“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!

“Amazing City Tour in Quito with Gustavo!”
We had an incredible experience with Gustavo during our brief stopover in Quito on the way back from the Galápagos Islands. With a few hours to spare before our evening flight, we decided to book a city tour, and it turned out to be the perfect way to spend our free morning. From the start, everything ran like clockwork. Gustavo was an exceptional guide, full of knowledge about the city and its history. He tailored the tour to our interests and made sure we got the most out of our limited time. The sights were beautiful, and it felt like we truly got to experience the heart of Quito. One of the standout moments was how Gustavo adjusted the schedule to ensure we were back at the airport on time, without feeling rushed. His attention to detail and professionalism really made a difference and made the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you find yourself in Quito with some free time, I highly recommend this tour. It was an unforgettable way to explore the city, and we are so grateful to Gustavo for arranging such a seamless and memorable experience!
