Long layover spent the right way! - I booked the tour because I had a flight change and my layover extended to over 18 hours. If you only have a few hours in Quito, this is totally worth it! The places are so unique and beautiful and Jose made this tour so enjoyable! He was so kind and respectful.

The Best of Quito in one day - We had an awesome day with Jorge today enjoying the sites of Quito. Jorge and his team were very flexible in tailoring the tour to fit my family's needs and super responsive to any questions I had before going. Jorge was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the sites we visited, and he is also very funny. My kids especially enjoyed the Intinan Museum and the Cable Car and swing. It felt like being shown around town by a new friend. Grateful for these memories and this wonderful day!

Fantastic. He will be my go to guide should I ever return. - Jorge was, professional, knowledgeable about all things Ecuador, and a pleasure to spend a half day with on a private tour seeing the important sites of Quito. I had limited time, and he was flexible in arranging an itinerary and getting me back to a family wedding.

- We had an amazing day in Quito. Our guide Jose was very knowledgeable and showed us many different aspects of Quito and Ecuador in general, in terms of its people, history, culture, geography, etc. The itinerary was well planned and everything went well. It’s also worth noting, as foreign tourists, that we felt extremely safe walking with Jose in different areas of Quito all the time. I’d highly recommend this day trip to those who are interested in knowing more about this wonderful city.

A Wonderful and Fun Exploration of Quito! - Quito is such an incredible place to explore, and this tour was a great way to hit some of the best places in the city! Jorge and his team made it incredibly easy and welcoming, even for those of us who were still learning basic Spanish! The sights are absolutely beautiful, and we had a blast hiking and seeing the varying landscapes. The TeleferiQo was a highlight, and so was the delicious chocolate at Yumbo's chocolate. Definitely stick around the city to try some of the great restaurants as well!
