Travel to Banos


JuteVilla
The small bus terminal is on the north edge of town and is within walking distance to the center and most all hotels. However if you need to catch a taxi, it should cost you less than $1.
There are frequent connections to BaƱos from Quito (3.5 hours, $3.50), Riobamba (2 hours, $2) and Guayaquil (5.5 hours, $7.00). Be aware there are reports of scams on the Amazonas bus company, whereby passengers are ditched in the southern districts of Quito. When ditched passengers then buy another ticket with another company, they are told they have to return to Quito and argue for a refund. Most busses out of Quito will leave from Terrestre Quitumbe, also referred to as Tumbe (located in the far south of the city). The closest bigger town is Ambato (1 hour, $1) and there are very frequent buses between the two towns
