5.00Ruben was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable and passionate about his city, and good fun to be with. The Middle Of The World was a real surprise, really interesting and quite unexpected, the TeleferiQo gives great views of the city and the historic old town is just full of wonderful buildings. Put together these make a great day tour Ruben made it all happen.

5.00It was an enjoyable tour with Freddy....he was punctual, friendly and Knowledgeable about Quito. Hos suggestion about the restaurant was good . We had a great trip visiting the original Middle of the World and its museum. We also loved the cable car ride and the little hike/ walk to the top with awesome views of the mountains/ volcanoes. Then we went to historical San Francisco Square and walked about the government historical buildings and had lunch in the beautiful restaurant which Freddy suggested. Also, did a quick chocolate tasting at Yumbos ....their hot chocolate was delicious. We highly recommend this tour!

5.00My wife and I had a wonderful day with Angela and Jamie in Quito. They went above and beyond to make the day memorable and to gain a unique understanding of the city and history of Ecuador. They had set reservations for us at a local restaurant (with live entertainment) as well as a chocolate factory with a special tasting session. We would highly recommend anyone to take advantage of Angela and Jamie for a tour.
Freddy Was Great

5.00It was an absolute pleasure to walk around the city and countryside with Freddy. Not only did we learn a lot about all of the places we visited, but we also learned a lot about local life and culture. We even had the pleasure to learn a lot about the adventures of our guide. Freddy is such an interesting man. I never once felt like Freddy was trying to hurry through the tour. And in the end, he gave us some extra time on the tour and we ended up getting a tour that was even a couple hours longer than originally planned. What a wonderful day and Freddy made it great. Definitely a great value having the private tour in a really nice vehicle. We will come back with our kids and do this again.

It’s always a great experience when you can visit a city with locals, and they definitely elevated our time here. 10/10 would recommend and book again!
Incredible Way to Experience Quito

5.00A great way to experience many different places in beautiful Quito. Ruben was a fantastic guide taking me everywhere from walking down the center of the world to seeing the city from above and walking around the old town learning about the buildings, life, and history of the city. Lunch was delicious local food he recommended I try while here followed by a chocolate tasting that you have to try. The tour is also flexible as needed based on what you want to see or do.
