Baños & Amazon 4-day tour from Cuenca or Quito

Ecuador’s natural beauty is incredible but having an expert explain its history, culture, and local intricacies brings it to another level. Wilson, our well rounded tour guide, answered questions from Botany and Geology to the indigenous communities history, to many current topics. Javier, made sure every little detail was catered to our needs and Wilson as well as Pedro (our awesome driver) delivered everything above expectations. Highly recommended!

I can’t imagine a better tour experience. A private tour with an extremely well-informed, friendly and bilingual guide. We visited places we never would have found on our own. We learned about Ecuadorian history, cultures, ecology, and politics from our very knowledgeable guide, who also knew of many small local businesses to visit, from restaurants and craft shops to an ethnobotanical park and wildlife reserves. Javier was very willing to adjust the itinerary to accommodate our interests too. It was like traveling around with an Ecuadorian friend!

Sebastian is a wonderful guide and a great ambassador for Cuenca. We learned so much from him. Time well spent.

The initial contact via email with Bestours was excellent. Emails were replied to promptly and queries received detailed explanations. They were exceptionally tuned into the interests of the customer. Our tour started at Guayaquil where we were picked up to visit Ingapirca on the way to our base at Cuenca. Our guide Javier was very knowledgeable and pleasant. The change of guide to Sebastian the next day was explained and we found him equally knowledge and accommodating for our tours over the next days. He was very flexible as he discovered things that we were especially interested in. We really appreciated this. The tour was arranged so that we gradually became accustomed to the higher altitude and we loved our walk in the Cajas National Park. We loved our whole experience of Ecuador.
