A very educative tour of Quito

An excellent walking tour with Malena—we learned so much about Quito, with plenty of delicious tastings and hands-on cultural experiences along the way!

Faboulous tour organised by Stefy

We have done many walking tours around the world and this was one of the best ones we had attended. Stefy was informative and enthusiastic about her home city. During the tour, she shared with us her passion for the city as well as local delicacies - and all four of us thought the three hours flew by as there was never a dull moment. We loved trying samples of local chocolate and drinks and we even had fun showing off our terrible dancing skills while hiding our faces under a knitted mask. Stefy gave us a really good idea of places we should explore more thoroughly and all of her recommendations were greatly received. Highly recommend the tour to people visiting Quito.
