grand! Seen similar but does look huge. Steps outside look rather precarious! Bet views worth it tho!?! Great to get to see the drone shots! Certainly got views that day didn’t you!!! Panicillo statue is interesting & getting the chance to see the view from the top of ‘her’ was a bonus! Seeing the lights at night was great too! Thanks enjoyed it all.

It was an all round pretty entertaining day, met some lovely people along the way and battled through the cathedral bells all day! 😂
Buen video, espero pasen bien chicos, en la hermosa ciudad de Quito.
Friendly advice guys: lower the passive aggressive snarky remarks.. every single country has down sides. Think there’s nothing wrong in mentioning them but it gets annoying and really fast the constant criticism.. you are freaking traveling, you are blessed, enjoy!

We loved Quito, nothing passive aggressive here at all.
This is the oldest capital in America. In second 2 of the video you can see the bases of the Government Palace. These stones were part of Inca constructions.

Thank you ☺️
We were in Quito in July 2016. The changing of the guards was an elaborate ceremony, complete with uniformed cavalry riding their horses into Plaza Grande. I'm not sure why you saw that somewhat lackluster ceremony.

Oh wow, that’s kind of more what we’d hoped for. The tour guide nearby was showing a group around and they seemed surprised too.
I am glad to see that this video is from 2022, before the violence and crime escalated to the crisis it is now.

Yes, we used Uber from the airport, Quito airport is great it has a good/resting section attached which has wifi to order Ubers and is lovely.
Maybe they meant 11:30.

Well it was the changing of the guards that they did that Monday at 11am which is the time they do it every week apparently 😅
Quito is the highest. La Paz is not the capital of Bolivia.

True but it is the de facto capital whilst Sucre is the historical capital. Either way they both sure are high! 😮💨

@@shawnsavage9341 no, we’re just pronouncing that correctly for British English. American English pronounced it Aluminum instead of aluminium.
