Based on the 5 star reviews, my boyfriend and I were so excited for this tour… Since the tour guide did not reach out the night before, I messaged sent a message just to confirm time (0900) and meet up location. They were prompt, clear in their responses, which was greatly appreciated. We got to the location at 0850, where we checked in and signed our waivers. 0900 there was still no driver, so we asked the gentleman if we had time to get breakfast. He said that the driver would be there in 5 minutes… add another 40 minutes to that and the driver EVENTUALLY shows up. I asked a reason for the delay and he said that he had to pick up other guests. There were no other guests on the bus when we got on. The sites we visited were super touristy locations, that were jam packed. Mainly places for photo opportunities with displays. The one thing I did truly enjoy was the hike to the waterfall. The waterfall itself was beautiful, but again it was packed and we were only allowed 25 minutes there. Our guide was inattentive and truly didn’t care about our experience. The only time he interacted with us and showed us a medicinal plant used for sinuses, etc.He was lost in his cellphone or chatting with his other tour friends the majority of the time. While walking to and from the water fall he straight up powered forward and left the group behind. What if someone got injured or sick? I took some pictures and videos of the group walking through the woods alone. I wish we would’ve chosen another tour or just made our own itinerary. Definitely the worst tour I’ve been apart of.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We sincerely appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving our tours. First of all, we offer our sincere apologies for the delay at the start of the tour. That morning our driver had to coordinate pickups before arriving at the meeting point, which unfortunately caused the delay, as this is a shared tour and not a private tour. In a private tour we would have departed only with you. We understand how frustrating it can be to wait, especially when you are excited to start the day, and we are reviewing this situation with our team to avoid similar delays in the future. Regarding the places visited during the tour, the Amazon one-day excursion includes some well-known sites that are popular among visitors. These places can sometimes be busy because they are public tourist locations open to everyone, not private sites. It is normal that popular attractions have more visitors, especially during peak hours, as many travelers want to experience them. We are sorry to hear that the guide did not seem attentive during the experience. This is not the level of service we aim to provide. Our guides are usually recognized in many reviews for their friendliness, knowledge, and attentiveness, so we will definitely share your comments with our team to reinforce the importance of staying close to the group and ensuring that every participant feels supported during the hike and throughout the tour. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the hike to the waterfalls and the natural beauty of the area, which is one of the highlights of this excursion. Your comments are very valuable to us, especially because providing memorable experiences for our participants is our top priority. We hope that despite this situation, you were still able to enjoy the incredible landscapes of Ecuador. Thank you again for your feedback and we wish you a pleasant journey.
This was a fabulous day, great guide, just the right amount of activities. The swing was spectacular. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 We’re very happy you enjoyed the day, the activities, and the swing experience. It was a pleasure having you with us. You’re always welcome back!
We had a wonderful action packed day with Pablo. His English was very good, and he was very knowledgeable about everything. Be prepared for what could be, some strenuous walking to the falls the treehouse
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. We are very happy to hear that you had such an action-packed and enjoyable day with Pablo. It’s great to know that you appreciated his English and his knowledge during the tour. We are proud to have guides like Pablo who are passionate about sharing the beauty, culture, and nature of the area with our guests. You are absolutely right that some parts of the tour include walking, especially to reach beautiful places like the waterfall and the Treehouse, but we are glad to hear that you were able to enjoy these experiences. Thank you again for choosing to travel with us. We hope to welcome you again on another adventure in Ecuador in the future.
I made several excursions with this agency and everything proved excellent. Michelle advised me and organized the tours to make the most of my time in Baños, was very attentive and answered my queries on WhatsApp. I highly recommend hiring your services.

Nos alegra saber que disfrutaste de las excursiones y que Mishell pudo ayudarte a organizar tus tours para aprovechar al máximo tu tiempo en Baños. Estaremos encantados de recibirte nuevamente para que sigas descubriendo más rincones mágicos.
Unbelievable value for money. It’s a whole day out packed with great activities and unique experiences. Pablo was a great guide (you could tell his knowledge extended beyond just being a tourist guide) and Jaime is an excellent driver around difficult roads. Lunch was included (+3 dollars for fresh fish which was delicious). Available in both English and Spanish. Zero complaints at all, a really wonderful experience.

Full day for a first discovery of this region. Several beautiful views and an end in apotheosis with the Indichuris viewpoint. Visit to a local indigenous community and a chocolate making demonstration. Whatever your time available or your budget, Mishell will advise you to discover its country
Hi Erick, it was a pleasure meeting you. Thank you for visiting us and trusting us, for having provided you with a wonderful experience in Baños de Agua Santa. I hope to see you again soon.
Long day but awesome. Very neat expierences at each stop. Just be sure to bring a swimsuit for the waterfall. I didn't see that listed anywhere on here but they do let you spend some time there and swim if you have a change of clothes. Hike can be a bit difficult for people that have mobility issues.
Thank you very much for your comment and your visit, it was a pleasure to receive you, a hug, have a good trip.
