Great Value for Money - This tour exceeded expectation and we are so glad that we chose to do it with a guide rather than on our own. Pick up was on time and then we were provided with a lot of information before we got to the first location. Everywhere we went we got lots of information and insights that we could not have gotten on our own. Our host always made sure to ask if we had questions or special requests and accommodated them Particularly appreciated the insights at the church of gold and in the square in Old Town. I think that the tour was well organised and paced and loved every bit of it. Definitely would recommend it to people - you can see these things on your own but the additional information and comfort is worth the price.

Quito tour - Roberto was excellent. His knowledge was amazing and his manner was unassuming. We would do another tour with him anytime.

Quality service with local saavy tour guides - We had family travelling from different countries to Ecuador for an end of year vacation. I coordinated everything with Henry through WhatsApp and a joint excel sheet, he was always providing good insights and accommodating our needs (even last minute flight changes). The guides (Andres and Roberto) where very professional, gave the private tour in two languages and made our experience fantastic (especially as we where travelling with kids and a toddler). When we return to Ecuador I will not hesitate to use Overland Adventure services again, they where professional, punctual, responsible and provided lots of local experiences that my whole family enjoyed. Muchas gracias a Vinicio, Fabian, Andres, Roberto y Henry por todas sus gentilezas y ensenarnos Ecuador desde la perspectiva local! El servicio cumplió todas las expectativas y les agradecemos toda la hospitalidad y detalles que tuvieron con nosotros!
