Great Day Trip With Knowledgable Guide - Daniel was right on time and exactly where he said he would be. He was thoughtful and very intelligent. He gave great advice and even gave us options as to what to do/how to spend our time. You can tell he is a caring person and it showed with how much he loves his city.

A Tour That Hits the Mark—Even If the Equator Doesn’t - We were picked up right on time by our guide, Daniel, and headed straight to the Middle of the World monument. Thanks to his smart planning, we arrived just after 9 a.m.—before the crowds—and breezed through without waiting. He even scored us senior discounts, which was a pleasant surprise! Daniel explained that the equator line at the monument isn’t actually accurate—it was calculated before GPS technology—but he didn’t stop there. He took us to a nearby museum where the real equator is located. There, the museum guides gave us fun, hands-on science demos that we could participate in. We laughed, we learned, and yes, we even balanced an egg. Afterward, we rode the cable car, where we got another discount—thanks again, Daniel! While the view is gorgeous, there’s not a lot to do up there besides sip coffee and take photos. Luckily, Daniel livened things up by pointing out landmarks in the distance and sharing local knowledge that made everything more meaningful. All in all, this was a fantastic tour. Daniel was not only friendly and professional, but his insights gave us a deeper understanding of both Quito and the equator. Highly recommended!

Wonderful Quito tour - Our guide Christian was phenomenal and more than we could have asked for. He was on time, very knowledgeable, and very excited about everything he showed us. He handled all of our questions, went above and beyond, and taught us so much about the Ecuadorian culture and history. This tour was really fantastic starting wirh the cable ride, small hike, middle of the world and the museums part of it, and ended the tour with a great experience of the historical downtown. Wonderful day!

Great trip - Nice trip with fantastic guide Christian who was extremely knowledgeable. Views from the cable car are incredible. The short walk at the top (it’s a personalised tour so you can decide how far you want to go) is good with more amazing views. We then visited both equator line sites which was interesting.

Isom Family - Weather could impact your trip. The top of the cable car ride was quite chilly. Food service the was slow. Equator museum was interesting and you are on te real Equator there. Mitigation del Mundo is the place for shopping and food. Many places to choose from. Our guide, Meesa and driver, Bolivar were excellent. 5 stars. Would request them again.

Excellent day trip! - Our final day in Quito was extraordinary thanks to tour guide Daniel. Very knowledgeable- especially on birding in the cloud forest- and friendly. We enjoyed the day seeing these sites in the Quito environs.

Christian was hands-down... - Christian was hands-down an amazing guide for our birding trip, the "Middle of the Earth" monument, and the Cable Car. His birding knowledge was worth noting – he'd spot and identify birds so easily. But it wasn't just birds. He really knew his stuff when it came to Ecuador's nature, especially the volcanoes and mountains; it was clear he had a deep understanding. He was also incredibly patient with us, never rushing anything. Plus, he just added those little extras that made the whole experience even better. Definitely recommend the tour if you have time in Quito.
