    Great insight. Alejandro, our guide, was brilliant and took us on a comprehensive 8 days tour. We packed a lot in: traveling by his private car, too. We highly recommend the tour and learnt a huge amount about Ecuador history. First rate!

    We are Spanish and we contacted Guidecuador travel to organize our trip to India. We met Sofia who was our permanent reference. Sofia is synonymous of professionalism, kindness and disposition. She was always attentive to our needs. The trip was a success from planning and development to the end. We would travel again with guidecuador without hesitation.

    Alejandro was simply the BEST and made each and every day of our week long tour exceptional. He chose unbelievable accommodations that were unique and memorable and he knew the business owners and locals everywhere we went! Alejandro kept us on schedule so we could maximize our time there but remained flexible to meet the needs of our wanderlust and spur of the moment desires! We felt completely safe and "pampered" at all times. He is extremely knowledgeable of all things Ecuador, it's people, culture and environment.

    Alejandro took me and my partner on an 8 day tour around mainland Ecuador. We visited Quito, trekked through the beautiful Andes, climbed a volcano, biked down a volcano, explored the Amazon jungle, built a raft out of trees and floated down the river, relaxed at incredible hot springs, saw so many cool animals, learned about local cultures, experienced local markets, and were thrilled by canyoning and and rafting in Baños. Ecuador has so much to offer! Truly an incredible place to visit. Our entire tour was completely planned by GuidEcuador, and our guide Alejandro was the best we could have asked for! Everything was arranged for us, and he was so flexible to make our trip perfect for us. He allowed us to have such an amazing experience and took any and all stress of travelling and planning away. Alejandro and his crew are extremely knowledgable and were always striving to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our time to the fullest. We ended up having a private tour, just my partner and I, and our guide toured us around the country in his personal SUV. He was a great driver, we always felt save, and were able to save so much time allowing us to experience so much more of what this beautiful country has to offer. Thank you Alejandro! I would highly recommend travelling with GuidEcuador through Ecuador, and we can’t wait to travel again to Colombia, Peru, and Galápagos with GurdEcaudor soon!

    Alejandro was a fantastic guide for my friend and I. We went to a jungle lodge for two nights that he accompanied us to. He went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable, unique, and a true immersion in the culture. Highly recommend him as a guide!

    We had the most remarkable family tour with Guidecuador Travel. Not only everything was perfect, but we felt, in every instance, that our guide Alejandro and his local guides truly cared about us, both the kids and adults, and did their best to make this trip memorable. For our well-traveled children (aged 9 and 12) this definitely has become the most eye-opening, adventurous, and stunning journey of their life - something they will remember, draw upon, and cherish for many years to come. For adults, we were pleasantly surprised by the diversity of our trip: from the Andes trough the Jungle, from ever-changing and filled with surprises meals offered every day , We definitely will be back to South America! Thank you again..
