Informatieve tour door Cuenca

Tomas onze guide heeft veel kennis over Cuenca en Ecuador. Hij vertelde veel en liet ons veel mooie plaatsen zien, waar wij anders niet zouden komen.

Highly informative guide

Our time went by quickly as we had a highly informative guide who explained a lot about Ecuadorian culture, history, finances, etc. The stops were interactive. The guide knew the best places to get great photos.

Best tour in Cuenca

Tomas was a fantastic tour guide and is very knowledgeable. He showed me some very beautiful buildings and told me all about the history of Cuenca and also part of Ecuador’s history too. Everyone seemed to know Tomas! He was very patient. The tour went on for a long time but it was broken up nicely with coffee breaks and beers. Tomas did not rush anything. It was just myself on the tour but it was not an issue. Tomas was very easy to talk to.

Great introduction to Cuenca!

Thomas was an excellent guide! He provided lots of history and insight into Ecuador. The tour was an easy pace with plenty of opportunities for us to ask questions and see things beyond a typical tourist visit. Highly recommend!

Tomás was extremely knowledgeable, welcomed questions, and thoughtfully adapted the tour to focus on what we were most interested in seeing. One of the highlights was tasting some of the best coffee, chocolate, and local beer we’ve had—each stop added something special to the experience. And definitely try the soda...read more
