Zambiza is a few miles outside of downtown Quito, so there’s a high chance you’ll be doing a decent amount of driving. If you want to use Zambiza as a base to discover the city and its surrounds, go for a smaller car. There’s nothing like a compact for squeezing into those tight downtown parking spaces. Alternatively, if you’re moving away from all the hustle and bustle, go for something with a little more power and storage. Not many travelers regret spending that little bit extra on a premium or a full-size car.
