Great tour for the day - Great tour and guide. Very nice, polite, and knowledgeable! The waterfalls were gorgeous. Great day.

Let’s go again - What an amazing experience we had today in Banos and the Devils Couldran! Pedro was a great guide who gave us lots of information and told us about the locals! He was prompt, friendly, spoke good English and had lots of laughs with us.

Good guide - The guide was very good. It was a long ride and he found a good balance between talking all the time and telling us about the things we were passing. He knew a lot about the various plants we were seeing when hiking. My only complaint is that the description didn't give any detail about the difficulty of the hiking...or even that there WAS hiking. We would have dressed differently had we understood.

A perfect day - This tour is packed with great activities! Pedro was my guide. He commented through WhatsApp with me the night before. He was punctual and very knowledgeable about the volcanoes around Quito. After three hours drive which was not boring at all and he stopped and we bought this delicious ice cream! After arriving at Baños we went to the market and had empanadas and a kind of juice that made from a fermented fruit, it was not bad. Then we drove up to the cable car and cross the river to the waterfall. I chose to hike back to the car. It’s just an hour but the altitude sickness got the worst of me! Pedro was patient and gave me a hand when going downhill as it was wet and slippery. The best part was Rambo the dog, he accompanied us all the way down! Then we went to a bigger and more majestic one. Then we went to lunch, all these were included. I had the best grilled trout I ever had! It was grilled to perfection and the garlic sauce was so delicious! Even the French fries were delicious! After lunch we went to the treehouse. I am afraid of heights and had indicated I didn’t really want to do the swings. But I am so glad I did that! I faced my fears head on and I found that I do like it a lot! I still have my shoes and glasses 😆😆 I just love this tour and Pedro is a great tour guide!

Unforgettable Memories - We had a blast on this excursion tour! Pedro and Carolina went above and beyond with their hospitality and to make every moment unforgettable. We highly recommend visiting all of these amazing highlights in one day because the day kept getting better and better and the adventure never stopped. We love Ecuador!

A must do! - Excellent tour of Baños! Very well organized and our guide, Pedro, was knowledgeable and personable. He ensured everything ran smoothly during the full day tour. If you are visiting Quito and want to get out of the city to see the beautiful hillsides of Ecuador, I highly recommend this tour.

Pedro does a great Banos tour! Everything was included. It was nearly 12 hours, but very worth it. - Pedro, our guide, and Catalina, our driver, provided an excellent experience. Pedro provided a lot of information on the drive including history, geology, culture, flora, fauna and interesting information about the different ecosystems we were driving through. We began in Banos, walking through the Sunday market. Pedro pointed out a lot of the local fruits and vegetables; buying several for us to taste. We continued down the main street, through a couple of plazas and ended at the church. Pedro and Catalina walked back to get the car, allowing us time to tour the church. We walked the beautiful flower gardens at the “Treehouse” followed by a delicious lunch at Pumamaqui Restaurant. We were offered two soups and three mains. We chose chicken soup and trout. Both were delicious. The cable car across the top of Bridal Veil Falls was fun. The highlight of the day was the Devil’s Cauldron waterfall area. The first falls, Cascada del Arcangel San Miquel, were smaller. The walk down to the Garganta del Salto Pilon del Diablo was not bad. The return quite strenuous. The route includes 2 suspension bridges (one was 120’ long, 15° decline), multiple steps and steep paths. But oh, the views! So worth it. Pedro was wonderful, encouraging these two 70+ year olds to take whatever time we needed to do the climb. The drive back was complicated by heavy Sunday traffic, rain and accidents, taking nearly 4 hours. But we had no concerns. Catalina was a great driver. We felt very safe with her.

The best tour in Quito! - Pedro and Franklin were absolutely two of the best tour guides we have ever joined. Franklin was a very safe and courteous driver, while Pedro's knowledge of the flora and fauna was amazing. We were pleasantly surprised when Pedro walked us through the market and introduced us to numerous local fruits and vegetables, including a tasting of many we had never heard of. We continued with a tour of Banos before heading to the falls. All the while, Pedro explained the surroundings and cultures of the places we past. The highlight had to be crossing the river in a small gondola and hiking to the bottom of the Devil's Cauldron! What a wonderful tour, with two amazing guides. Oh, and unlike other tours, everything was included in the cost of the tour. Everything! 5 star service by 5 star guides!

Banos day tour from Quito - Beautiful scenery in Banos and a great tour guide! Got transport to and from Quito and some good sightseeing, including spectacular waterfalls, in just over half a day. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Nice Day Trip to the Amazon! - I only had one day in Quito before heading off to the Galapagos so wanted to use it to explore the Northern part of the Amazon in el Banos. Pedro was my guide and he was prompt, friendly and shared insights about the various areas. He also knew the best places to park and see the vistas which was useful. The drive was about 3~ hours from Quito each way. We rode in an SUV which was comfortable and there were pretty views to enjoy. As part of the tour you'll see gorgeous waterfalls, have the option to hike around to see the vegetation up close, and go to a top peak to get a great view and ride the swing at the end of the earth. I also liked the cable car that takes you across a valley and close to a waterfall. The tour also includes a tasty Ecuadorian lunch at a restaurant located in the hills of the Amazon so that was a nice treat too. Overall it's a great excursion to provide exposure to the Amazon, some of its plant life, the various climates, and, of course, see the unique views. Makes me want to come back one day to explore the Amazon further.
