Cuenca Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Eddy is amazing! His English is flawless, his knowledge of Cuenca’s/Ecuador’s history and culture is bottomless, and his care of and attention to us tourists is exemplary. I saw and learned so much in just a few hours. Highly recommend this tour with Eddy!

Nice day in Cajas. Alejandro was a very good guide and made the day more enjoyable.

We had a half-day trip to the National Park near Cuenta. The weather was very cold and rainy, so we had to modify the trip, but Adrian, our guide, was very informative and gave us a good tour. Greatly recommended!

My friends and I had an amazing tour! Our guide was Sebastian - he was kind, patient, and knowledgeable. He made us feel safe and we would absolutely recommend him as a tour guide. The hike was challenging in the best way and we felt very accomplished afterwards!

Sebastian was great! Very knowledgeable and patient with our multiple breaks! Definitely recommend - 10/10

A nice way to get to know Cuenca Ecuador.

Cajas is an incredible place and absolutely worth going. I think it's easy enough to go yourself but I enjoyed learning about the ecosystem and history throughout the hike and while visiting the other viewpoints. Eddie was a great guide - punctual, informative, and patient.
