Explora y enamorate de ecuador

  Magical Mindo - This was a magical day that started with the drive to the Mindo highlands. Even though it took some time to clear the city for me this was awesome... read more to see so much of what is culturally very different to Australia and have time to chat with my guide Luis and driver Jimmy about life in Ecuador. Our first stop was to visit hummingbirds which memory will stay with me - what magical creatures! I opted to take the walk around the trails with the owner and was treated to seeing so many other birds including toucans but also was delighted by the information given on the flora and being able to taste the fruits that the birds eat. More magic followed with butterflies, the cooling waters at the waterfall, the fun trip across with the tarabita, the wonderful traditional Ecuadorian lunch and finishing with the chocolate tour where from the first second you are hit in the face with the most incredible aromas. The day was truly made though by the company of Luis and Jimmy who were able to provide me not just with information but made the trip for a solo visitor comfortable and fun - the Queen karaoke on the drive back was awesome - thank you

  10/10. Highly recommend all Real Dreams Tours. - An excellent day trip! Highly recommend!!

On our holiday in Ecuador we decided to book a day trip to Mindo with Real Dreams which was amazing. We loved our... read more day so much that we decided to book a second day tour with this fantastic company to Otavalo.

We were picked up promptly from our hotel and driven safely to all stops. We tasted traditional biscuits, went to a view point, visited Otavalo market, had lunch, went to a waterfall, saw a stunning lake and finished in a small village with traditional leather goods before being dropped back to Quito.

We had such a great time and felt we got to see so much! We learnt a lot from our helpful guides and were able to ask many questions. We loved both our trips with real dreams and thanks to Carolina and Pedro for making it so memorable.

  Phenomenal tours for family - Travelled to Ecuador with my wife and two daughters - ages 8 and 10. Pedro and his team were absolutely phenomenal. It started out with him meeting us... read more at the hotel on time and with snacks and water for the trip. He was extremely informative and knowledgeable about the not only the sights, but the Ecuadorian people, history, etc - which was fascinating for my wife and I. He was great with our kids, keeping them entertained and interacting with them along the way as well. We travelled to Cotopaxi and Quilotoa with small smaller stops along the way. He guided us to a perfect lunch spot with warm Ecuadorian potato soup on a slightly chilly day, and took us to all the perfect spots for photographs, etc.

In addition, we had a half-day layover in Quito on the return from the Galapagos Islands, and he accommodated us on a quick tour of the city and the equatorial line. Can't say enough about the tour. Couldn't have asked for anything else (except some warmer weather!).

  Best experience thanks to Pedro! - This was by far the best experience I have ever had. Thank you Pedro for being so informative. We learned so much going on this experience with him. 5 stars... read more go to him.

Cotopaxi National Park offers spectacular views of the volcano and opportunity to hike up to the base camp (very demanding but rewarding for those not acclimated to high elevation hikes). Overall a tremendous tour with a great guide (Pedro). Pedro was knowledgeable and a welcoming ambassador. He shared his beautiful country and his attitude added to the experience.

  Rewarding - $$ well spent as this was my first private tour. Pedro is a terrific tour guide and he even included a sunny day for exceptional views of both sites. ... read more Pedro is well informed and fluent in English and was easily capable of answering my numerous questions. Great lunch in Quilotoa as well.

My guide Carlos and driver Mairon were right... read more on time with the pick up. Carlos spoke English fluently and clearly, very easy to communicate with. He is very knowledgeable with Ecuador culture and history and I learned a lot during my tour. Carlos made sure we saw some local life along the way and had multiple stops for photos. Mairon the driver did a great job navigating the roads and I felt very safe. The weather was great and we got to see unobstructed Cotopaxi in its full glory and maybe even some steaming from the summit. Lunch stop was good as well, tasty meal and Llama photo opportunities 🙂 overall , I highly recommend Real Dreams tours and will definitely use them again if I'm back to Ecuador

  Amazing one day trip from Quito to Cotopaxi National Park & up to Cotopaxi Glacier with guide, Pedro. Highly recommend. - Amazing day trip to the Cotopaxi Glacier with our tour guide Pedro.

The hike from the car park to the glacier is challenging but rewarding although the weather wasn’t great. Also Pedro told us lots of interesting details about Cotopaxi and Ecuador. I highly can recommend this one day trip.

  An unforgettable trip! - I booked this break as part of a longer set of Ecuadorian adventures, and would thoroughly recommend it! It was a wonderful experience, starting from Quito and taking in a... read more whole range of memorable sights and experiences. I was lucky enough to travel solo and be accompanied by a single kind and hugely knowledgable guide, Pedro. We visited sites such as as the famous Swing at the Edge of the World, the shops and spas of Banos, the stunning Quilotoa Lagoon, and a succession of beautiful waterfalls culminating in the famous Pailon Del Diablo as well as Cotopaxi.

Pedro was a superb guide, thoughtful and generous: it was soon apparent that he loved the work of showing off his country's great sights, and there was precious little about either its natural or its human history on which he was not an eloquent and kindly authority. As a result, I came away not merely with a bundle of tourist experiences, but also with some sense of how the various aspects of Ecuador's natural history and culture came together to form a whole, and felt enriched all the more for that. This is an excellent tour presented by a truly dedicated and caring guide, and is a wonderful introduction to this spectacular, complex and fascinating country, as well as to the lovely people who populate it.
