We chose to believe all the terrific reviews on Elizabeth, and we were so pleased we did! We booked a half-day tour with Elizabeth to see the Middle of the World area and a quick view of the Old Town in Quito. We were a family of nine people, with ages ranging from 10-77, and she was able to make the tour fun, engaging, and interesting for each of us. She is clearly smart and knowledgeable about her country, but what we appreciated most about Liz was her flexibility. No request was too small or big; she was happily willing to switch our route on a moment’s notice. Nothing was a problem! Not a bathroom request for the littles in the middle of the highway, not our asking to visit a local market when it wasn’t on the itinerary. She found us terrific coffee and ice cream when we asked to sample them and understood our time constraints with traffic and flights. I don’t think you can possibly book a better guide--I’m so grateful we found Elizabeth for our single day in Quito. Go ahead and book: you will not be disappointed. Just a lovely experience all around. Thank you, Elizabeth!

Visit the most important spots in Quito in a couple of hours
Overview of your Quito tour
If you have a layover in Quito, don't waste your time at the airport, instead of that I invite you to visit the most important spots in the Capital of Ecuador. Quito is a beautiful city, which has the biggest old town in South America. It's located at 2850 meters over sea level. In Quito we have the 4 seasons just in one day, it is in middle of volcanoes and It has nice view of the highest. Quito is known for its treasures of colonial churches, paintings, sculptures and carvings. It is crossed for the equatorial line that divided the world in two hemispheres. I am a Quiteña (native from Quito), that is why I know really well my city and I can show you the most beautiful places, and share with you all my knowledge about Quito, you will enjoy your time visiting around Quito.
