Excellent Private Tour in Quito — Perfect for Families - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Today we had a private tour in Quito, and it was truly one of the best experiences of our trip 💛 Everything was perfectly organized — comfortable, relaxed, and very attentive to our wishes. A very special thank you to our guide Jonathan, who was absolutely amazing. Jhonathan shared the history of Quito in a very engaging, clear, and interesting way, making the tour enjoyable from start to finish. We visited: ✨ a panoramic viewpoint with breathtaking views of the city, ✨ the city center, ✨ the beautiful and atmospheric Old Town, ✨ a museum, ✨ and the iconic Equator Monument (Mitad del Mundo) — a truly unique place to experience 🌍 We were traveling with our 6-year-old daughter, and Jonathan was incredible with her 🥰 He played with her, watched over her with great care, and explained things in a way that was fun and easy for a child to understand. This made the entire tour very comfortable and enjoyable for our whole family. Throughout the day, we felt safe, well taken care of, and genuinely welcomed. The atmosphere was warm, friendly, and personal — exactly what you hope for in a private tour. We wholeheartedly recommend this company and Jonathan to anyone who wants to discover Quito with heart, comfort, and authentic local insight. We would gladly choose this tour again and recommend it to friends without hesitation 💫

If you want to get to know Quito in a complete way, you have found your perfect tour! - I took the ride with Jhonatan and it was an amazing experience. I was able to know a lot about the history of Quito, various curiosities he had, plus many tips of restaurants and places that he recommended according to my profile. Jonathan was excellent, not to mention the astral high, animation in talking about his country and all its culture. I recommend it to anyone who wants to know more about Ecuador.

Great bike tour from Jonathan and Paolo - Jonathan and Paolo offered a wonderful tour. We learned so much about Quito and Ecuador: the history, culture, food, and customs—and got a great overview of the city. A bicycle is always a great way to see a city; and the bikes worked well. I highly recommend this tour!

Walking Quito's Wonders - I had an amazing experience biking through the Old Town of Quito. Through the historic streets made me feel connected to the city’s past, and every stop was unforgettable. I visited iconic places like the Basilica, San Francisco Square, Plaza Grande, and the colorful La Ronda, each full of history and charm. The views from the higher streets were incredible. It was fun, safe, and full of culture — truly one of the best ways to experience Quito’s historic center, cable car and Mitad del Mundo, I highly recommend it!

A very fulfilling our of Quito - My sister and I had one day to see as much of Quito as possible and this tour enabled that. I felt like I had just enough time at each site and didn't feel rushed. Jona was the best guide we could have asked for- knowledgable, entertaining, and efficient. Pick-up and drop off at each site was well coordinated with the driver, which made visiting so many sites in one day easier than the itinerary reads. We learned so much about the city-- it's history, people, and culture.

My trip to Quito and Mindo! - This was an amazing experience! Jhonatan was our guide and did a great job. i enjoyed seeing Quito's historical sites, and culture. In the tour we saw various places with stunning Spanish colonial architecture, painted in vibrant pastel colors. amazing for sightseeing and photography. This tour was enriching, appropriate for all ages, and had many opportunities for great photos with family or friends! I would recommend this tour, Jhonatan made sure everyone had a good time, and was very familiar with the sites we saw, he informed us about the history of the sites in both english (for the english speakers in our group) and in Spanish! 10/10 experience!

This Quito tour exceeded all our expectations — set the bar high for the rest of our trip! - We had a free day in Quito before heading to the Galápagos, and honestly, I didn’t expect much—but the tour turned out to be surprisingly captivating! It was such a pleasant experience that it really set the bar high for the rest of our trip. Jonathan, our guide, took us to amazing places like the Basilica, the Historic Center, the Cable Car, and the Middle of the World, where we got to do several fun experiments. He genuinely cared about our well-being and made sure we were enjoying every part of the tour. Since it was a private tour, we also had the flexibility to do things we wanted—like stopping along the way to taste some delicious empanadas. Jonathan was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, and the driver he worked with was equally kind, courteous, and knew the city very well. Overall, it was a truly wonderful experience, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Quito.
