5.00My friends and I had 24 hours in Quito before heading to Galapagos. The private tour was exactly what we were looking for! Our guide, Freddy, was local, very knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. We saw highlights in Old Town including a chocolate testing, rode the cable car, and visited the Middle of the World. We were also able to arrange an Airport Transfer the next day with the company, which was extremely convenient and a fair price. Highly recommend!
A must have tour

5.00We enjoyed our tour with Freddy seeing highlights in Quito and Mitad del Mundo. Freddy was flexible and catered the tour to our interests. We toured the Basílica del Voto Nacional and climbed up stairs to a beautiful view point of Quito. Freddy was patient with us as we shopped for a while at a local artisan market area. He also made a good recommendation for lunch - we were able to try some delicious traditional Ecuadorian dishes. Lastly, we toured the Intiñan Equator Museum, which had many interesting exhibits. Definitely recommend this tour!
Great tour!

Fantastic Tour of Quito

5.00Our tour with Angela and Jaime was wonderful! They are the perfect guides. Angela is from Ecuador and Jaime originally from Canada, and they both have lived in Quito for many years and really love the country and the city, which is beautiful. We walked throughout the cobblestone streets of the old town, toured amazing churches, tasted some of the finest chocolate in the world, had a fantastic lunch at a local restaurant, did a little shopping, and stood on the equator. It was a perfect day highlighted by their in-depth knowledge of the history, and easy movement in their comfortable car. We would highly recommend booking this trip for an amazing day with some outstanding guides.

5.00I highly recommend this tour. Angela and Jamie took us to the Virgin of El Panecillo statue, then Centro Historico de Quito, including La Ronda, two important churches, and Independence Square. We had an incredible artisanal chocolate tasting at Yumbos Chocolate at the Plaza de San Francisco. Angela is full of knowledge about Quito and explained the historical significance of everything we saw. We had a traditional lunch of encebollado (tuna stew) and ceviche along the way to the Museo de Sitio Intiñan at the equator. The museum features interesting and fun historical exhibits, scientific experiments, and gardens. Angela and Jamie are wonderful guides with tons of current and historical information. They are friendly and easy-going. I'm so glad we took this tour!
