    Our experience was wonderful in every way. Cajas National Park is absolutely breath taking. Our guide Edison was very knowledgable on the fauna, flora and geography of the park and made our experience that much incredible. We're very grateful.

  • Great tour with beautiful scenery

    We really enjoyed the half day tour. Communication was excellent and we were picked up from our accommodation right on time. We were very lucky to have beautiful sunny weather so really enjoyed our hike in the national park. The hike was slightly challenging in places due to the altitude (the last bit was uphill, and we hadn't really had any acclimitisation time) but was manageable if you take it slowly. We also did a quick detour to a viewpoint at the highest point of the park on the way back to Cuenca.

  • Once in a lifetime tour of Cajas with Edison!

    My family and I had the most fabulous tour of Cajas National Park with our guide Edison! He was absolutely wonderful - everything you'd want in a guide. He was full of incredibly informative information, and he really made the tour fun! He also did an incredible job taking us on our hike, and was very patient with our group who was very varied in age and hiking experience levels. The best part was when he helped us spot a toucan, and told us all about the different types of birds in the park! I would recommend this tour anytime, especially with Edison!

  • Great nature experience
