Great Intro to Quito - Seeing the city and sampling food with Jimena was a great experience. Fun to mix history, culture and food together while exploring a new city. Jimena is very knowledgeable and also open to our request to visit a supermarket.

Highly Recommend…do at the start of your trip so you can learn the city layout. - Freddie was an amazing guide and went above and beyond to ensure our family had a great day. Don’t let the “doesn’t include lunch” fool you. We tasted so many different foods (empanadas, snacks, ice cream, chocolate, cocoa, brownies, fruit @ the market) and were plenty full. When access was not available for one attraction, Freddie had another option at the ready.

10 Stars for Luis! - I would give Luis 10 stars if I could. He was amiable, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The food was delicious and the sights were unforgettable. The tour was the perfect balance of activity and eating. Plus, we learned a lot about Quito.

Great variety of authentic Ecuadorian foods - Marcelo was a wonderful tour guide. He is so knowledgeable about so much not just food. We had a great variety of experiences. We went to the farmer's market and sampled fresh fruits and local dishes at the food court. Then we went to the hill with Virgin Mary statue and sampled delicious empanadas and local drink canelazo at the food court there. Then headed to a great walking tour of old Town and experienced a chocolate shop that presented the history of Ecuadorian chocolate and of course had lots of yummy samples.
