Pasochoa Hike - Excellent route, enjoyed alternative route back, good birding. Ruminahui Hike - Excellent! Cotopaxi Glacier Hike - Good way to finish the trip. Excellent guide & driver, accommodations excellent and food good. Consider offering optional extensions to itinerary to allow summit of Cotopaxi.

Hi Emma

Thank you for the note and for an UNBELIEVABLE trip!! Everything was letter perfect and you simply could not have done it better!!

Yesterday in CUZ the 4 of us were discussing what a great job you did and we would like to immediately offer you our services as a reference for any future potential customers you have. That is if a potential customer would like to talk to someone who has used Original Ecuador before then feel free to use us as a reference!

We will send you a more detailed debrief later (with more pictures of course) but it is safe to say your organization gets a 5 Star rating from us.

You made our 25th anniversary trip a celebration we will never forget! Thank you

More later.

Hi Emma,

Just wanted to say that our trip to the Galapagos, Machu Picchu and Cusco was fantastic. It exceeded all expectations! The guides were knowledgeable, friendly and caring! The crew on the Beluga were outstanding!

Special kudos to Raul. I have bad knees due to Rhuematoid Arthritis and vertigo! So, the climbing in Machu Picchu was, at times, challenging. Raul was patient and understanding. Due in large measure to him, I stood at the top of the Sun Gate!

Thanks again for everything you did to make our 25th anniversary trip so very, very memorable.

Warm Regards!

Hey Emma,

I just wanted to say a huge thank you, to you and Veronica, for reuniting me with my passport and bag in Ecuador! The trip itself was fantastic, an eye opening trip! It was great to meet you, luckily my passport arrived in time just on the last night before we flew out! Although staying a little longer would've been more enjoyable than a 10 hour flight!

See you soon.

Hi Veronica,

We're very happy to write a review as we enjoyed our walking trip very much.

Our guide amazed us with his knowledge of the history, wildlife and geological features of the areas we visited. The landscapes included cloud forests, crater lakes and erupting volcanoes. Just an amazing, personalised trip that gave us a wonderful glimpse of Ecuador.

Cheers!

What a memorable trip! We had a fabulous time, thanks so much for all of your help organizing it and all of the fantastic suggestions, the itinerary was great and everything went smoothly. We appreciated all of your attention to detail & great suggestions. Thanks Veronica for rescuing Erin's stuffed monkey. Mikki was a great guide - flexible, knowledgeable and punctual. All drivers were also punctual and professional. If you put Original Ecuador on Trip Advisor I would be very happy to post a review.

An amazing holiday that will never be forgotten. The itinerary was well planned with every lodge / hotel providing a different experience! Great value for money too. Andres’s knowledge was phenomenal and I’ve learnt so much. It was also great to have Emma and Emilia with us.
