Adventures with Ismael! Let's do it again!

Kristin_M, Feb 2026

Ismael Paredes is a delightful person and easy to spend a day with. He was on time to pick us up at the airport, and did his best to keep our busy day on schedule while also providing us with options. Ismael is very well informed and communicates enthusiastically about his country, answering all our questions. Quito drivers are fairly aggressive, but I felt safe with Ismael's driving. When we come back to South America we will seek out Ismael for any of our activities.

Beth_S, Sep 2023

Ishmael was an incredible guide. He communicated with me before our tour to introduce himself and ask if I had any questions. We spent a busy day at a relaxing pace around Quito and I learned some of the history and culture facts. He was vey knowledgeable and easy to talk to with excellent English. I would highly recommend him to family and friends or any looking for a small group private and personal adventure in Ecuador. It was the perfect way to begin my trip!
