THE EXPLORER

This is where you stock up on camping, climbing and trekking gear. The store sells its own brand as well as the famous North Face brand. If you're planning a trip to the Amazon or the Galapagos, you'll find plenty of suitable clothing here. Anti-mosquito shirts, quick-drying exploration trousers and other essential wetland accessories are king here, but beware, prices are relatively high, as most of the products are imported and subject to heavy taxes
