  1. Great post! It is very informative! I think I have it the same way as you have it with the swing – terrified and thrilled! 😉 Thanks for sharing!

  2. This looks like SO much fun! I’m totally adding this to my bucket list! Thanks for all the tips!

  3. I had no idea this was a thing! It looks absolutely amazing and I’d like to believe that I would do it but to be honest I’m pretty sure I would chicken out! Guess we’ll find out when I get to Ecuador….

    1. Haha I thought I was going to chicken out too, especially because I almost died from rappelling that morning. But go big or go home! PS I puked after if it makes you feel better lol 🙂

    1. I agree! I wish I’d gotten clearer skies but the weather is unpredictable in the mountains. Still an amazing experience!

  4. My friend and I are going to Quito in February and are looking forward to trekking to the Swing!! Do you know what time the Swing “opens”? We arre thinking of leaving Quito really early in the morning and getting to Banos around 8:30am.

    1. Buses leave as early as 5:45am so I believe they open as early as 6:30am. You will definitely be fine at 8:30!

  5. Do you know how to find out about the schedule of the bus coming back ?

    1. The return times are 8am, 1pm, 4pm, and 6pm but it will vary depending on how many buses are running that day. I would say the 1pm and 4pm buses for sure.
