We went on a day trip to Cajas NP with Gorenzo as our guide. He was very knowledgable about the flora and fauna and history of the area and made the day a joy! Although you can take the bus and some hikes you can do alone we felt that having a guide allowed us to get there and back very easily and to see parts of the park we wouldn’t have done if we used public transport. Lunch was delicious also.

My husband and I had a wonderful trip hiking a portion of the Inca Trail and visiting the Ingapirca Ruins. Our guide, Luis, was exceptional and the scenery spectacular. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, and we learned a lot from him about recent and ancient Ecuadorian history and culture.

We had 2 days based from Cuenca to visit Ingapirca and Cajos park then we went to Quito via Chimbazaro with a night in Riobamba, on to Banos then on to Quilotoa and the next day Cotopaxi. Louis was our guide and driver and was engaging, knowledgeable and very enthusiastic. He was the perfect ambassador for Ecuador and we really enjoyed his company and encouraging approach to all we saw and did along the way. The standard of accommodation was good and in Riobamba excellent. The last day Louis returned to Quenca and Lincoln was our guide for Cotopaxi, he was also excellent and made for a great day out. This bespoke tour was really fabulous and was made even more enjoyable by Louis being such a great travelling companion which gave us such a wonderful insight into the sights, culture and food of this wonderful country. Highly recommended!
