Baños Full Day Tour from Quito Including Entrances and Activities

Ernesto was awesome!! First and foremost, I have to give mad props to our guide. He was so kind and enthusiastic and the man had knowledge and answers for everything. Very cool guy. He took pictures on his camera for the other traveler and myself throughout the day and it was so kind of him to share those pics. The drive from Quito is long, but pretty. When you reach Banos, the views just get better. The cable car above the waterfall was thrilling. The Devil's Cauldron waterfall was so pretty. He gives you an option on which way you would like to hike it, but keep in mind there are a lot of steps either way if you have wobbly knees. Buy the mangos at the end! One dollar for a refreshing snack. He took us to an adventure park where both of us on the tour jumped off a high bridge. It was thrilling and for me, very affordable compared to USA prices. You can also pay a little extra to get photos taken. Lunch was in town. He shows you a few options to choose from, but we both opted for the local mercado where locals were selling cheap and delicious local cuisine. We had the fish soup and it was so yummy!! Also, a juice. I highly recommend this mercado over all the single restaurants he shows. Finally he takes you to the famous swing on the hill. It's very fun and charming. We didn't get to see the volcano because of the clouds, but hopefully you will! It's a long day, but it's so fun. Go with Ernesto. He's top notch. And don't forget, gratuity is appreciated for the locals! :)
