    Phenomenal day, got to see the highlights of Cusco and taste Guinea Pig for the first time. A personalised tour in a clean and comfortable new vehicle.

    Sharing time and local experiences as well as the culture of Quito with our local guide made the experience even more special. The traffic was not moving by the end of the day so we made a shared decision to park and walk a bit further than planned. No problem and better than being in the car!

    My friend and I loved this tour! Not only did we enjoy everywhere we visited, but we also learned a ton from our guide Diego. We signed up for the small group tour but ended up being the only ones on it. Highlights included the equator line (amazing!) and the teleferico, which provided incredible views of Quito and the surrounding mountains, and the chocolate tasting (get the brownies). We mentioned that we wanted to try ceviche, and Diego took us to an excellent local restaurant. We were so stuffed that we skipped dinner. I loved every bit of this tour. It is a great way to see a lot in one day.

    Very good overview. Our guide was excellent. Some of what she brought to the tour (the restaurant choice for lunch, chocolate tasting) might vary from guide to guide. Mita del Mondo was better than expected.

    We had the best time on this tour. We went to some amazing and interesting places. Our guide, Jacque Perez, was charming and went out of her way to show us a good time. We would 100% recommend.

    The guide, Juan Pablo, was great with an eight year old-adjusting the itinerary to fit her activity level. Taking the gondola up the side of the volcano was a high light as he had us climb to the swing that overlooks Quito. In the Intinian museum, Juan Pablo, explained different areas to us.

    This tour was fabulous! Diego Ch was our guide and he was unbelievably knowledgeable about the geography, history and plant life of Quito and the surrounding area. He was attentive and accommodating. He was just a pleasure to spend the day with, and we would highly recommend this tour.

    Diego our tour guide was great! He was knowledgeable and very courteous. He also was considerate and accommodating.

    Diego was our guide and he was very informative. Teleferico was our first stop but it was raining and the power was out so we went to Mitad del Mundo then. Very interesting to learn about the middle of the earth. We went back to Teleferico after the sun came out, the ride up the gondola was exciting but the view above was breathtaking, must see in Quito. The manager, Dante was very responsive in email, responded with my concern in 10minutes! Gracias Diego and Dante for making my Quito trip a memorable one.

    You'll get to see the amazing mountainous view of the city from a height. I really enjoyed the old city and the secrets about the equator in thai small tour group.
