El Chorro waterfalls and Busa lake tour from Cuenca

Excellent experience and Sebastian was an excellent guide who so kindly made adjustments in timing to best align to our priorities. Absolutely recommend!

Great tour of Waterfall and other spots. Had to the opportunity to learn interesting details about Ecuador!

Great experience and full of insightful information. Good at Don Mario’s was really good!

Great guide; Nice day trip to a waterfall and a lake; Delicious food as part of the tour next to the lake; In regards to scenery there are more interesting things to do, e.g., Cajas national park

Diego was an awesome guide! Just a wealth of information on the flora, geology, and history of the region. He spoke very good English. Overall a great day and would highly recommend this tour.

Great day tour and way to see the Ecuadorean countryside. El Chorro is a beautiful waterfall and Lake Busa was very nice. Edi was a great guide who could answer any question and had really interesting stories about the country and area. I leaned a lot! When we went, it was only our group so ended up being a private tour. If between Cajas or this one, I would recommend doing the Cajas day trip first since the scenery is amazing but if you have a another day, this one is also very good and gives a different look at the area around Cuenca, which has a lot of beautiful landscapes.

Sebastian was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. His passion for Ecuador truly shone through as he shared so much fascinating history and insight about the country. The sites we visited were stunning, and the waterfall in particular was absolutely breathtaking. If you’re open to a bit of light hiking, not too strenuous, this tour is a fantastic choice.

My driver was Diego Parra of Polylepsis Tours, which I booked through Viator. When Diego learned of my difficulty in walking, he adjusted my private tour accordingly. I was grateful to only walk up to the first of three Chorro waterfalls at Girón and to see Busa Lake without walking around the whole lake. He even provided a walking stick, which I failed to bring along, and which is so helpful to people who are not yet adjusted to the high altitude In addition to those sights and the delicious meal at Don Mario's restaurant at Busa Lake, Diego also took me to the museum "Casa de los Tratados" (where a peace treaty was signed on a table with a leather top) and the scenic view of the memorial of the war between Peru and Ecuador. As an English teacher in the USA of Spanish-speaking students who come from many countries, I am always happy to learn as much as possible about the culture and history of the places I visit. Diego was very knowledgeable and provided much information about the history and culture of Girón, Busa, and the surrounding areas.

Diego was the best guide, full of knowledge and professionalism as well as great sense of humor. The Giron Falls are beautiful!

Diego was a great guide! He had so much information, was kind and professional, a great day! Falls were beautiful!
