Great tour worth every cent - We were at meeting point, Driver and guide showed up in time. Andrea, our guide for the day was amazing, what a lovely, polite girl. Her product knowledge was excellent. She was telling us stories, history and pointing out key places. She has been patient and professional. Very very impressed with this young girl. Best wishes Andrea.

Definitely a good choice - Firstly, we were traveling by bus, stylized for an old-fashioned one, which had a lot of charm for us. Secondly, the tour guide of her kind, Irene, was talking about Ecuador and the equator with such enthusiasm. We have complex information on everything. She seems to be truly passionate about her job. She took us to the place where the equator precisely goes through.

Enjoyable trip - Plenty of time to explore site. As well as monument, a number of exhibits, cafes and shops. Great means of transport there and back via converted ex city tram. Andrea our guide - full of energy and enthusiasm. Just to be aware this tour does not take you to actual latitude 0. ( This spot is about 240 metres away ( not discovered until fairly recently with advent of new technologies)). The tour is to exhibition park surrounding and including the monument originally thought to represent latitude 0 .
