Quito Private Car Tours

“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.

“Day Trip To See Middle of the World and Quito”

Gustavo (Gus) was on time to meet us at our hotel after our arrival at the airport. He was pleasant and talkative and very informative. He was easy to understand. He was extremely knowledgeable about every aspect of his city and the surrounding areas. He arranged our activities with perfect precision, which allowed us to see everything we wanted in the short time we were there. He graciously arranged this tour to fit our timeframe. We arrived in the early afternoon, with the tour lasting 7 hours. He took us around and dropped us off at our hotel at 8pm. We can't thank him enough for working late into the evening. The tour was fabulous. We started off at the Intinan museum and Globe at the Middle of the World. Then it was off to Old Town Quito. We enjoyed the square and went inside 3 churches. He spoke of their history and architectural styles. He was so knowledgeable. He was terrific driving through the city. The last stop was going to El Panecillo hill to see the Virgin Mary statue. It was so beautiful at night, as was the city lit up below. Thank you Gustavo. We wish you much continued success. You are the best.

“Day Tour - 6 hours”

Andrea took us all around Quito and made the city come alive. Her insight and historical detail added depth to the already beautiful scenery. Even though it was just a day tour, it left us wanting more — we’re already planning to come back for additional tours and hikes. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing your experience Richard! You are always welcome in Quito and, of course, to explore Ecuador. The next adventure is calling… and it’s on a volcano. haha
