Fabulous Tour of Quito Area!

We had the great fortune of Adriana for our tour and can’t imagine a better experience. She was on time for our pickup and was an excellent driver the entire time with her. She shared a wealth of knowledge about Quito, about Ecuador, food, culture, environment, etc.. She was a great communicator that always checked to make sure we were doing ok or if we needed anything. Our first stop was for a walk on a scenic trail leading to a waterfall. We learned quit a bit about various plants and trees, as well as some of their uses. The second stop was the highlight of the day. We spent time at the Las Cotingas Bird Reserve where we were able to view toucans, tanagers and a variety of hummingbirds. We were able to feed hummingbirds and allow them to land on our hands and fingers. It was an experience we won’t forget. A third stop had us at.a butterfly farm where we were able to see a variety of butterflies progressing through various stages of metamorphosis. Afterward we enjoyed a fabulous local lunch, followed by a sampling of wines and local chocolates. On the drive back to our hotel we stopped at the Mitad del Mundo for a few pics at the equator. We had an awesome experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour and Adriana as your guide!

The best tour...

The best tour I loved this tour! Ines was knowledgeable and so helpful throughout the day. I did the longer hike and the waterfall was totally worth it! I had a good amount of time at each place, and having the hummingbirds eat out of our hands was so cool.

Cloud Forest An Unexpected Experience

This tour included a unique experience that we really enjoyed. Getting to feed the humming birds from our hands with so many varieties was awesome. We also got to see a toucan and some agouties. At the beginning of the tour we decided to do a hike to a waterfall instead of another option to see some plants and birds. We ended the tour with chocolate &wine tasting. Andres was very knowledgeable!

Thanks Zoraida for your review. Have a great time in Ecuador

An unforgettable private tour of Ecuador

I travelled through Ecuador with my two daughters on a private tour, guided by Andrés and Mateo. They were both knowledgeable, reliable, flexible and genuinely caring. They showed us the incredible variety of Ecuador, from the Andes and Cotopaxi to Baños and the Amazon. Along the way, they shared their knowledge of the country, introduced us to local food and culture, and took us to special places we would never have discovered ourselves. They also adapted the programme whenever necessary and made sure that all three of us could enjoy the trip at our own pace. When one of my daughters became ill in the jungle, everything was immediately rearranged and a doctor was waiting for us at our next accommodation. Their quick response and personal care made us feel completely safe. Andrés and Mateo were much more than guides and drivers; they felt like trusted travel companions. Thanks to their warmth, humour and love for Ecuador, our journey became truly unforgettable. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a personal and worry-free private tour of Ecuador!
