Our guide, Moses, was excellent. He was friendly and informative and knew many of the plants and wildlife we encountered on our hike. We appreciated his pace with breaks as needed, while still finishing the hike a little early, which left time to visit a museum back in Cuenca. Fantastic experience and an excellent guide!
Tour is a great way to experience Las Cajas and I would highly recommend. Dress in layers! Pedro was an excellent guide. Tour includes a very nice ~2 hour hike, a visit to a lookout (which with the clouds, we couldn't see anything), lunch, and a visit to a valley. It's a very easy, stress-free way to get a feeling for the landscape, which is very beautiful. Our total group was only 3 people, so allows for a more personal tour too.
Dear friends. Thank you very much for leaving your comment about your tour. It was a pleasure for Polylepis Tours and our guide Pedro to help you with this tour to the Cajas National Park. If you need anything in the future, we are at your service. Greetings from Polylepis Tours Ecuador
The guide was very knowledgeable about Cajas, however, I reserved a full day (8 hour) trip and it only lasted 6 hours. That was a bummer. We also only hiked one fairly easy trail, followed by walking up some stairs to a viewpoint with a radio tower. The tour didnt blow me away.
Dear friend. Thank you for your comment. Our guide told us in his report that if you finished a little early since you are in very good shape and the weather was super nice, which made the walk easier. We hope that apart from the fact that you finished your tour earlier, you enjoyed the visit of the Cajas and the guidance of Wilson. Thanks for everything, best regards
The visit was with a cold and rainy day, Diego allowed us to walk for at least an hour and know its ecosystem and beauty.

An excellent excursion. Edison is very competent, he explains a lot, really interesting. I think it is the best guide for this park. Cajas Park is splendid but requires a guide because you get lost in it and you would like to know the different plants you have never seen. On the other hand you have to think about booking the tour in advance to be sure to have it.

Edison was such a knowledgeable tour guide; we learned a ton about the local plants, geology, and ecosystems. He showed us two of the major areas of Cajas and we felt that we got a good feel for the park and all it has to offer. Edison also brought us to a lovely local restaurant. We had a great day!

Hiking through Cajas National Park was an awesome experience! On the car ride there, Eddy already started to share a bit about the history of the park and the region. He would point things out along the way to give insight into the local culture. We had a perfect day for the hike. It took us 3 hours and it was very rewarding. Eddy explained a lot about the history of the trail, and pointed out special plants as we walked along the trail. I was glad to have a guide for this experience as he was able to show us exactly where to go and what was special about the area.

This was one of the most interesting experiences I’ve had in Ecuador! Our guide Adrian was very knowledgeable about the local fauna and flora. We did 2 hikes, one at lower and one at higher altitude. It was amazing to see the huge difference between these 2 places. Both hikes were incredibly beautiful, but not too demanding for people not used to hiking a lot. We finished with a great lunch at a trout farm. Although you can you to the Cajas national park on your own, I would recommend going there with Polylepsis. It makes it way more interesting, because they know the best spots and have a lot of knowledge about the place.
