We loved visiting a family home and learning to cook beside a wonderful Ecuadorian home cook. The food was great throughout the tour. Urban Adventures never lets me down!

A great way to see the highlights of the Old Town. Our guide, Pablo, was the best - friendly, informative and fun. We loved visiting the Church of La Campania de Jesus, sampling fabulous local ice cream, and seeing the metalsmith (artist) at work. We took this tour the day we arrived, and it was a fantastic introduction to Quito!

Urban Adventures has proven time and again to be the best way to dive deep into the local culture of a foreign country. In Quito our guide was vastly knowledgeable and showed us things that we never would have found on our own. We've done more than 10 Urban Adventures tours now and they are truly a top notch organization.

I can't really complete this feedback - Quito was shut down because of riots. My dealings with the team was just fine, they must have been under enormous pressure but responded will and in the way that I hoped they would. I do hope Quito and Ecuador soon return to a stable and happy state.

this trip was fantastic! Pablo was so knowledgeable and I loved cooking in Gracielas home with her

Our family of 4 had a great day exploring Quito with our guide Pablo! Quito's historic old town is really beautiful, and we enjoyed learning about the history of Quito and Ecuador. The highlight of the excursion was learning about Ecuador's chocolate and the process for converting the cacao into chocolate. The chocolate tasting was also delicious! Exploring some of the side streets and enjoying unique ice cream flavors you'll only find in Eucador was also a lot of fun. Pablo is passionate and knowledgeable about his home country and city! He provided a lot of interesting insight and perspective. Definitely recommend this experience if you want to explore Quito for a day!

Pablo is a passionate Quitonian and I learnt so much from him. His local connections made the tour personal and meaningful.

Our guide was AMAZING! He told us the details of history for hours and we could not get enough. Every place we saw he wove the whole history together, including ancient, colonial to modern. He even got us access to the closed independence square during a trade deal procession. His knowledge was astounding and authentic. He brought the current issues of Ecuador’s elections, currency chance and growing exports to life. We love cultural history, we came for a Galapagos trip but, he made Quito the highlight. If the urban adventure trips are half as good as him, we’re sold on them from now on!

My guide was excellent and definitely had a passion for the culture and history of his country. I thoroughly enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Quito’s countryside and enjoyed the hospitality of our host.
