  • Great Combo Tour

    Both days were enjoyable and fun! The overnight hotel accommodation was very nice and quiet. The schedule for both days seemed to run on time (pick ups, drops offs, etc). The first day in Cotopaxi the weather was terrible, but we made the best of it. Our guide Joselo was informative and patient with all in the group. The second day was even better. The laguna is absolutely beautiful and must see! Once again our guide David communicated very well, kept us informed of the day's activities, and was available to answer any questions. I did this to save some time as opposed to doing to separate day trips back and forth to Quito. Both climbs will likely be a bit challenging for beginners, but the downhill mountain biking is not bad at all.

    Joel, Anthony, and Alex were excellent! They kept us informed while also keeping a light and low stress environment. Also appreciate them making sure everyone could reach the lagoon and back as well as reach the refuge. Bus, accommodations, and food were excellent. Very good value, no complaints.

    I had an amazing experience at Cotopaxi. Guide Joel knows his trade very well and told a lot of fascinating anecdotes about the history of Quito and the different mountains.

    I had an excellent experience with Community Tour Cotopaxi Quilotoa. The day before, my guides, Edouardo and his colleague, were fantastic hosts—friendly, well-organized, and very engaging 🤩. Their English was clear and easy to understand, and they managed the group with confidence while always staying approachable and kind. The whole tour was smooth, enjoyable, and very well guided. Highly recommended!

    I had such an incredible experience visiting Cotopaxi and Quilotoa. It was truly one of the highlights of my trip. I loved the adventure. From start to finish, everything was so well organized. The transportation was smooth, comfortable, and honestly relaxing enough that I was able to take a nap during the rides, which says a lot. Huge shoutout to Alex, our driver, who made us feel completely safe the entire time and also was the protector of our belongings. We had 2 different guides, Joel and David, were absolutely amazing, so kind, patient, funny, and knowledgeable. I learned so much on this trip. They made the whole experience enjoyable and never made it feel overwhelming, even for someone like me who isn’t super athletic. They had amazing tips on supplies needed and what to expect. They also did a great job answering all of the questions we had. They really knew how to keep the group motivated while still making it fun and lighthearted. We had a stop for breakfast and lunch at a family owned restaurant (at least I think). The food was also surprisingly delicious and a great added touch to the whole experience. Overall, I can’t recommend this tour enough, 10/10! If you’re considering visiting Cotopaxi and Quilotoa, do it. It’s an unforgettable experience, and with an amazing team like Alex, David, Joel, and Frank, you’ll be in the best hands

  • 2 day Andes Explorer Amazing Tour

    We did a 2 day tour to Cotopaxi and Quilotoa, with Ecosportour, it was a great experience and father visit two beautiful places in Ecuador with stunning landscapes. Our second day Anthony guide and first day Alex driver were very friendly and attentive to us. Joel and Rami also had good care. Something that was a plus for me is that they don’t push you for time and are well organized to fulfill all activities. The hotel where we stayed in Machachi (Sakiwa house) had excellent service, food and very clean. The owner was super friendly. The whole tour was certainly exceptional as well as the meals included. My only recommendation is that on the day of the tour to Cotopaxi (which was the first day) we expected a little more time in the national park as we left at 2 pm, however otherwise I really recommend doing this tour, we are very happy with the attention of the guides and drivers of both days. And as a star, on day two of the tour the company gave me a birthday cake and it was a super nice surprise, which I thank you so much💗🫶🏼Thank you so much!

  • Between volcanoes and landscapes: My day in Quilotoa

    I had a wonderful experience on my trip to Quilotoa Lagoon. The day started with a delicious breakfast at the hotel and excellent organization. During the tour, Anthony our guide shared very interesting facts about Mejia the valley of the 9 volcanoes, which made the journey even more special. We also visited a local community and a viewpoint with amazing views. Getting to Quilotoa was stunning; the color of the lagoon is unique and perfect for photos. Anthony was always on the lookout for the group, especially in the down and up. We finished with a delicious lunch and a very comfortable return to Quito thanks to Ramiro, who handled very carefully. Thank you both for this lovely experience! With love: Nicole:)

    Really great 2 days, started with Cotopaxi and went to Quilotoa the next day. They arranged a hotel for 1 night too and it was a very nice place. The tour guide was helpful too.
