The ship is now call Horizon. Everyone from captain Xevier to hosted Gabriella were attentive, friendly and provided super service. The food, drink, facilities exceeded our expectations. Our naturalist Fernando was an absolute gem. His enthusiasm, sense of humour, knowledge of the area and interesting scientific facts about all kinds of subjects made this trip our most memorable vacation. It was hard to get up early in the morning have several snorkelling excursions plus hike per day. We would do it again!!!VerifiedThaynara M2023-04-07Ótimo passeio Ótimo passeio. Nosso guia Danny excelente pessoa, deixou o passeio muito mais agradável, muito conhecimento sobre a cidade de quito. Foi um grande dia na companhia dele.VerifiedAlex Frants2023-03-13Прекрасно! Незабываемые впечатления от тура по Эквадору, аутентичная страна сохранившая свою натуральность, с шикарными природными видами. Гид Антон открыл нам эту страну, решал все наши текущие вопросы и настраивал на получение эстетического удовольствия от погружения в культуру и быт Эквадора.VerifiedElvira2023-02-26Кито, окрестности и Галапагосы Хотим выразить огромную благодарность нашему гиду Давиду за прекрасно подобранный маршрут по Эквадору. Кито, его окрестности, подбор экскурсий на Галапагосах - все было интересно и на пять баллов. Давид - замечательный гид, эрудированный, грамотный, приветливый, пунктуальный, всегда слышащий пожелания клиентов. Сопровождал нас три дня и показал нам красоту Эквадора, и мы уже думаем, когда поедем туда в следующий раз) Будем рекомендовать его контакт всем друзьям и желающим поехать в эту прекрасную страну.VerifiedMaria S2023-02-12Идеальная частная экскурсия Экскурсия по Кито с Давидом нам очень понравилась: прекрасная архитектура старого города точно стоит потраченного дня. Наш гид был безупречен: тактичен, быстро подстраивался под наши запросы ( больше или меньше информации, темп исключительно наш), достаточные знания по истории, культуре и обычаям Эквадора, интересная подача - не занудно, прекрасный водитель. Очень рады, что нам так повезло с Давидом! Спасибо и рекомендация от чистого сердца для всех туристов.VerifiedTatiana2022-06-04Опасный Эквадор! Что ж... Я хотела открыть для себя Южную Америку и мой выбор пал на Эквадор. Но почитав инфу в интернете и поспрашивав соотечественников, живущих там долгие годы, мне говорили, что там очень опасно, очень криминально и лучше туда вообще не соваться! Да и делать особо нечего - ничего интересного там нет. Но мне уж очень хотелось поехать и я решила найти гида. Путем долгих поисков мне дали контакты Давида. Я сразу же написала ему. Он очень подробно отвечал на все мои многочисленные вопросы. Более того, предложил сразу несколько вариантов чем можно дополнить мою программу путешествия. За два дня он показал нам столько красивых и интересных мест - мы видели редких туканов, вокруг меня кружило сотни видов колибри, побывали на плантациях кофе и какао (где мы пробовали местный кофе и шоколад), гуляли по ночному Кито, забирались на вулканы, попробовали более 30 экзотических фруктов, купались в горячих природных вулканических источниках, изучили местную кухню, повстречали многих редких животных, были в центре мира, гладили ламу, получили сертификат за яйцо - да чего тока не было! Давид всегда приезжал вовремя, он не торопил нас при осмотре достопримечательностей (а то я знаю как бывает - 5 минут и побежали дальше), давал кучу интересной информации о каждом месте и о стране в целом, подробно отвечал на все вопросы (ну мне это важно, у меня всегда куча вопросов 😄), если по дороге я замечала что-то интересное - без проблем останавливались. Даже помогал при шоппинге (и в магазине (магазины он не навязывал, я сама выбирала магазины), и на рынках)! Если вы хотите увидеть настоящий Эквадор, узнать его получше и увидеть своими глазами, понять, что он не более опасен, чем те же города Америки или Европы, что он очень красивый и безумно интересный - я очень советую вам Давида. Единственное о чем я пожалела - мало дней мы взяли на Эквадор. Думаем, вернемся сюда ещё раз и обязательно снова обратимся к Давиду дальше изучать эту страну 😊 P.S.: Возможно, получилось как целая ода, но я очень придирчивый клиент и редко кто мне может угодить😄 P.S.S.: жалко тут ограничения по количеству фото 😄😄😄VerifiedMasha R2022-04-22Спасибо нашему гиду Давиду Петросян Спасибо огромное! Давиду Петросян, нашему гиду в Эквадоре! Мы группа из 15 туристов, очень благодарны Давиду, за прекрасный тур! Его профессионализм, доброту и конечно за наше хорошее настроение. Его готовность всегда помочь и ответить на все вопросы. Путешествия с Давидом, всегда удачны, приятны и познавательны !!!VerifiedNatasha2022-02-19Волшебный Эквадор Хочу выразить огромную благодарность Давиду и Антону за потрясающую атмосферу, которая была создана ими при организации программы по Эквадору. Все было великолепно! Прекрасное и внимательное отношение с учетом ваших собственных предпочтений, любые пожелания исполнялись очень быстро, что безусловно приятно и очень ценно. С такой организацией поездка прошла увлекательно и позитивно! Рекомендую!
