Not Quite as Advertised

Mary_G, Nov 2025

We did not go to the Mindo Cloud forest as advertised. I had hoped to do the cable car that goes through the canopy but our guide said that at the end, the hike to the waterfalls was strenuous (we're both 71). He took us to an alternative location to see orchids and a small waterfall; however, the gentleman that took us did not speak English and our guide did not accompany us to interpret. On the up side, we very much enjoyed the hummingbird garden and the Yumbo Chocolate Factory. Our original voucher stated water would be provided; it wasn't, although that is a minor thing.

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Thank you for sharing your experience. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the hummingbird garden and the Yumbo Chocolate Factory. 🌿✨ We are sorry that the tour did not fully meet your expectations. We always prioritize the safety and comfort of our guests, which is why we personalize each experience. Based on the age and physical condition you mentioned to us, the alternative route was suggested, as the cable car and the hike to the waterfall can be physically demanding. We will make sure to communicate these adjustments more clearly in the future. Regarding the orchid garden, we apologize for the confusion. The driver did not speak English, although our guide was present to assist throughout the visit. We would also like to clarify that water is indeed included and is placed in the vehicle doors for easy access. 💧✔️ Thank you for your helpful feedback. We hope to welcome you again and provide an experience that exceeds your expectations.✨

A wonderful day in Mindo....
