An incredible tour! - I didn't know how much history there was in Quito until we had Irene as our guide. It's amazing what you can learn in just one tour. I highly recommend this girl. We really felt super comfortable, without having to run around and try everything around us. Even my 4 year old son loved it! Super focused on making sure everyone had an amazing day! 🙌🏻

My experience in QUITO - Yesterday during my flight from Quito to Rep. I started to think and the truth is that I just lived an experience that for me will be unforgettable, I visited: I did the city tours, the impressive cathedrals, Baths, Cable Car, Quilotoa, I met the Indigenous community and finally the volcano 🌋 Cotopaxi. I was delighted with the weather, the food but what made it magical was the Guide that was assigned to us IRENE, Wao who did well 👏🏾👏🏾🏾 my respects for her taught us so much about each place... you can see a great passion and knowledge when talking about everything with exact dates and data of each thing and when answering our questions you can see how prepared she is. I also loved the driver assigned Mr. Vinicio I felt more than safe in his bus with so many descents and climbs. My family was delighted with the photos and they already want to know Quito and I told them that to make their experience as cute as mine, use that Agency and Ms. Irene as a guide and Mr. Vinicio as a driver. I know I'll last days talking about Quito 🤩🤗

Unforgettable experience in Quito - An unforgettable experience, I loved the scenery, the delicious food, the super friendly and attentive people, I was from Tuesday to Saturday, we did from city tour, visit to bathrooms, Quilotoa and climb the Cotopaxi Volcano. The beautiful sights but what gave her the touch, was our guide Irene, the love, patience and dedication with which she answered each question, how she took care of us and looked after our well-being and at the same time, teaching us so much of a country that I knew little, I returned to my country almost being a Quiteña more :) the way so pleasant and simple in which she explained us made us understand and know everything completely, driver Vinicio is not far behind, I felt safe all the time, she drives super well and prudent and always was attentive to each of us and our needs. I want to go back to Ecuador and I will definitely do it again with this agency and with Irene and Vinicio who are the best 🤍

Loved this Experience - We had an amazing day!!! Ivan was a wonderful, conscientious driver and very pleasant. Irene was an awesome guide - very personable, knowledgeable, friendly, and fun, but also transparent with her feelings about various things (good and not-so-good things about the country and city), all while expressing her passionate love for her country. We enjoyed every minute of our time.

Amazing Tour! - This tour is excellent! We got to see so many point of interests - Basilica, Old Town, TelefériQo, Panecillo, Equator. We really appreciated how our tour guide allowed us to choose where we wanted to spend more time. Nothing felt too rushed

Great tour for short stay in Quito - We had booked a group tour but apparently everyone else went Cotopaxi that day so it was just me and my partner on the tour. Carlos was our guide and he was very knowledgeable and it was apparent he has a deep connection to the city which made the the tour even better. We had a great time at the equator, teleferico, and walking around the historic center seeing all the churches. Carlos made sure we had pictures to document the day and even did candid photos. We would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Quito if you are short on time.

Travel through Quito with Carlos! - Fun does not begin to describe the time we had with Carlos going throughout Quito! On our final day in Ecuador, we feel like we saw every corner of Quito, all thanks to Carlos! We were so thankful to have him take us around and were so delighted at his extensive knowledge of the city! He absolutely made our time in Quito sing!

Excellent experience and Great Guide (Irene)! - We did a couple of days with Irene and the Quito Tur Bus - although both days we took a private tour. I can't recommend Irene highly enough, she was an excellent guide that did a really good job. Her english was excellent and her knowledge was superb. Day 1 we did the historic city tour and Day 2 we went on the Otavalo tour. If you are in Quito then you should request her as a guide!
