Excellent from start to finish. The guide switched between languages effortlessly. Do not hesitate, book it.

Volvería a hacerlo
Es de esas cosas que uno recuerda años después. Si lo comparás con hacerlo por tu cuenta, conviene. La explicación en Máxima Expresión nos dejó pensando. Sin dudas una de las mejores experiencias del viaje.

Recomendable
Está muy bien, aunque le falta poco para ser excelente. Se respetó al minuto el horario de regreso. Muy bueno para una primera vez en la ciudad. Un detalle: los asientos no son de lo más cómodos para un recorrido largo.

Lo elegimos por las fotos y resultó incluso mejor en persona. El guía fue un capítulo aparte: sabía muchísimo y contestó todas nuestras preguntas. Muy recomendable para cualquier edad.

Booked at the last minute and it was a great call. The stop at Mindo Cloud Forest was our favourite. Our guide was warm and took time to chat with everyone. If only every tour were run like this.

Una experiencia hermosa
Fue el mejor día de nuestro viaje a Quito. Se ve que el guía elige bien qué contar, nunca se hizo pesado. Lo de Máxima Expresión fue el momento del día. Totalmente recomendado.
