Amanda picked us up on time and delivered a custom tour of Quito City and surrounding area. She was very knowledgeable and was able to recommend restaurants, as well as sights we'd enjoy. She even provided a few references before we arrived, since it was our first time in Ecuador, and I was a little nervous about the trip. Everything worked out perfectly! Amanda stayed with us for 10 hours, and we were all very satisfied at the end of the day. She also picked us up from the airport at a later date and drove us to Papallacta. I would definitely hire her again!

I met ñato on a bus while I was going to Riobamba, in an attempt to get to the Chimborazo reserve. He was traveling with a group and offered me the option to go with them, even if I wasn't going to climb. It was amazing, one of the best experiences of my life. The place is beautiful and Ñato is a super experience guide, he cooked the meals, and was really respectful and kind. I highly recommend any activity you do with him!!

Katty was our highly educated Galápagos guide, and she is spectacular on many levels. She is fun, funny, kind, knowledgeable, & happy. She has a degree in environmental engineering (I believe) and is a life-long Galápagos local. She knew the shortcuts, processes, best seats, & best plans for EVERYTHING. She gave us insider tips on what to do and where to eat in our spare time. She took great photos and shared them all with us. I cannot recommend her any more highly. ????

We had a great day trip from Quito to Cotopaxi with our guide Daniel. He picked us up from our hotel on time at 8am and drove expertly to Cotopaxi taking a scenery road which allowed us to appreciate the geography of the inter-valley region. The drive took about 1.5 hours. His approach takes you around the volcanoes from all angles. Daniel was truly passionate about Ecuador and very knowledgeable about wildlife and vegetation of the region. He stopped plenty of times for awesome picture opportunities. We hiked from the parking lot (15K ft) to the refuge (16K ft) doing the zig-zag approach and experienced no issues with altitude sickness whatsoever (he stopped by a kiosko where we could buy coca candy and leaves if needed before entering the park). The weather was awful as we ascended, with small hail and dust from the strong winds, but he was patient and set the pace perfectly for us to successfully reach the refuge. We grabbed hot chocolate up in the refuge (2.5 per cup, bring change) and warmed up before going back down. On our way back to Quito, we stopped by an authentic local restaurant around 3pm where we had a soup, a pork dish, and an ice cream. Back to the hotel by 5pm promptly. This is a great experience for a Quito escapade which you should consider if you're looking to do something based off the city.
