To get to the farm, you will arrive by bus (or taxi) to Calceta, and then you will hop on a Camioneta (Shared pickup truck - $0.50) to get to Sarampión. You can also take a cab to the farm from Calceta ($5.00). Busses From Quito: The Reina Del Camino bus company in Quito has direct busses to Portoviejo that pass through Calceta. There is an ejecutivo (air conditioned with a bathroom) overnight bus that leaves from the mariscal Reina Del Camino office at 11:30 pm. This bus will usually arrive in Calceta between 5:30 and 6:30 am. There are also busses that run during the day that are about 7-8 hours, but these may put you into Calceta after the camioneta service stops running, and will then need to take a cab - tell the cab driver "Sarampión, Finca de Servio Pachard". If you are cominig from any other direction, there are frequent bus service during the day (until about 6:30) between Calceta and Chone, Portoviejo, and Bahia de Caraquez. Once in Calceta: The Camioneta service runs from about 6:30 am until 6:30 pm from a Brown and yellow corner store indicated at number 8 on the map below (click for a larger version of the map or camioneta stop ). The camionetas typically leave for Sarampion when there is enough passengers to make the trip. .   |
