Simply Wonderful! - We chose the Spanish option, for we are both native/bilingual speakers. As the title says, this tour was wonderful! We learned a great deal of history whilst trying delicious foods. Daniel is a knowledgeable, funny, and friendly tour guide; we had some delightful conversations along the way. Helpful tips, too. Highly recommend!

Fun in Quito - We had a lovely time seeing Old Twins Quito. Our group ended up being only 4 people which was great. Our tour guide was Vivi and she did an amazing job educating us about Quito in a fun and easy to follow way. The food we tasted along the way was a nice addition. I recommend this tour when visiting Wuito.

Fernando; our perfect eternally cheerful happy guide. With his knowledge we fell in love with him and Equador. - Our guide Fernando, was the perfect cheerful host. Describing typical language phases, tasting local food, traditional dress and gifts. We gelled together and lost our British reserve to embrace the Equadorian culture of happiness. You only live once, so try everything, it’s a wonderful feeling !!!! Thanks Fernando

Great walking tour of historic Quito - This was an incredible introduction to the food, culture and sights of Quito. Our guide, Vivi, was so enthusiastic and friendly and shared so much of the history on our tour. The food was great, ending with a special chocolate tasting. Overall, if I could rate this as more than 5 stars I would.

It’s more of a... - It’s more of a city/church tour than we expected. The chocolate tasting was a true highlight. I would liked to have tried more traditional Ecuador dishes. The food was less impressive than expected. Maybe charge $10 more and have higher quality food. The guide, Vivi, was truly exceptional.
