Educational and spooky all at once! - Our tour guide gave us a fantastic history of Ecuador and Quito. He also shared a number of very interesting myths as well as some of the darker side of history. Learning about history this way makes it very fun and exciting. We highly recommend this tour for anyone who enjoys history with a few ghost stories mixed in.
