Highly recommended!

Irene_C, Feb 2024

My husband and I a lovely and informative time walking around Quito and Middle of the World tour with Jamie and Angela. They were brialliant hosts to this beautiful city. They were great company, very accomodating, understading and not intrusive at all. Also, we had the most delicious empanadas! The tour went beyond the allocated time by the time we finished at Middle of the World site but Jamie and Angela were patiently waiting and reassuring that we would be in time to catch our flight. We had a great time and highly recommend Jamie and Angela to anyone considering going to Quito.

Middle of the World & So Much More!

Jeff_A, Aug 2023

Absolutely wonderful! Angela(?) and her husband Jamie were very knowledgeable and happy to explain the significance of the sights along the way as well as at each stop. We even had an unplanned stop to watch the changing of the guards at the square in front of the Presidential Palace.

Tours of the cathedrals, and churches was excellent, the middle of the world experience was great and fun for kids of all ages, and the chocolate factory was great for learning the process and tasting afterwards.

Must do in Quito

Christine_P, Nov 2021

One of the best tours we went on our entire trip. The couple who runs this tour was very knowledgable, fit the tour to our requests, and were all around great people to spend the day with! We got to see several churches, have an amazing lunch, chocolate tasting, and see the Middle of the World! The museum at the middle of the world was actually really fun. Better than I would have guessed. We really liked all the "games" we got to do to demonstrate the way the equator changes on each side. The couple gave us great commentary and historical background on everywhere we went and were very knowledgable!

Churches and the Equator

Lisa_R, Feb 2020

What a fabulous day. Jaime and Angela are wonderful guides. Would definitely recommend them for anyone. They are both very knowledgeable about Ecuador, which they both obviously love. The churches, the chocolate, the equator, so much to learn and experience in this beautiful city and country. Jaime and Angela are very flexible with the schedule and will adjust to allow you more time exploring or learning about one thing or another. The churches are not to be missed. I typically do not enjoy learning about history, but Jamie and Angela brought the history alive for me in this working city.

Response from Host, Feb 2020

Dear Lisa: Thank you for your kind words, we are really pleased to know that you enjoyed your time with us, it really means so much to us Thank you again and wish you happy travels!! Kindly, Ángela & Jamie Hally

Highly recommend this tour

Dffry2000, Feb 2020

Highly recommend.. after confirming our booking by email, Jamie and Angela picked us up from our hotel as promised. They took us on a wonderful tour of Quito filling us with local knowledge and history of the city and it’s people. We spent as much time as we wanted wondering around the old town area taking about its history then went for lunch at a local restaurant. In the afternoon we went to the middle of the world to further explore the history of Ecuador’s indigenous people and its past.
