Contratamos esto casi sin expectativas y terminó siendo lo más lindo del viaje. El lugar en Grupos tiene una ambientación hermosa. El guía contaba historias que no están en ninguna guía de viaje. Lo recomendaría a cualquiera que visite Quito.

The kind of thing you still remember years later. They gave us plenty of notice about a schedule change. I compared prices before booking and this was the best deal. The photos taken by our staff during the experience was much appreciated. An experience worth every minute.

Good, with caveats

I would do it again, though I would change a couple of things. The hygiene and safety standards guaranteed lived up to it. Booking was straightforward and confirmation came through instantly. Great value for money. We would have liked more variety in the main course. Recommended overall.

Nos gustó bastante, con un par de detalles menores. Muy bien que incluyera degustación guiada de más de 15 frutas exóticas. Nos pasaron toda la información por mail el día anterior, muy claro. Le pondría un pero al tiempo libre, se sintió corto en algunas paradas. Buena experiencia dentro de todo.

Good experience

We enjoyed it a lot, with a couple of small niggles. The room at Friendly is a gem in itself. Everything ran on time and was well organised. We would have liked more variety in the main course. I would do it again anyway.
