Irene es lo máximo! Nos encantó nuestro tour a la Laguna de Quilotoa. Muy organizado y fácil de reservar desde el principio. Nuestra guía, Irene, además de ser sumamente pedagógica, nos mantuvo entretenidos el viaje completo. Tiene una personalidad afable, simpática y agradable que hizo que tanto el camino como todo lo que nos enseñó fuese muy fácil y bien aprovechando. Totalmente recomendado.

Nice day trip Great tour and hike in the Cotopaxi national park. Very competent and friendly guide, lots of information on the way. On criticism is that the lunch takes about 45 min detour, other than that a great experience.

it's worth it! It was a good Tour. We visited a Family and saw how they life there. With all the Products they have. - And Quilotoa was beautiful. But seriously, the way up is not that easy. You can choose Mules or hiking. Be careful with your Lungs, if you are not skilled. 😉 thanks for guiding, Misa.

Great tour experience for a short time in Quito. Jessy and David were lovely and knowledgeable. Jessy and David made this a lovely day for us both. Despite our hotel not being on the list we contacted them prior and arranged for collection from our Airbnb. We were collected promptly and advised it would be a private tour which we much preferred. Jessy was very informative about the local area and encouraged us to try local delicacies.
We stopped a number of places we weren’t expecting to see which added to the experience, and we passed though the areas where Jessy and David were born and grew up, which made us realise how in touch with the local area they both were.

On top of all of this the views were stunning, and although it was a long day overall we felt the time passed by quickly with watching the landscape. Not to mention the waterfalls. I would also recommend the zip lining through the jungle!

If you are interested in not only seeing the beautiful views but hearing about the local area definitely choose this tour. We’ll be back!

Amazing diversity Adrian was highly knowledgeable and very fluent in both Spanish and English. He consistently went above and beyond to make this an amazing trip despite what others would have called challenging weather conditions.
Jimmy the driver is a very experienced South American driver familiar with the local flow and areas. He was consistently safe and efficient.

Highly recommend the tour! Be ready to hike!
