Hi, I’m Vivian and would love to tour you. I am the 4th licensed guide in Ecuador history, 54 years old and have toured for 32 years well over 8,000 travelers with nothing but highest reviews, over 4,000 positive comments letters on file. I am Ecuador’s longest serving, licensed guide and a commercially trained and licensed safe driver, never an accident, never a client hurt on tour. I am one of four elected, unpaid officers running our National Tour Guide Association. I tour all of Ecuador with specialties in and around the Quito, Mindo, Otavalo, Cotopaxi, Quilotoa, Banos areas as well as the Amazon. I used to be a tour leader for the Galapagos. I tour from one to fifty clients. I can change/adjust your tours right “on the fly” as we go along, am that flexible; my tours are not set in concrete. I am a U.S. Citizen as well as native Ecuadorian, part Andes indian. The guide you choose will be the difference in your day and trip. I have a happy disposition and many say I was like being with a, highly knowledgeable on Ecuador, friend. See on this site my excellent standard tours; I also can make Custom Tours for you. My average response time to letters is less than three hours, often immediate if not out on tour.

“Gustavo is amazing!”
We saw everything at our own pace he customized the tours to our preferences. I had a fall at the hotel and he found me a physical therapist, doctors and lent us his own wheelchair. I can’t wait to return when I’m healthy and travel with him again. 5/5!

“Customized Tour Was Fabulous”
My family and I had a wonderful day with Gustavo (Gus). He worked with us to plan a perfect day traveling around Otavalo, Cotacachi, Cuicocha Cotacachi Cayapas, and Pegucha volcano waterfalls. His English is excellent and he shared an extensive amount of culture, history, geography, and current events with us on his beautiful country. His driving is great and he was very flexible and personable. We highly recommend Gus to anyone looking to learn about and enjoy Ecuador. Thanks for a fantastic day, Gus and happy new year to you and your family!
Gustavo T.
