Quito Relaxation - Frank was a great guide. He took us on a hike by the river once we arrived at the beautiful property. The hot springs were amazing. We all got a massage and the services were very good. It is a relaxing day in a beautiful setting. Lunch is convenient with the restaurant on site.

Papallacta Day Trip - We booked Franklin via Get Your Guide. He arrived on time with a clean car. On the drive to Papallacta he told us lots of interesting things about Ecuador, its history, population, flora, and fauna. Upon arrival we did a short hike that was very beautiful. Franklin talked about the plants. He was great about taking our pictures and going at our pace. After the hike we had lunch then went into the hot springs. On way back Franklin again talked to us about many things. He was good at answering questions too. Overall a pleasant and relaxing day. Franklin was a very safe and careful driver as well. I highly recommend this tour and Franklin.
