This tour gave us an interesting introduction to Quito and Ecuador. The guide and driver were both very friendly and shared a lot of insights into the country, its history and culture.
The visit to the equator museum was fun and very interesting, even if you couldn’t believe everything they told you (e.g. the demonstration of water going down a drain on the equator).
It was great to explore the old town of Quito and to have a very interesting discussion with our guide over lunch. The only downside of this tour was the terrible traffic congestion around the old town. This caused our six-hour tour to last more than eight hours which was a bit too much. We were told this terrible traffic only happens on Saturdays so I would recommend avoiding this tour on a Saturday.
