A Truly Memorable Day

Spencer_Q, Aug 2026

It’s a full and well structured day with several stops along the way to break up the driving. The main activity is an hour hike to the basecamp at 16,000 ft. Be in decent shape, drink your cocoa tea and plenty of water and don’t rush-it’s a challenge if you don’t live at altitude.. Our guide was awesome-smoothly transitioning between Spanish and English and made sure we were all OK. It was a truly memorable day and I have the pics to prove it!

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the well-paced itinerary and the different stops along the way. We hope your photos continue to bring back great memories of your adventure in Ecuador. Team Cuenca Bestours

This was a great experience. Our guide Irene / Elena was fantastic, she was knowledgeable, passionate and fun.

Bring warm clothes, a windcheater, a beanie, gloves and hiking stick. Walk really slowly, and breathe deeply .

Response from Host, Feb 2026

Thank you for sharing these helpful tips! You are absolutely right — dressing warmly and being prepared for changing mountain conditions makes all the difference. We also appreciate your advice about walking slowly and breathing deeply. Taking a steady pace allows our guests to better acclimate, enjoy the scenery, and fully embrace the experience.
