There were so many highlights! Climbing Pasachoa was certainly one. Seeing the wild horses on a hike from Tambopaxi was another. Descending on the bikes from above Quito to the cloud forest and seeing the change along the way was another. There were no real low points to the trip. The only challenge we faced was finding restaurants in Quito over Christmas and New Year. We ended up at a wings and beer place for Christmas Day dinner. Accommodation was really good. The views from the first lodge were great and the rooms excellent. The rooms at the second hacienda were really nice and the food excellent. The cabins in our Mindo hotel, as well as the common area with fire pit and restaurant, were really wonderful. The guides were all good. Andres, our guide in the highlands, was particularly great. Overall organization was excellent. Everything worked well, and the places we visited were excellent. Overall the food was excellent. Kathy was able to find vegetarian options and the lodges tried to accommodate our non-dairy request. We have recommended the trip to others, and would look at returning to Ecuador in the future.
