We loved it, Cuenca is a beautiful city and Angela, the guide was phenomenal. His knowledge of the city and the way to move it made the tour very enjoyable.

We really liked Cuenca. The visit with Viator was great. Our guide was a red-haired little girl (forgive me I don’t remember The Name) super friendly who made us a very pleasant tour, with historical data but at the same time told in an anecdotal way..... My two-hour drive was short. Thank you.
Very well explained and very nice

We made the morning visit, we liked so much so that we repeat at night that it's different. Both guided by Paul. We really liked it. Highly recommended.
Pablo, the guide, managed to combine amenity and exhaustive information

A very enjoyable visit, guided by Pablo, who provided us with a lot of information about Cuenca without sparing irony about the history and clichés of the city.

I recommend these guided tours 100%. My husband and I have been on our own for a few days and we had a wonderful time. It is a charming city. It was a huge influence that the stay was even higher than our expectations, thanks to HUGO and PABLO. With their knowledge, professionalism and attitude, they made CUENCA surprise and delight us. With HUGO we carried out two guided tours. One monumental daytime and one nighttime. We loved it, Hugo was very didactic and documented, and with his spark of humor, he made us take away a very pleasant concept of Cuenca. Also acquire knowledge of it. Regarding Pablo, I would say that he is equally charming. He is a person who likes the work he does. He transmits a very positive energy with his joy and makes you want the guided tour not to end. With him we visited the Enchanted City, Laguna de Uña, source of the Cuervo River. Thanking both HUGO and PABLO made us see Cuenca in another way, from another perspective.

Great tour by Hugo, touring Cuenca in a very entertaining and educational way. We took a Team Building trip with FRV, taking the opportunity to jump on the zip line and visit the city
More than recommended experience

A wonderful experience that Hugo offers us as guide during the visit to the monumental Cuenca. Very, very recommended. I can't think of a better way to learn about the history of the city and its monuments. The guided tour of the Cathedral, also by Hugo, is not only highly recommended, but essential.
