I had a walking tour of Old Town Quito with Caro. She was an excellent guide, providing info on the sights and history of the country. She also helped me practice my Spanish, which gave me a huge confidence boost. I would highly recommend this tour.

I had a very good hike with them. They took you from Baños to Chimborazo in a van, and from the first refuge you walk 50 minutes to get to the Condor Cocha Lagoon. The guide is very promptly and kind, he answered every question I had. The downhill was so good. The guide is near you in the van just in case. Highly recommended.

A nice way to spend a few hours bike riding on trails; then walking to see wildlife including crocodiles.

This trip was amazing! The day was packed full of adventuring, learning, and driving through the country...there was never a dull moment! The guide was very knowledgeable about everything from the flora and fauna to the history of the areas visited AND was able to explain in English as well! I’d recommend this trip to anyone looking for a tour of Cotopaxi and/or Quilatoa.
