"We had a lovely day with Cristian. He is pleasant, has a good command of the English language and is a wealth of information. He would gives us an overview and then he left it up to us ask specific questions, which we really enjoyed."
"We had an amazing time with Cristian eating our way across Quito. We would never have experienced the wide variety of excellent local dishes on our own. Cristian was knowledgeable about the history of the ingredients, cooking techniques, and general history of Quito. We were very pleased we booked this tour!"
"Cristian gave us so much more than just a food tour. He pointed out several landmarks, cultural points, and explained many interesting things about the area. We sampled lots of Ecuadorian foods and had many different stops. Cristian was a great guide! We highly recommend him! "
"Cristian was super knowledgeable not only about food, but also about the historial aspect of Quito. The food tour was amazing, everything was delicious and Cristian really made us feel looked after with our dietary restrictions. If you’re thinking of going to Quito definitely book this tour with Cristian, you won’t regret it. "
"We had a fantastic food tour with Cristian. He is incredibly knowledgeable and will give you opportunities to taste some of the best local foods you may not find on your own as a tourist. As a cook himself, he is very particular and has put together a great tour of wonderful tastings. Hint: come hungry! You may want to have a very small breakfast before joining him for 3 hours of tasty delights. "

When you hit the road and land in a new city like Quito, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.
Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Quito spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Quito.
The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.
But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Quito, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Quito awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.
So, next time you're in Quito, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Quito. Get ready to explore like a local!
