Ecuador Customized Tours and Trips

I was born and raised in the beautiful and vibrant city of Buenos Aires. I have been working in the tourism industry since graduating from Tourism and Hotel Management in 2016. After I finished college, I decided to live abroad for a while to see new places, improve my English, and have life-changing experiences. I have enjoyed traveling ever since I can remember. I love seeing new places. To me, tourism allows us to create unique and unforgettable experiences, and connect with people all around the world. After returning to Argentina, I decided to work as a travel advisor and help people design the best trips possible, discovering breathtaking landscapes, vibrant cities, diversity, and rich culture of this beautiful part of the world I call home. I'm a proud "porteña"!

Hi! My name is Alvaro. I combine extensive South America knowledge with a personalized and practical approach to travel planning. Based in Ecuador, I work closely with experienced local teams across Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile and Colombia. This allows me to design both detailed single-country journeys and seamless multi-country adventures. I take the time to understand your interests, preferred travel style, expectations and budget before creating your itinerary. Rather than offering the same trip to every traveler, I focus on developing a journey that feels personal, realistic and well organized. My regional experience also allows me to recommend the right routes, accommodations and experiences while managing the important logistical details between destinations. Whether you want to explore the Galápagos Islands, Machu Picchu, the Uyuni Salt Flats, Patagonia or Colombia’s vibrant cities, I will help you create a memorable journey. You will also receive reliable local support before and throughout your trip.

I always loved traveling and discovering new cultures and landscapes, so it was a natural decision for me to make my passion my job. Although I am originally from France, near Paris, I have always been attracted to Latin America. After living in Mexico for an exchange during my studies and then in Colombia for an internship, I wanted to discover Ecuador next. I fell in love with this beautiful country, where visitors can see many different landscapes in a very short time. This is why we call it “the country of 4 worlds”. It surprises me that I keep discovering the diversity of Ecuador: there is the beautiful Galapagos, the mountains with the Andes, the Pacific coast and the Amazon forest. There is certainly something you will like here!

Six years ago, I planned to travel while on a break from my job in Salzburg, Austria. I had aimed to travel to several countries in South America and climb a peak that was over 6,000 meters. However, things did not go according to plan and within a week I was stuck in Ecuador with my then-mountain-guide, who is now my life and business partner. I grew up in the Tyrolian Alps where my passion for mountaineering started from a very early age. I discovered amazing peaks back home with my dad and the Alpine Club, to which I contributed to for about a decade, organizing mountain adventures. Apart from climbing, I am also into mountain biking, paragliding, running, and many other adventure sports. Discovering the world, meeting people, and experiencing other cultures are just some of the things that make traveling something very special to me. For me, being a traveler is as exciting as being a host — it's about sharing what you love and having a good time! I'm happy to help with your Ecuador travel plans and share my insights. I look forward to getting your holiday planning started!

I was born and raised in Quito, the capital of Ecuador. I studied at UDET (Universidad de Especialidades Turísticas) for 3 and a half years to obtain my degree in Tourism. Then, as a National Tour Guide, I worked for over 10 years with many travel companies leading groups all over South America. I always considered the possibility of having my own tour company. I wanted to make travelers fall in love with Ecuador by offering bespoke experiences that would remain forever in their souls. As a guide, I noticed that the conventional tours offered were not suitable for everyone and most people who booked these tours did so because there were no other choices to visit Ecuador. I felt that tour programs were missing many places, and even our visitors were noticing. So, in 2010, I took the challenge to fulfill my dream, creating my own company. Since then I have been committed to providing the best tour experiences in Ecuador and many other destinations in Latin America, showing my passion for what I do every day.
