Pure Nature - It was amazing, the weather spectacular, so many birds really close. The forest Walk, the orchids, the hummingbirds, the butterflies and the chocolate factory we liked very much. The Guide had a great knowledge about everything. Highly recomended this tour.

10/10 Recommend! - We loved our tour! Our guide was so knowledgeable about the ecosystems of Ecuador. He made an effort to help us enjoy our day, and he adapted our itinerary based on our preferences. We said we really wanted to see toucans, so when he heard one he chased it down across the valley so we could see it! We fed hummingbirds, swam in a waterfall, walked in a butterfly garden, and experienced artisan chocolate-making! He was friendly and helpful and answered so many of our questions about what to do in Ecuador even outside of Mindo. We would certainly recommend this tour with Andres!

Hummingbird Heaven! - HIGHLIGHT of my time in Quito -- we saw like 18 different species of hummingbirds, got to feed them, and it was magic! Our Tour Guide, Andres, was incredible. He has so much knowledge, was so kind, and really hooked us up with a private hummingbird experience, plus awesome food spots. The chocolate demonstration was also incredible and I learned so much. I would come back to Ecuador just for this experience again!

Mindo - Excellent day trip, Andres was a fabulous guide. Wasn’t feeling the best so he crafted the day around us! Hummingbirds and Toucans were the highlight for us, a very enjoyable day.

Beitif Hummingbirds and empanadas!! - Amazing trip with Andre who was a superb host, very knowledgeable of the local wildlife, fauna and made the day for us! The hummingbirds sanctuary was the highlight, and then he took us for the best empanadas we’ve had on the whole trip.

Great tour! - We loved this tour! Andres was knowledgeable and so helpful throughout the day. We did the longer/more strenuous hike and the waterfall was totally worth it! We had a good amount of time at each place, and having the hummingbirds eat out of our hands was so cool. Could not recommend this tour highly enough!
