“Quito Old Town : Informative, Accommodating, and Flexible Tour”
Amanda met us at the airport, and tailored our tour to our desires (we stopped first at a local market to explore new fruits, foods, and flavors). She filled the entire day with interesting stories and bits of trivia, lugged our luggage around, gave us options at almost every step, and went with whatever we wanted. Transport from the airport to our hotel with a tour and extra stops based on questions asked during the day. We couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to Equador
