A must see and do in Quito - The tour guide at the native museum was extremely good and the visit had way more aspects and covered way more topics that I expected. Being at the centre of the planet is also awsome experience. Lots of souvenir boutiques there too. I loved it.

Got all 3 things - If getting to the Equator is important, than going to the Intinan is a must. IMO, it was important. The museum is nice, and I enjoyed cultural exhibits. The ‘science’ demonstrations are silly, but what is wrong with silly fun. I was over stimulated by Mitad del Mundo, but the craft beer museum was my happy place. Casa Agave was really nice, and they did a great job explaining about agave’s importance to the region. Michilada tasted like somebody put juice in my beer, but I haven’t seen it anywhere else.

Great Tour! - Great tour! Had a lot of fun at all of the stops. The intiñan museum was very informative and was a lot of doing all of the experiments at the equator. The middle of the world monument was very beautiful. I highly recommend upgrading the tour to go to casa agave if you like agave/tequila. Unforgettable day!

Stop at all three options - It’s an easy way to get out of the city center and experience some pretty amazing sights. Mitad del Mundo has a charming village of shops and restaurants surrounding the huge monument. The Intinan Equator Museum really stole the show as far as zero latitude goes. Such an interesting, well done museum with guides who are very enthusiastic about the topics they present, especially physics at a the equator. We took the additional stop at Casa Agave to learn more about the distillation of the alcohol but got so much more. There is nothing left unused from the plant and this business is all about conservation and keeping cultural traditions alive. Not to be missed.

Excellent - The tour provided by the company was very good. The guide was Diana, who was quite kind to everyone and very clear in her explanations in both Spanish and English. I required her help because, being a hop on hop off tour, I wanted to take time for another activity and she advised me about it.

Very reliable and professional - This trip was so fun. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and offered historic information in both English and Spanish. Mitad del Mundo is a staple part of a trip to Ecuador!

Mitad del Mundo was great! Tour did not include Casa Agave as listed - The tour bus was really nice - double decker. Things seemed quite organized at first and we got handouts with schedules and everything. The info given on the bus was great The tour at the Intinen Museum was AWESOME! I learned so much and it was genuinely super interesting. It was confusing to figure out how to get from the museum to the Mitad del Mundo monument. We had to do this on our own and the guide gave brief instructions, but I still got lost. There weren't really signs to guide you. The reason I give it 4 stars is because on the Viator description, it says my tour was supposed to include some sort of agave tasting at CASA AGAVE. The original bus guide even mentioned this that some tours included this. It seemed like you could pay for a cheaper version that only included the museum + monument. The guide told us to meet at the meeting point near the monument at 5:30. The driver was about 10 minutes late and I started to worry that we were in the wrong spot, but the bus eventually came. Then, the bus sat there for another 10 minutes before departing (not sure why). I assumed the driver would take us to the final spot on the tour CASA AGAVE, but I eventually realized he was just taking us all the way back to the meeting point. He didn't talk to us or ask any questions about which tour people were doing. I don't really care about missing the agave thing because I don't even drink, but it seemed like I should have paid less for the tour if that wasn't included. Or maybe there was a miscommunication with the bus driver. Either way, it was confusing.

Tour yes, this company depends how many of you there are - The two sites visited on this tour are a worthwhile visit whilst in Quito. However, this tour is $10 more expensive booking here than directly with the bus company so i felt hard done by when i saw their pricing. Also, this company only provides transportation to and from this site, so whilst this is perfect for solo travelers, it becomes much cheaper if there are multiple people to just share an uber to and from the site and pay the $5 entrance fees. I do appreciate the flexibility by the tour company as i was delayed to the bus and they kindly booked me onto a later leaving tour on the same day without any hassles.

Partially fine - We booked this tour expecting to visit both Mitad del Mundo and Museo Intiñan. However, neither TripAdvisor nor the travel agency informed us that Mitad del Mundo would close earlier due to the Christmas holiday. As a result, we were unable to visit it. On a positive note, we had a great experience at Museo Intiñan, which was open and very enjoyable. Unfortunately, since Mitad del Mundo was already closed by the time we arrived, we could not evaluate or experience that part of the tour as advertised. We believe this information should have been clearly communicated in advance so travelers can make informed decisions, especially during holiday periods.
