It was the best experience of my trip around Ecuador. This magnificent volcano is a must see. The national park is so well kept and safe. And the views and landscapes are so serene and gorgeous. We made it to the Basecamp at 4800 Mt and our guide made sure we were all doing OK while hiking up the trail to Basecamp. I can confidently say we all had an unforgettable experience. Do keep in mind sometimes the weather will not allow for pictures of the volcano, in our case we were blessed as the skies cleared up as we were ascending and we got to see Cotopaxi in all its glory. The hike is an, intermediate level. Make sure you wear a knitted cap as it gets really windy and sunglasses to protect you from the glare. Other than that. Just embrace it. Loved it!

Our trip was excellently planned! We chose a private tour for our family of 7. Given the age differences (senior citizens, young adults and pre-teen kids), it was a challenge to make sure everyone enjoyed the day, but the team at Ecuador Family Tours was ready for the challenge. Gabby was in constant communication and helped plan an itinerary that made everyone's day in Quito a fabulous one! Definitely would recommend them.

Gabby and her family were so sweet and professional! Johnny did all the transfers from airport to hotel and back, even picking us up "after hours" at a restaurant to make sure we returned safely to our hotel. Gabby is an extremely educated and interesting guide who treats her clients like family, giving them insight into all aspects of whatever tours she's arranged and saving them money wherever it's possible. Can't say enough about Ecuador Family Tours!
