Amazing adventure experience! Riding a horse to the Pichincha should be kn everybody's bucket list. Our guide had tremendous knowledge of the land, culture and history of colonial Quito. I'm more than happy to recommend it to anybody.
Amazing horse ride

Diego was our guide. He was great. We needed to adjust our schedule and change a couple of things. He was able to make it all happen. The horse ride was amazing. It was incredible how those horses can handle the ride at over 13,000 feet in elevation.
Interesting!

Our guide Christian, was early and met us inside the hotel lobby. As we drove around the city, he shared his knowledge of Quito and answered all our questions.
At the cable car ride up the Pichincha Volcano mountain side, he explained the geography and plant life change as we ascended. While hiking up the remaining 100 or so yards he kept checking on us to make sure we were all OK due to the high altitude.
Our next stop was the middle of the Earth venue, the Equator. It was a fun and informative visit.
Christian was very informative and personable guide.
