To learn about Loja, use LifeinLoja tour services! - To learn about Loja, I contacted LifeinLoja to arrange a customized city tour. For 5 hours, Jonathan and I visited markets, museums, churches, squares, galleries, and houses in the downtown area. Then I enjoyed a private coffee tasting at the Kaweh coffee shop. Their beans consistently earn international coffee competition awards, as their trophies on display prove. Jonathan provided an excellent orientation to history, culture, and life in Loja, personalized to my particular interests. I highly recommend Jonathan's services. You may contact him at

One of the best city tours in the city! - Walking through the center of Loja and immersing yourself in its streets was one of the best activities I could plan during my trip. Loja is a city full of art, culture and history in every corner, without a doubt a worthwhile destination.
I highly recommend the city tour with Jonathan, a person passionate about culture and his work, who will be in charge of making the tour an exceptional experience.

An exceptional walking tour - Today I took a tour of the city of Loja with Jonathan and it was an exceptional experience.
His knowledge of local history and culture is impressive. It is deep and, at the same time, entertaining.
Their conversation was also very pleasant.
I also thank him for taking me to visit the Kaweh specialty coffee shop where I had the most surprising coffee of my life. A delight of flavor and aromas and a beautiful color.
Thank you so much!

Excellent guide - Jonathan was highly recommended by friends who had toured Loja with him. The two of us had only a couple of hours, but we were so glad to be able to do the Cultural Walking Tour of Loja with him.
Jonathan has excellent English language skills and he’s very knowledgeable about Ecuador and its history. You can tell that Jonathon loves Loja and is passionate about the city and all the city does for its people, both culturally and environmentally.
We very much enjoyed the 2 hours we spent with and would highly recommend him as a guide.

BEST TOURS, SO MUCH FUN! - Jona is the BEST tour guide! For my husband's birthday, we visited Loja for a week. Jona took us on tours of Saraguro, Cera, Taquil, and surrounding areas. It was SO much fun! He is VERY knowledgeable about each city/town and its history. Jona is kind, thoughtful, and considerate of everyone's specific needs and preferences while touring. He also knows the locals, which helps give a truly unique and memorable experience. I cannot say enough good things about him. HIRE HIM! You won't regret it, I promise! We are already planning to return soon and do more adventures with Jona! :)
