We got to have hummingbirds feed off our hands. The zipline was also fun and exhilarating. All around memorable

I did two excursions with CarpeDM : Quilotoa and Mindo. It's really comfortable because everything is included : transport, guide, lunch. I've been to Quilotoa and Mindo with Alejandro. He's really a good guide. He knows very well the nature and animals from Ecuador, so he'll give you good explanations about what you're going to visit. He's really nice, speaks very well English. Muy buena onda! Gracias por todo!

Our day trip to Mindo with Alejandro was incredible! He was knowledgeable, friendly and showed us an incredible experience. We learnt so much and even helped spot some Tucans for us and hold butterflies! We were apprehensive at first for paying for the day trip vs doing it ourselves, but we were so thankful and happy with our decision after an amazing day. The trip far superseded our cotapaxi trip (although also great) Thanks so much!

We had a magical day in Mindo, seeing hummingbirds, butterflies, doing the waterfall trek and a tour of a chocolate farm. Alejandro was absolutely brilliant, the best tour guide I had in Ecuador - informative, helpful, lovely and chatty. He helped us understand mindo and we learnt a lot about Ecuador too. He also helped us to spot Toucans! Great experience.

Joined a group as a single traveler. It was a great experience with many choices and not feeling rushed. Our guide and driver were great. And, the owner Paul communicated well.

An amazing day trip from Quito. Our guide, Alejandro, was very knowledgeable and interesting telling us many facts about the landscapes, plants and history of the area. I would recommend visiting the birds, ziplining and going to the chocolate factory.

Lincoln is a really good guide and he knows a lot about Ecuadorean history, traditions and culture. It is a very interesting tour and we were happy especially for the ziplines going over the Amazon Cloud Forest with beautiful seen sights
