TESTIMONIAL

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Julio is an amazing, competent birding guide. It’s almost as if the birds of Ecuador know him personally and come to his call. My niece and I spent 10 days birding and photographing butterflies with Julio, who found us many rarities in breathtaking landscapes. We left with a lifetime of memories. His planning was impeccable. He introduced us to several beautiful ecolodges, each serving delicious Ecuadorian cuisine, and we got a deep appreciation for the diversity of Ecuadorian ecosystems. When the official tour was over we convinced Julio to take us on another customized birding adventure, this time south of Quito to see the condors. Again, Julio seemed to know where to find every specialty bird and how to draw them out. Would go again with Julio in an instant, he’s a treasure.
