Perfect Tour of Old Town Quito

Xavier is a great tour guide. His love for his city and knowledge of its history shows during the entire tour. He made sure we were safe and well-taken care of. With plenty of time to answer all of our questions and to take photos. When we returned to Quito from Galapagos, we had Xavier take us on three more day tours before we flew back home.

The Old Town Walking Tour is a Great Way to Start Your Visit!

This tour is a great way to start any visit to Quito. Our tour guide, Miriam, was wonderful! She shared a lot of interesting information and was very warm and welcoming. We saw quite a bit, got to enjoy a specialty drink with a city view, and learned about how their chocolate is made -- which was a highlight. I highly recommend this tour! Miriam's terrific and Latin Adventures is a great company. On our second day, they took us on the Mitad Del Mundo Tour, which was outstanding.

Walking Centro Historico Quito

I was lucky enough to have a private tour of the Old Town in Quito with Fernando. Quito’s UNESCO world heritage status is well deserved. Fernando knew every crook and cranny of the Old Town. He was very professional and friendly. His English is excellent and he helped me with my Spanish. His knowledge of Ecuador’s history was amazing. In four hours we went to churches, museums, plazas and markets. He took me to a market where I was the only tourist. It was four hours of walking but it was over i...read more

A Wonderful Introduction

My friends and I absolutely loved this tour! We were the only 4 in the group and Alex was amazing as our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. We truly felt like we were visiting the Old Town with a friend. We especially loved the stops at Mercado Central and the chocolate shop in La Ronda! If you're looking for a great walk through Quito's Old Town, look no more. This is the trip to book!
