    From the moment I sat in the car to the moment I returned to my hotel, this was by far one of the best experiences I have had. The knowledge my guide shared and the wonderful trip to the Middle of the World, "Mitad del Mundo" and the Intiñan Museum then on to Cochasqui (the Pyramids of Ecuador), followed by authtentic Ecuadorian food at the foot of Cochasqui was out of this world. It is a very special place, made even more special by such an amazing guide with such knowledge of the ancient ways. A very authentic experience. I would highly recommend you book this unforgettable guide.

    Quito is a very nice city...

    Quito is a very nice city to visit but not safe at night. I toured Cotapaxi volcano with guide Vinny which was an incredible experience.

    Best day exploring the highland region

    Courtney_S, Feb 2025
    Vinnie was an excellent tour guide! We were only in Quito for one day and with his tour, we fell in love with the country and can’t wait to come back! He knew so much about every area we traveled to and treated us like family. We would highly recommend this tour.

    I asked for an intense agenda and Vinnie met it. Had a great time and he was very patient with me and my trouble with the altitude. Had a great time. Highly recommend.

    It was a wonderful experience to visit a country and have a local guide to show you things you would never find on your own. Kathy was a fabulous guide!

    Edison was a great guide. Seeing the waterfall and learning more about the Ecuadorian people/culture were the highlights of the day.

    A Family Affair

    My fiancé and I had the pleasure of exploring beautiful parts of Ecuador led by the best tour expert, Edison. We were in touch before the tour to discuss places we would love to see. And Edison showed it all and more! La Casa del Arbol, Ruta de las Cascadas, La Mano de la Pachamama, Cable Car Ride, had an amazing lunch, even went denim shopping before going home! Edison treated us as family and we will definitely keep in touch with him. Thank you for making our visit to Ecuador a memorable one, Edison!
