Fantastic walking tour with local food and chocolate tasting in Quito - I didn’t have long in Quito so this was exactly what I was looking for to see as much of the city as I could in one day. The tour started in Plaza García Moreno at 2 pm and lasted until about 6 pm. We visited many notable attractions in Quito including Basílica del Voto Nacional, Plaza de La Independencia, Plaza de San Francisco, and more. We also got to do a lot of local food and chocolate tasting in several shops that we stopped at along the way which was great. Kevin was our tour guide and he did a great job guiding us throughout the whole tour so a big thank you to him for his guidance. If you’re looking for a solid Quito walking tour that comes with great local food and chocolate tasting definitely book this, you will love it! - Nolan
