Although
it doesn't
have a tourist
office,
Banos is a
vibrant centre
of information
because of
the proliferation
of travel
agencies and
the number
of passing
travellers.
For the latest
information
on Volcan
Tungurahua
and Banos'
status, see
the newspaper
El
Comercio's
web site www.elcomercio.com.
You should
ask your hotel
for details
of emergency
evacuation
procedures.
On the town's
main square,
Parque Central,
you'll find
the Post
Office
and Andinatel
office. Banco
del Pacifico,
Ambato
and Halflants
have a Mastercard
ATM. Internet
cafes
are plentiful.
