Awesome day trip - This was such a fun day! Mauro was a great host and always had something to talk about. The bike I rode was nice and the ride at the equator had great scenery. The lunch was fantastic! I would definitely recommend this experience!

Way more than a bike tour--a great experience! - Mauro was referred to us by a friend who did this mountain bike tour and we could not have been happier. We got some great exercise while traversing the equator through beautiful farmland and a canyon with waterfalls, followed by the reward of a yummy local lunch. The market he took us to afterwards in Otavalo was a perfect place to buy really nice gifts. Mauro picked us up right in our hotel lobby and provided mountain bikes, helmets, gloves, water, and even a little handlebar bag for our phones and wallets. He knew exactly where to stop so you could see 0 degrees on your phone and took some great photos and videos of us along the way. The bike ride was fantastic, but what we didn't know going into the trip was how knowledgeable Mauro is about Ecuadorian history, folklore, politics, the economy--you name it! The conversations during the car ride to/from where we biked were fascinating. There wasn't a single question we asked that he didn't know the answer to. I highly recommend this trip and if we return to Ecuador we'll be looking Mauro up for another adventure!

100% recommend! Perfect day! - Definitely one of the best tours I’ve been too - Mauro is a very professional and experienced guide and I feel I’m in safe hands. The perfect day started when Mauro showed up with his modified red 1974 VW Beetle! It was my first mountain biking experience and Mauro is always very mindful of how I was doing. Loved all random facts about the mountains / volcanoes / vegetations he shared during the ride too. Lunch was very good and authentic. And we went to Otavalo post lunch and had 1h shopping time which was enough for me. Apart from all the factual stuff, I really appreciate Mauro as a guide - he has montons of knowledge - from Ecuadorean history to cuisine to plantation to mountain biking and even types of birds! He not only knows the past but also closely follows Ecuador and the world trend which makes the 4h out and back car ride much more enjoyable! I learned so much and appreciated Ecuador more now.

Great tour and nature - Mauro is a great guide who knows literally everything about Quito and its surrounding areas. The bikes he provides are top notch. The nature during the tour is extremely stunning and worth every cent. Recommending this tour to anyone that wants to break out of the city and see what Ecuador has to offer.
