This guys are crazy as hell! I think it was the best tour I've ever had in my life, would really recommend it
Best experience in Quito

I spent 2 weeks in Quito and this was the highlight! Esteban (my guide) tailored the tour for my interests. We explored the parks, went to the botanical garden, had a chocolate tasting, and got to see many parts of the city! It is a large city and biking around with a knowledgeable guide is essential to truly know Quito. This is a must-do for anyone visiting!
cool tour

Great bike tour of Quito. They supplied an excellent tour guide plus a safety person (to ride behind, stop traffic etc.). The tour guide, Catalina, was very nice and knowledgeable about the city and history. The tour included a chocolate tasting and a visit to the local market to try produce local to Ecuador. Catalina was also great at giving us different options for what to see during the tour. Great way to see the city and great tour company.
Active, fun and different!

This was a great tour/activity. I personally enjoy riding bikes and getting to know a city on two wheels. The tour is about 4 hours long, and it can get challenging at times, with some of the hills plus the altitude. But overall, very doable and enjoyable. I was the only person for the tour that day and Carlos, my tour guide, was informative and funny as well. I definitely saw some part of Quito that I would have not seen otherwise. I enjoyed visiting the Santa Clara market and the Carolina park. The chocolate tasting was awesome and the pizza/beer at the end was well worth it. I got to meet the very nice owners of this bike our company. Both ladies were very welcoming and accommodating. The only suggestion I have is maybe to have a little more time at each stop to explore even more, like the market. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for something active, fun and different!
