By Train Through the Andes

From what I heard, the trip goes from Quito to Duran, that is close to Guayaquil and the trip last 4 days.

You make several stops in different towns an places like Cotopaxi to sleep, eat and do some tourism.

It just started this past week (Quito to Guayaquil) and is very expensive.

One post says prices are reasonable and one says very expensive. I suppose cost is rather subjective. Could we please get an actual dollar figure so that we could determine on our own whether or not it's "reasonable" or "expensive"?

I didn't know there was a train from Quito to Guayaquil, so this is very interesting. I didn't plan on visiting Guayaquil since people make it out to be a dirty, industrious, crime-ridden city, but others talk favorably of it and a train ride sounds nice.

$1270

Holy f********. I think I'll stay in Quito.

Actually, the introductory rate will be $990.00 and remember this is a 4 day journey.
