Good trip, great guide. Eddy knew his Inca history.

Não vejo forma melhor de conhecer o país. Todos os lugares visitados são lindos. Apesar do clima, que não ajudou no Parque Cotopaxi, nada temos a reclamar deste tour. Tudo muito bem organizado e nosso guia, Wilson, foi muito prestativo, atencioso e com bastante conhecimento, não só dos pontos visitados, mas também de tudo que vimos pelo caminho. Foram ótimos dias viajando pelo país. Recomendo a todos que tem pouco tempo e desejam conhecer um pouco mais deste país lindo!!! E peçam pelo Wilson, ele é demais!!! Obrigada a agência por tudo e obrigada ao guia, pela paciência, atenção e companhia.

Dois lugares únicos e imperdíveis. A montanha Nariz do Diabo é algo indescritível e espero que logo o trem volte a operar, porque deve ser um passeio incrível. E as ruínas, são bem conservadas e com bastante história dos primeiros indígenas do país, bem como dos Incas. Wilson, nosso guia, foi bastante atencioso e explicou cada parte do sítio. Recomendo 100% a visita, o guia e a agência! Uma bela forma de conhecer um pouco mais deste país.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time exploring the amazing parts of Ecuador. We experienced a trip learning about the history, culture and socio economics of Ecuadorm. We explored the outdoor biodiversity and enjoyed the traditional food and rituals. Our guides were outstanding with their stories, insights and always safe. Felt well cared for and had a lot of flexibility based on weather and circumstances. Thank you Javier for everything and taking such good care of our family. Thank you Luis for sharing so much history.

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!
