Ecuador Private Tour Guides

“Two fantastic days in Quito”

We had two fantastic days in Quito with Gustavo. Getting to experience Quito and the surrounding area with Gustavo was a real treat. He was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the history, culture and traditions of that area of Ecuador. His recommendation for La Gloria for dinner was spot on. After two days together we felt like extended part of Gustavo's family. Taking those two tours with Gustavo should be on everyone's to do list in Quito. Thanks Gustavo Mike, Eveline and Ron!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your time in Quito and that your experience with me was so special. Sharing the history, culture, and traditions of our beautiful city is a true pleasure, and I’m glad you appreciated my recommendations, like La Gloria. It warms my heart to know that after two days together, you felt like part of the family. I always strive to create genuine connections with my visitors, and I’m so happy to hear that we achieved that together. I hope you carry fond memories of Quito and come back to visit us again soon. You’ll always be welcome here! Warm regards, Gustavo

“A Day to Remember in Colonial Quito”

Mauricio was an excellent tour guide. He took us to several places that were not on the original tour, such as the Army Social Club. He used quick thinking to alter his planned itinerary, when we mentioned that we wanted to see the gargoyles at the Basilica. His English was excellent and his knowledge of Quito and its history astounding. He had incredible stories that we will never forget. Mauricio told us over and over to keep our valuables safe and protected, since there were large crowds due to the Spring Solstice festivities. Unfortunately, my husband was pick-pocketed twice, losing both his phone and his wallet. Mauricio quickly went into protective mode, taking us to a quiet place so that my husband could cancel his credit cards and disable his phone. He took us to the police station and was willing to stay with us for time well beyond the original tour guidelines. He was absolutely amazing and professional. We will recommend him to anyone we know heading to South America. We were so grateful for his care.

Dear Raylene and Frank, thank you so much for your wonderful review. The pickpocketing incident was unfortunate but, as you saw, Ecuador is safe overall and worthwhile visiting. I’m glad you enjoyed and appreciated my work and hope you’ll recommend me and Ecuador.

“A Fabulous Day with Hummingbirds, the Rainforest, and the Equator”

We had the absolutely best day with Liz D. She was so knowledgable, and outgoing, and accommodating. We learned so much, and had an incredible experience… feeding hummingbirds from our hand, hiking along the Alambi river, seeing how coffee plants start and learning how the beans are harvested. Our trip to the Equator Museum, was equally as enjoyable. We loved the hands-on activities, and we especially got a kick about the lesson on head-shrinking. The guides at Cero Latitud were so much fun, were loaded with information to share, and had such energy. We would go with Liz D. on another tour, in a heartbeat.
