Amazing day with Daniel

We spent the day with Daniel and our driver Ricardo routing around Quito with stops at cable car, Basilica, and the equador. They even pickup and drop off at our hotel by the airport as an extra peek! Daniel was an excellent guide and shared many details about Equador history and architecture. He truly loves guiding and answering questions. His knowledge of the city seemed endless. His English was also very clear .. Even people in the back could hear him . I would highly recommend this tour!!

Quito from above … very interesting tour

We had some very nice and interesting Hours with Christian, who showed us Quito from above and knew almost everything about the middle of the world. The Time was flying by.

Perfect Start to our Ecuadorian Adventure! 🇪🇨

The perfect way to start our Ecuadorian Adventure! Our Guide, Christian, was absolutely FANTASTIC! ✨ What an incredible day in Quito! 🌎🚠 We visited the Equator and rode the gondola to the top of the city, where the views were absolutely breathtaking. We are especially grateful for our outstanding guide, who made the experience so meaningful. His knowledge of Ecuadorian history, culture, and the significance of the Equator brought everything to life for our family. From standing at the “Middle of the World” to looking out over Quito from high above the mountains, this was a day filled with wonder, learning, and unforgettable memories. 🇪🇨✨

Best private tour in town, hands down

Private tours are great and this was fit that criteria perfect. Daniel was able to pick up directly at hotel and drive around the city. He was very informative on local history and neighborhoods. Because this is private you can take as long or little time needed. Daniel has several areas he can take you to depending on your time and adventure level. Would recommend this to anybody wanting to get away from the bus tours and really have that experience with a local.

Fun tour for our family aged 12-76.

Great experience! Daniel was a wonderful tour guide. The equator explanation and experiments were fun for our three generation family. I would highly recommend it. The cable car ride was good but you MUST walk all the way to the swing in the sky. It was totally worth it.

Fascinating experience

We had an excellent guide, Mauro, who took us to the Teléferico in the morning because the weather was perfect. Others should know that where the cable car ends at 3,000 meters, there is still a hike of another 1,400 meters to the summit. It was well worth the exertion and the views were spectacular. The second stop was Museo di Intañan where a guide taught us all about the equator. We loved it. Our lunch at Calima gave us the opportunity to try some local foods. It was excellent. Mauro was so kind, patient and gracious throughout the day. We would highly recommend him.

The whole visit with...

The whole visit with Christian was lovely. We visited both sites for the Mitad del Mundo (I find the 'real' one a bit more complete than the 'historical' one, albeit the latter is much more grandiose, and more prone for photos, if that's what you're into). The way up the TeleferiQo and the short hike up there was great to. Magnificent view on whole of Quito. Everything was well organized, Christian even showed up a few minutes early, and guided us through all visits with many info and small facts. Just beware that if the weather turns while you're on top of, or inside the cable car, you might be stuck there for some time as it doesn't operate in bad weather.
