    Overall it was an extremely well organised tour and communication with torradar staff was excellent. Occasionally driver pick-up times were changed at short notice and on one occasion the driver was 30 minutes late, so only just made the bus in time.

    Ecuador is one of the most beautiful countries that I have visited. Its landscape is gorgeous. Its people are friendly and honest. The country is affordable. The food is delicious. The tour was fun! The local tour guides were extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the country. The experiences were varied. We visited cities, parks, churches, mountains, restaurants, ruins, markets, and even a school. It was very fun. The tour was organized well by Jeferson. He made sure all my questions were answered before and during the trip. He was always available day and night. Airport pickups and drop offs were very helpful as well. Give Ecuador a chance. You will not regret it. Responsible Travel will take care of you.

    We had a great trip to Peru and Equator Aoril ~May of 2025. Everything was arranged according to what was stated and planned- all pickups be it at the airport or for the day trips were on time. We had great tour guides. My only suggestion would be better rooms in some of the hotels that were picked- in two of the hotels we got rooms where they could have done better- Guayaquil and Cusco being the two places. Shout out to our tour planner Ronnie- did a great job and was very responsive- thanks!
