Wonderful in every way

David was amazing! Extremely knowledgeable, fun to talk with, and took me to some local places for authentic Ecuadorian food. Cloud forest is gorgeous, and honestly, rain just added to the experience. He was so kind and willing to help when I had a tough time on some other f the steeper parts of the trail due to altitude change and post-op ankle. Tour was completely tailored to my needs and desires. Roberto, the driver, was also great - felt very safe on some very sketchy, curvy roads. Highly recommend!!!

An amazing day!

This was my favorite tour of the week. It was jam-packed with wonderful and exciting experiences led by an excellent tour guide. We went to the hummingbird sanctuary, which was a fun unique experience, I zip-lined, sky-biked, hiked the waterfalls, had a delicious lunch in Mindo, and took the chocolate tour. I highly recommend!!!

Wonderful trip to the rainforest

A wonderful adventure. Swimming in the Nambilla waterfalls as delightful and refreshing. The zip line/cable basket over the valley was spectacular and felt completely safe. Really enjoyed seeing hummingbirds and all of the other colorful bird varieties.

Lunch was delicious and felt extremely local/authentic!
