Amazing experience in Baños - We had an amazing experience with Freddy as our tour guide and driver in Baños, Ecuador! He was always on time, incredibly friendly, and very informative throughout the trip. What stood out the most was how flexible he was—he gladly modified the tour to fit our preferences and schedule. Freddy went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable and happy the entire day. His local knowledge and warm personality made the experience even more memorable. Highly recommended!

Banos - It was a long day, about three hours from Quito, but well worth it. My guide, Myriam, was very knowledgeable. I was able to see a lot of the Banos area. I highly recommend this excursion as a way to see more of the country.

Banos and Mindo - We did two tours, one to Banos and the other to Mindo. I would highly recommend both. The driver and guide were both friendly and informative. They were also very flexible and accommodating. They also went above and beyond on our trip to Mindo. Both main roads were closed, one from a rock slide and the other from an accident, so the driver very skillfully navigated a back road across the mountain to allow us to do the tour that day.

Baños, Ecuador. Spectacular Waterfall Sunday, Extreme Fun and Adventures. - On 26/01/25 I had the opportunity to meet Baños, a wonderful and super picturesque town of Ecuador, with landscapes, waterfalls including the highest waterfall in Ecuador "El Pailón del diablo" 93 meters of free fall, with a flow and impressive power, plus a great diversity of spaces for fun and adventure. I went with my daughter Jessica and my mother-in-law Ninive and the 3 we thanked the guide Irene de Quito Tour, because not only took us to know spectacular sites of Bath, but she instructed us with historical details of the place with a perfect English and Spanish fluency. Baños is a tourist stop that you should not miss if you travel to Ecuador, but I warn you one day is not enough to know and enjoy Baños...

Juan made us in love with Ecuador. - It was our first time to Ecuador and we were very lucky on our first tour to meet Juan as our guide. He told us so many things about the country and places that we are inspired to learn more and come back to Ecuador again.
