Hear What Our Clients Say About Barefoot Expeditions!

So glad we found this company! They made our trip a blast! The guides are very knowledgeable and fun, and the price was very good for all we got to do! I don’t know if you can recommend your driver if you need one but get Edwin if you can. He was so sweet and helpful to all of us. Great company! Highly recommend!

Melissa C.

Great service. Ability to customize your tours and aggregate the best providers at the lowest cost through a local operation with local contacts. Fluent in English and Spanish. Some German. It’s like having a personal friend in a foreign country. Invaluable for the visitors to Ecuador and other Latin American and South American destinations.

Mark T.

We had a great tour with Diego, they had excellent recommendations for places to visit and eat and had a comfortable relaxing time. The visit to Mindo was especially fun, from ziplines to waterfall hikes to great pizza for lunch. Would highly recommend to anyone traveling in the area, especially families looking to experience the sights and experiences around Quito!
