Exploring neighborhoods Quito..

We have 2 full days in Quito at the end of May. Day 2 will be a tour of the city with a private guide.

When we travel, we love to capture the local colors by walking neighborhoods.

If we stay to the daylight hours, don’t take cameras etc, will we be safe to just walk around randomly, getting lost, and seeing how the locals live, eat, and work?

Also, if anyone reading this post happens to have a recommendation for vegetarian restaurants in the Old City, that would be great.

I appreciate your help

thanks.
