“Great Tour in Quito”
Kevin took us on a fantastic tour through the old town, including a chocolate tasting. All in all, it was the best free walking tour we've done in South America so far. Kevin was a very personable and funny guide who gave us a great first glimpse of Quito!

The tour was very interesting, it takes you to some less traditional places in Quito. We got the chance to taste many local sweets and spirits. Our guide was funny and knowledgeable.

“Not to be missed….. a brillant tour by Vivi”
This tour absolutely exceeded all our expectations. Vivi was a pure delight and obviously enjoyed sharing the delights of her home city Quito. She was so warm, welcoming and engaging throughout. Viva shared her historical and Ecuadorian knowledge with perfect English, added in many fun facts, introduced us to the treasures of local chocolate, sweets, language and drinks and even had us all dancing with traditional masks! The tour was full of learning, laughter and great memories were made. Thank you Vivi for your enthusism, joy, photos and recipes xxx

“Excellent tour”
The tour with Vivi was really refreshing and full of interesting places. She gave us a lot of information; we did multiple delicious tastings and even danced a little. Three and a half hours seemed like a lot, but even in the bad weather, as there was a lot of rain, we really enjoyed every minute. We can only recommend this tour, especially with Vivi as a guide.

“Quito Historic Walking Tour ”
Our guide Daniel was very knowledgeable and informative. He gave us very good insights into what we saw and experienced. Example-when we were at the “Basilica of Voto Nacional” my wife called it a Cathedral. Daniel said “No that is a Basilica, do you know the difference between a Basilica and a Cathedral”? Of course we all said no and Daniel explained “Basilica’s belongs to the Vatican in Rome and Cathedrals belong to the country that built them”.

“Best Walking Tour I’ve Taken”
This was a great walking tour of Quito. You got to see and experience so much in just a short amount of time. The historical sites that Fernando took us to and taught us about covered everything from culture, food, politics, and history. He was a great guide and his English was excellent. I appreciated all of the stops we made and did not feel pressured to buy from any vendors. He gave great recomendations for places to eat, museums, and other activities to try while in Quito. Highly recommend!

We Really enjoyed our morning finding out all about Quito. Our guide Malena was excellent and so knowledgeable, her passion and enthusiasm for her city really shone through. The tour is not just about history but also has loads of stops along the way to show Ecuadorian culture, like the art museum and craft shop along with a traditional dance display and lots of tasty food stops. 10 out of 10 would recommend to a friend!

“Super god oplevelse”
Min kæreste og jeg havde den bedste tur rundt i Quito. Vi så virkelig meget flot arkitektur, smagte deres nationaldrik og spiste flere lokale specialiteter. Alt i alt en virkelig god tur, som vi kan takke vores søde guide Daniel for!! Vi var så heldige at have ham for os selv, og havde så meget på hjerte. Han lærte os om det lokale sprog og var nysgerrig på at lære os at kende, og så var han virkelig sjov at tilbringe dagen med!!

“Great Intro to Quito!”
Kevin was my amazing guide for this tour! He messaged me through the FreeTour app the day before to confirm and give me some advice on what to bring with me.
Kevin was very fun and knowledgeable! He taught me a dance and let me try all kinds of little snacks, sweets, ice cream, liquors, and chocolate along the tour. His English was fantastic and he answered any questions I had.
This is a great way to get a good introduction to Quito and especially the old town. I highly recommend it!
