Hit the spots! - We booked this tour on-line and in advance as it covered the things we wanted to see in Quito in one convenient package. We were expecting a number of people on the tour, but it turned out that we were the only two, We found the meeting point at Plaza Foch about 12 minutes walk from our hotel (JW Marriott) and our guide and driver, Andrès found us. With only 2 passengers, we were in a comfortable sedan. We rode the cable car (remember, you pay your own entry fees in $US on top of the tour cost), swung on the highest swing in South America, walked through old town to see the historic buildings and try some chocolate, and then drove us out to the Mitad Del Mundo (Equator Centre) (which was great fun - again pay your own entrance fee). Andrès was great. Took our photos, etc. We were very happy with this tour.

Fabulous Day in Quito - Our day started by being met by our guide and driver, Michael. We were the only two on the tour. Michael started by taking us to the Middle of the World, an informative tour explaining the equator. Next we went to the cable car and Michael accompanied us explaining the history of the mountains and volcanoes. We enjoyed lunch in the old town followed by a guided walk of the old historic centre, viewing many churches and buildings of historical importance. At the end of the day, Michael delivered us back to our hotel. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Quito.

FREDDY was the best - Ok first Freddy was the best guide: we had a group of 11 and everyone had time to hang out and learn from Freddy. Every stop on this tour was great . We felt safe and in good hands . Lots of walking. Even a stop for local food.ask lots of questions and learn about this great location. We really wish we could taste everything and see it all . We loved this tour

Great tour of Quito - A well organized & thoughtful tour of Quito. We could not have organized this ourselves. Michael was a great guide, giving additional information on places we visited. We really enjoyed the day.

Day goes by Fast! - All highlights of Quito covered in 1 day. This tour is perfect if you only have few days to tour Quito. The meeting point was a little difficult because we had no phone number for the tour guide picking us up, but we called the tour company and they put us in contact with someone. They were just running about 10 minutes late. We visited both the new and old equator lines. Historic district tour was amazing. Our guide had the hook up to the good spots to get better views of the downtown square. We had delicious sandwiches recommended by our Tour guide. We went to a chocolate factory and bought the best chocolate in Ecuador. We did not do the cable car because our guide advised us it was not a good day due to the clouds. Instead, he took us to a look out point where we were able to see all of Quito from above and the Angel overseeing Quito. Overall, great Quito experience.

Skip it - This was a glorified Uber. We could have taken an Uber to all of the locations for cheaper. None of the tickets or entrance fees were included so it made this literally a transportation service. The guide was nice and knowledgeable but even the old town tour, we were just taken to churches in which we had no interest in.
