“Very Enjoyable”
I had a solo tour with Sebastian and really enjoyed it. Since the other tour member didn't show, it was one on one, and Sebastian customized things according to my interests and questions. In addition to showing me buildings and plazas of historical interest, he pointed out several shops with notable products for sale which I can come back to later. I really enjoyed stopping in the place for a demonstration of how to prepare a pour over Coffee and a chocolate tea-- along with free samples, of course!

“Excellent Historic Quito tour”
Dayanna was an excellent tour guide. She was very knowledge about the history of Quito. We were also able to taste some Ecuadorean candy and chocolates. Both had some very interesting and unique flavors. I highly recommend her tour.

“Great Stroll around the Old City of Quito”
Dayanna was great as a tour guide. It was only myself on this Saturday afternoon tour and it was almost 3 hours. Dayanna knew her history and he city and was able to show me areas that I would not have thought of going into. The sweets, chocolate and ice cream tasting was a bonus. We were lucky with the weather as there were only a few showers at the start and end. I recommend this tour

“Very good, highly recommendable!”
We really enjoyed the tour, we did it in Spanish but could easily shift to English when we had questions. Daniel was a great guide and we could explore the centre of Quito mixing history, language and curiosities. Unfortunately one person from our group was missing because she was sick. I highly recommend it!

“Tour óptimo de Quito! ”
Recomiendo a 100% este tour, que nos propuso Seba! Los lugares por donde pasamos eran muy bellos. Terminar con una degustacion de chocolate gourmet, con todas las explicaciones relacionadas, fue la mejor conclusión posible para el tour.

“Quito tour”
Had a great tour with Sebastian today around Quito..Detailed narrative all the way through covering all topics related to Ecuador and Quito. I wouldn't have discovered half of what was shown hadn't I done the tour. We all went for a Ceviche lunch after the tour and everyone I felt has a great time.

“Mas articulado”
El lugar de encuentro no estaba claro (2 entradas a la basilica), solucionado.
La visita al museo de arte colonial no pudo realizarse por razones tecnicas: los lockers estaban ocupados. La visita al museo de la casa de la moneda sin guia, Sebastian se hizo cargo pero declaro no conocerlo bien.
Hemos cancelado el tour de Quiro de cholas y chulas, los puntos de interes se repiten y tbn las actividades (degustacion de helado y cafe en la Ronda)
El guia fue bilingüe, muy bien!

“Bonita experiencia ”
El guía es conocedor de la historia de Ecuador, amable y servicial. Me tomo muchas fotos con la cámara de el, que espero me lleguen al correo. Llo que me pareció extraño de la guianza fue que terminó a la hora de haber comenzado que fue las 11 y 30 AM y en el calendario parecía que hasta las 2 pm. Si es importante que recomienden museos gratuitos para una vez terminado el recorrido, el turista vaya a visitarlos.
