Andrea V.
Hi there! I’m a tour guide and explorer based in the Central Andes of Ecuador. Over the years, I’ve explored mountains, trails, and hidden routes connecting the Andes with the Coast and the Amazon—by 4x4, bike, public transport, and even on foot. Living here has given me the chance to build a real connection with local communities, nature, and the culture that makes this region so special. I also bring nearly 15 years of experience working on cultural projects, museums, and heritage spaces in Quito and across Ecuador, which adds depth and context to every tour. Alongside classic destinations like Otavalo, Mitad del Mundo, Quilotoa, Papallacta, and Mindo, I love creating experiences with a fresh perspective—taking you beyond the usual spots into beautiful, lesser-known places. For me, traveling is about truly experiencing a place, not just visiting it.

Tim V.
I’m Tim, a passionate tour guide originally from the Netherlands, and I’ve been living and working in Ecuador since 2010. What started as a love for travel and adventure turned into a full-time career helping others explore one of the most diverse and beautiful countries in the world. With over a decade of experience, I offer both private and group tours across Ecuador – from the snow-capped Andes to the tropical Amazon rainforest, and from the highland markets to the Pacific beaches. Whether you’re looking for a multi-day adventure or a short getaway, I design each trip to match your interests and pace. I’m based in Quito and offer personalized day tours to stunning locations nearby, including: • Mindo – a lush cloud forest full of birds, waterfalls, and adventure activities • Cotopaxi – home to one of the world’s highest active volcanoes and amazing hiking • Otavalo – famous for its indigenous market, Andean culture, and beautiful lakes As your personal driver and guide, I’ll make sure everything runs smoothly – from transportation and timing to local tips and hidden gems you won’t find in a guidebook. I speak fluent Dutch, English, and Spanish, and I enjoy sharing both well-known sights and off-the-beaten-path experiences with travelers from all over the world.

The Best of Quito in one day
Quito is a beautiful city, which has the biggest old town in South America. Surrounding by volcanoes in middle of the Andes. Quito is known for its treasures of colonial churches, paintings, sculptures and carvings. It is crossed for the equatorial line that divided the world in two hemispheres. I am a Quiteña (native from Quito), that is why I know really well my city and I can show you the most beautiful places, and share with you all my knowledge about Quito.

“Personalized tour ”
Vivian picked us up from our hotel early in the morning, so that we could spend the entire day in Mindo. She skipped tourist traps and places we didn't care to see. She took us hiking, spotted birds, took us to a small chocolate factory, humming birds and butterflies. She is fun and upbeat. Lived in the U.S. as well as Ecuador. Highly recommend.
