A great way to experience the city! - We attended the “Free tour: Walking through the streets of Quito” with Rasu and had the best afternoon. We enjoyed seeing the sites and hidden spots that we never would have found otherwise! We learnt alot about Cacao, Chocolate, local foods and drinks and culture of the indigenous people. Highly recommend this tour! (Booked with Guru Walk)
