Powerful Cotopaxi, Guide Irene spectacular - The experience in the Cotopaxi was wonderful!!!
I could have gone unguided but thanks to the Quito Tours Bus service, and especially the Irene Guide, the experience was simply spectacular.
Irene, your love for what you do is conveyed in every moment of the tour, making the experience really become fun, learning and especially feeling the fraternal reception and guidance of who shares infinite joy in full sense, I was guided to rediscover my happiness.
May God and life allow you to continue doing what you do and in the special way that guides the lost of happiness in this world lol.
Thank you Totals!

A really good guide makes all the difference in climbing Cotopaxi - Climbing Cotapaxi through volcanic grit and rubble would be challenging even without a strong wind, plus rain, sleet and snow. Our guide Josué, helped in every way. He was knowledgeable as a naturalist and geo/ethno-historian; he was completely organized from start to finish; and best of all, he was focused throughout on everyone's safety. I was very happy that I made the climb, and that Josué was my guide.

We did it! - Not in our wildest dreams did my 70 year old husband and I expect to be able to hike 1.4km up to the Refuge at 16,000 feet on Cotopaxi. It was challenging but exhilarating. The mug of chocolate at the Refuge well-deserved. Fernando, our guide, was informative and reassuring. The whole day was very well-planned from start to finish.

Great time! - Great group to hike with. Hiking to the base camp was the highlight. I wish there was more to see in the park. Didn’t spot any wildlife. Tour guide was full of energy.

Great tour - I enjoyed this tour. Irene and Jimmy were fantastic resources throughout the day. The tour was very well organized and everything went smoothly. The hike is difficult with elevation but manageable. A great day trip to see the park and the volcano. I recommend this tour.
