Booked by our lovely hotel, this was a great experience with very friendly and knowledgeable guides. They will adapt to your fitness and confidence levels. Highly recommended.
The guide Joselo was incredible. Lots of information about Cotopaxi and Ecuador in general. I would recommend it to other people.
The guide Joel was excellent, and the driver whose name I don't remember, and the girl with the bicycles... all excellent and highly recommended.
The trip was smooth, the guide Joselo was very attentive, the climb to the Cotopaxi base camp was quick we reached 4906 m, then a bike ride to Lake Limpiopungo and finally we went to lunch, overall the trip is worth it but I felt something was missing.
Excellent tour with Joselo. The best of the experiences among everything visited in Ecuador. The place is beautiful, the activities are excellent, very good transportation and food. The guide was very professional and attentive to all the group's needs
The experience with Joselo and the company was excellent, punctual, attentive, kind. The tour to Cotopaxi was the best, the food, the views, everything beautiful. 100% recommended.
The tour was very good, the hike to the Cotopaxi volcano is an incredible experience! David was very kind and attentive to all the clients and gave us the real tips for the hike and altitude sickness. Highly recommended.
I congratulate the guide Joselo, he really is someone who knows his stuff and explains everything to you and supports you while you are having the experience.
Nice trip, late breakfast is unnecessary and just wastes time which could rather be spent oin the national park
