It is not a tour of isolated monuments, but a continuous narrative where each stop explains some of the previous one and prepares the next. That is why Quito is not visited: it is toured, tested and listened to.

Very educational and fun...

Very educational and fun at the same time. Be prepared for the ride on the top deck of the bus…cold and bumpy.

Heather_S, Jul 2026

Great day, easy pace,...

Great day, easy pace, great guide! Wonderful start to our Ecuador trip. Visiting the Middle of the World interactive exhibits and the chocolate tasting were highlights.

Educational and fun!

Great educational experience in the middle of the world. 😁 Be aware that balancing an egg on a nail can be done anywhere in the world. It’s a myth to think that latitude 0 would increase the chances.

Ruth_H, Jun 2026

Excellent host but too touristy!

Our guide, Christian, was wonderful but it focused too much on touristy things and not enough on the downtown. We would have loved to see a market. Talked about the Ecuadorian culture maybe even shopped a little downtown.

We were having trouble...

We were having trouble with the altitude and our driver and guide , Paul and Lucifer, adjusted our tour to meet our needs. They were super accommodating. Paul was an amazing driver, negotiating tight turns, and tiny streets with ease. Lucifer was so knowledgeable about the Country, city, local customs, flora, etc. Both had great senses of humor and were warm, friendly and went above and beyond expectations. We highly recommend using them in your travels.
