Description

Experience Quito beyond the postcard with this fully personalized private walking tour. After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire so we can match you with a knowledgeable host who reflects your interests, curiosity, and pace. This is your opportunity to explore the city not as a checklist, but as a living, breathing experience shaped around you. Your itinerary unfolds in real time—flowing with your energy and guided by the city’s rhythm. Begin at Plaza Grande, Quito’s ceremonial center, where national landmarks and leafy arcades offer stories from centuries past. Step into La Ronda, a colorful street of artisan workshops and flower-filled balconies, or pause in a peaceful courtyard tucked behind the ornate walls of El Sagrario Church. Follow your curiosity through plazas, markets, and hillside lookouts. You might browse handmade goods in San Francisco Plaza, admire colonial facades, or take a quiet detour to the Calle Morales viewpoint for sweeping views of the city. If the moment feels right, stop for a coffee at a neighborhood café or wander into a shaded rooftop terrace just out of sight. This isn’t a scripted sightseeing tour—it’s an intimate, real-time journey through Quito. Your host will shape the experience around what captures your attention, weaving together iconic landmarks with spontaneous, meaningful moments. From history to hidden corners, you’ll see the city through a truly local lens.
