5.00My family and I had a wonderful time on our private tour of Quito! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and kind, catering to our needs as necessary. Learning about the history of this city was fascinating and opened our eyes to the dynamic culture. Additionally, our guide considered when certain sites would be busy so we could beat the crowds and have a more enjoyable experience. Overall, we highly recommend this company. Thank you for everything!

5.00Although we were staying by the airport, they were able to pick us up and give us the full tour. Our guide Juan Carlos spoke great English and was a great guide. He was able to personalize the trip for us even finding a restaurant for lunch that was able to cater to our keto diet. Our driver Miguel Angel was amazing at getting us where we needed to go and always was waiting for us when we finished each stop. I would highly recommend this tour. They were great

5.00Juan and Miguel were a wonderful team. Juan’s knowledge of Quito and Ecuador was impressive, and he shared his enthusiasm for this beautiful country with interest, humor, and sincere appreciation. He listened to and answered our questions and attended to our interests and needs with kindness. He was professional in every way, and we were delighted with our day with him. Our driver, Miguel, was equally wonderful- safe, attentive, and prompt. An impressive duo! Our thanks for such a fun, informative day exploring Quito.

5.00Good comprehensive tour of Quito. It was a cloudy day and although the order of places visited was changed the cablecar had to be dropped due to poor visibility. Guide and driver both very good.
