      Long but worth it!
      It was a long drive, as expected, but the trip was worth it! The views on the drive were amazing, and we saw many vicuñas and a fox on our hike up Chimborazo. Would recommend!

      Amazing
      The price paid by other tour members was 55 usd not 79 as advertised on tripadvisor. Other than that the tour was amazing!

      Great Trip to See Chimborazo
      This is a great way to see Mt. Chimborazo from Quito. It comes with breakfast before we get to the mountain and lunch after. The hike to the refuge is challenging, but well worth it. The views are are spectacular. Our tour guide was terrific.

      Adventure Time
      This was a great experience. The hikes were beautiful and breathtaking (literally and figuratively). The accommodations were great during overnight. Our guides, Daniel and Patricio, were fantastic. They spoke great English and were a wealth of knowledge when it comes to their country. They knew every plant and animal while on the trail, and detailed history of the cities and cultures that were around us. Highly recommended.

      Great for Shopping
      Great tour overall. It is shopping intensive and great for those looking to buy a lot of local and leather goods. Our guide was great and gave us plenty of time at each stop. The tour does have quite a bit of time on the road but the views are lovely. The lagoon was quite popular and a great place to take pictures. I would do this tour again if I was with someone who liked to shop for local handicrafts, leather goods, and unique gift items.

      best way to go to the Chimborazo
      I had a very good hike with them. They took you from Baños to Chimborazo in a van, and from the first refuge you walk 50 minutes to get to the Condor Cocha Lagoon. The guide is very promptly and kind, he answered every question I had. The downhill was so good. The guide is near you in the van just in case. Highly recommended.

    Obviously the main attraction was Quilotoa but what a difference it made to stop at the market and a family’s home. The ride was long so the stops were helpful in that regard but they were also fun to do!
