Two unforgettable days with Roberto

5.00First we made the full day tour in Quito, Middle of the World, The virgin and câble car. We were very satisfied and then spent another day with Roberto, in Mindo, watching hundreds of hummingbirds and butterflies in the cloud forest and visiting a chocolate factory. Overall, Roberto is a very good guide: He speaks very well English and his explanations are quite clear. We learned a lot of details about Quito’s and Ecuador’s history. He told us also about fauna, flora and traditions. And last but not least, he is a very good and safe driver too! So it was a really worthy experience to discover Quito and Mindo with him. Many thanks Roberto for these two days we spent with you!
Great way to see Quito

5.00It’s a great way to start seeing Quito. We enjoyed all the marvels (science) of being on the equator. Views of Quito at top of cable car- though this can be weather dependent and our guide was really mindful and changed itinerary around so we could cater to the weather to get a good view from the top. Very knowledgeable and friendly guide and driver. Highly recommended!
We should go.

5.00It was a family tour. I could go anywhere I wanted to go. They responded to my sudden illness. Even families with children can participate with confidence. Experiences at the equator are recommended! I'm really glad I went.
Epic, fun, educational

The perfect way to see more of what Quito has to offer

5.00We had an amazing day and would highly recommend it. Johan was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Ecuadorian history and the environment. He explained everything clearly and made the experience engaging without it ever feeling rushed. The stops were fantastic, especially the Middle of the World, the cable car with its incredible views, and El Panecillo. If you are planning a trip to Ecuador, we would recommend spending at least two or three days in Quito to do it justice, and this tour is a perfect way to see some truly memorable sights (would also recommend at least half a day to do another tour to see the old town). Patricio was a brilliant driver and made us feel very safe throughout the day. Overall, a very well organised tour and a wonderful way to experience Quito. Well worth doing while you are in Quito.
