About your trip

  

THE ONLY PERSONALIZED, SAFE AND 100% IN ENGLISH Two days tour to the city of CUENCA (The jewel of the south Andes)

TRIP.

Experience the city Of Cuenca in an epic way, safely and without any translation problems with a native citizen from Guayaquil.

Exceptional, immersive experiences!

This was my third experience with Eddie, and as always, he exceeded expectations. A native of Guayaquil, he blends history, personal experience, humor, and hands-on activities to provide an immersive, authentic experience.

You feel much less like a tourist and more like you are on an epic adventure of fun and learning.

He makes each tour unique and engaging, and in spite of how long he’s been a guide, he radiates passion and enthusiasm. The Cuenca tour great exceeded my expectations, and I’ve done tours in Ecuador twice with Eddie and shared the experience different friends, and I learned a lot of new things both times.

Highly recommended!
