Awesome tour with Diego! - We had the best time on our private tour to Ingapirca and the city of Cuenca with Polylepis Tours! Diego was amazing! So knowledgeable and friendly. His English was perfect and he is easy to understand. We only had one full day in Cuenca and he was the perfect guide to make us feel like we saw everything we HAD to see in one day but made us want to stay longer to see even more. If we could only spend one day again, we would spend it with Diego!

Interesting and Historical Experience - Diego was a great tour guide who was super knowledgeable about the history of Cuenca and Ingapirca! He also knew a lot about Ecuador in general, and was able to give insights on native plants, etc. Very fun and interesting!

Daniel made the difference on a tour that many others could have done - The tour allowed us to get a sense of old Cuenca and hit highlights
Diego personalized it for us with extra stops like going into an art studio and stopped so I could take photos of the soil. He was informative and generous of spirit. He recommended a specific shop that I wanted to visit and dropped us near it. I was a little disappointed we didn’t visit the hat factory, but the day was wonderful regardless He’s an outstanding and considerate driver as well and was excited to share his knowledge with us at all of the places we visited.

Best tour ever! - We toured Inga Pirca and the city of Cuenca with our tour guide Eddie. He was a treasure trove of information, he had dates and facts memorized perfectly. He was so knowledgeable on facts about the Incas and many other civilizations of the past. He spoke perfect English which was great because our Spanish isn't so good. You could tell Eddie was passionate about the history of Ecuador and beyond. He is the best tour guide we have ever had! If you want to see Inga Pirca and Cuenca book this tour, you will not regret it!

Special Tour by a terrific guide - Luis Ortega was our guide and he was great--very animated and passionate about his Canares heritage and totally knowledgeable about the historic details of the ruin. We especially appreciated his flexibility in turning the tour into and all-day Ingapirca tour, when I had mistakenly signed up for the combination city tour. He adjusted accordingly and took us to see the impressive Cathedral de la Virgen de las Rocias overlooking Biblian, a gastronomic stop and a lovely drive through the Ingapirca countryside on the way to the ruin itself. This tour remains one of my favorite memories of our trip to Ecuador. Four stars!

Wonderful day with Polylepis tour to Ingapirca and Cuenca city tour - We had a terrific day on this tour. Our guide, Flavio, was very friendly and informative regarding the ruins and also on our stops in the Cuenca part of the day. He spent extra time with us and was very flexible as to length of time spent at each stop. Loved hearing the stories behind the various structures at Ingapirca and the Panama hats in Cuenca, among others. Very entertaining and memorable.
