The tour was very well organised, professional and most importantly, fun and informative! Eddy knows the tour like the back of his hand and was sharing a lot of knowledge and interesting facts during the tour. He is a very passionate guide and you could feel the proudness towards Ecuador whenever he speaks. One of the best guides we ever had and we can definitely recommend this tour 100%.

I’m so glad that I booked this trip! I had a wonderful time with Edison. This well worth my time and every dollar spent. I like how you’re picked up at your hotel or Air BnB. The tour group was very small and ideal in my opinion. So much information was shared that I was taken aback by the rich history of the region. I learned a lot so this was right up my alley. Edison is very personable and doesn’t mind if you ask a lot of questions. He is very proud of being Ecuadorian, as he should be. I would do this tour again. I highly recommend the tour. Oh, do the tour where lunch is included. You will eat a very traditional Ecuadorian meal.

I signed up for a private tour to Ingapirca Ruins. My tour guide was Pedro, he had great knowledge of the history of the ruins, the small towns that we passed by along the way and even stopping to show me how the Ecuadorian dish , guy (roast pig) was cooked and how different parts get cooked. We had a great hike at the ruins and surrounding areas. Pedro was a great communicator and able to interact with the locals so I was able to take some photos. I’m happy with Pedro, he was such a great guide and making the trip amazing.
Excellent guide and beautiful place

An unforgettable Ingapirca day tour! I joined the full-day Ingapirca tour with two other travelers, and it was fantastic from beginning to end. Our guide, Sebastian, made the experience truly special — his deep knowledge and engaging storytelling brought the ancient Inca and Cañari history to life. It really felt like a journey back in time. Everything was perfectly organized, and we enjoyed every moment of the trip. I can highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cuenca — it’s an absolute must if you want to understand more about Ecuador’s rich past and culture.

José and Cristian were a great team. Cristian was our guide and he did not disappoint. He shared an amazing amount of information about local culture, Cañari and Inca cultures/history, and their impact on modern Ecuador. The sites were more than worth the time. Money well spent, and personally, a very enriching experience. Thank you gentlemen.
