    I did this tour on my first day in Quito. Its a good introduction to the old town and the fruit, chocolate and ice cream tasting are fun. We learned a lot about the city and saw some important sites.

    I had an excellent walking tour of the Quito Old Town with Urban Adventures guide, Marcelo. We met at Teatro Sucre and walked to the nearby Mercado Central Market. Besides seeing local fresh produce for sale, Marcelo introduced me to the sharmans and it was interesting to hear about the medicinal plants they were selling. We explored the food stalls selling distinctive Ecuadorian dishes like cows head soup and other animal parts we might not eat back home! On the way to Plaza de la Independencia, we visited some of the churches and Marcelo explained the influence of the Spanish & the Jesuit Order on church architecture. We climbed the San Francisco bell tower for a view across the city. Marcelo also took me to try some local foods such as the tamal in a lovely traditional shop in San Augustin. We also had sorbet made the old fashioned way (stirred over ice & salt) from a stall in the courtyard of Palacio Arzobispal. It was a really interesting few hours walking around the Old Town and I learned a lot about the history of Quito.

    I had a wonderful tour of the Old Town with Ana. It was the perfect introduction to Quito and its culture. We visited a market, tasted wonderful food and visited the main sites of the Old Town. Ana as a guide was very knowledgeable, a real pleasure and went above and beyond. I highly recommend this tour.

    Highly recommended. Food tour with market visit, chocolate tasting and lots of information about the country, people and the city. I was lucky enough to travel alone with the guide. He spoke fluent English, was super-friendly and likeable. There was also the right amount of culture with church attendance and excellent explanations.

    The tour was a great introduction to Quito. Marcelo was an informative and friendly guide. We started with a tour of the market, before moving to the historical area. A break for ice cream, with some local flavours on offer, was included.

  • Fantastic Quito Old Town Walking Tour

    I did the Intrepid Old Town Quito tour with Marcelo. The tour was so informative. Marcelo is very knowledgeable and his English is great. Most of the tour was outside but he did take me to see the museum at the famous San Francisco Basilica at San Francisco Plaza in Quito's Old Town. He also took me to the Mercado Central (central market) and explained the traditional foods, including exotic fruits. I learned about a lot of traditional foods and how they are prepared. I believe most tours don't include this. Marcelo was very knowledgeable about Ecuadoran history and the history of the buildings we were seeing. As I have a particular interest in modern art, he recommended a couple of museums for me to visit. When the tour ended, he explained to me how I could get back to my hotel in central Quito using the fabulous new Quito Metro. The Metro is safe and modern--much nicer than any I've seen in the US. He also recommended a vegetarian restaurant in my neighborhood and told me a safe place to buy some traditional foods (specifically the Ecuadoran corn snacks). I highly recommend Marcelo and this tour.

  • Dancing Brooms, Tasty Tamales, and a Tour to Remember

    Marcello treated us to a fantastic and private tour through the local markets, blending history, culture, and flavor into a truly memorable experience. We sampled fruits native to Ecuador, got a crash course in traditional medicinal herbs, and soaked up stories of the area's rich past—all while comfortably stopping along the way to sit and chat in historic spots. One of the highlights? Ice cream and tamales at San Augustin—unique, delicious, and served with a side of spontaneous street sweeper dance magic that stole the show. We absolutely loved this tour and highly recommend it to anyone visiting. One small note for the tour operator: We noticed that booking at the last minute would have given us a significantly lower price—just something to keep in mind for future travelers.

    Luis was my guide and he was amazing! He shared the food, culture, and the history of Ecuador and Quito with me on this walking tour. I appreciated his desire to show off the city he was born in. I was the only one on this tour on a Wednesday morning. I don't speak Spanish, so it was great to speak to someone who spoke English fluently and could translate for me at the same time. I would highly recommend this tour.
