Cotopaxi is in our hearts - We loved our trip to Cotopaxi so much! The transfer (the bus itself) was quite all right and on time. The hike to Cotopaxi, which is the main event here, was challenging but so satisfying! We were proud of ourselves, to be honest :-) And our guide Felipe is a very good guy with a really good sense of humor and a lot of interesting information on Ecuador and Cotopaxi area. You can always feel when a person is in love with his own country and it translates to our vision as well.

Impressive excursion! Super guide! - The trip to Cotopaxi was wonderful. PameR was a great guide. During the bus ride she gave us a lot of interesting information about Quito and Ecuador. The day was well structured and despite traffic jams we achieved all our goals. The highlight was of course the hike on the Cotopaxi. There our guide always paid attention to all participants and had a pleasant pace. Thank you for this wonderful day and the lasting impressions.

Spectacular Tour - This tour was amazing! The sights and the experiences are life-changing. The tour guide, Felipe, was extremely informative, knowledgeable and always looking out for your safety. I will not lie, this tour does take you out of your comfort zone a little with a hike up a hill at 15,000 ft elevation through snow, but the tour guide is always there to encourage you and assure you’re safe. The reward is well worth the effort once you finally reach base camp and the views are stunning. We were able to see Andean wildlife during the hike such as a mountain caracara and an Andean fox. Take this tour and Cotopaxi will remain forever in your heart.
