Highlights
I am an expert agriculturist, working for more than 10 years in local food systems and sustainable travel. I have guided in South America (Ecuator, Peru, Bolivia), visiting traditional attractions, off-the-beaten-track charms, and most importantly local communities. It will be pure excitement exploring the city, in the most tasteful and informative way! This unforgettable experience includes sampling local Ecuadorian food while uncovering the rich, vibrant stories attached to the historical sites of Quito.
We will get a taste of local life, during our journey, we will go to:
Four food stops (sample tasting is included on the tour price): dark chocolate, tons of native Ecuadorian fruits (you will be surprised), "Envueltos" (tamales, humitas), Colonial candies, "mistelas", local drinks, and more Andean cuisine. Enjoy the tour while talking about Ecuatorian culture and geography from a food perspective.
