    1. Daniel Ladino

      Una experiencia única llena de aventura y grandes retos. Di con esta agencia de pura casualidad y resultó ser el lugar más honesto y profesional en lo que pude encontrar, los guías son certificados, te ayudan a conseguir el equipo que te falta, la transacción fue confiable y en definitiva volvería a tomar un tour con ellos.

      En cuanto a la experiencia es recomendable ir bien aclimatado y listo para sufrir porque es una de las montañas más duras y majestuosas de sur américa, no logramos la cumbre pero algún día volveremos para lograrla.

      Ich hatte eine sehr gute Erfahrung mit Ecuventure den Chimborazo zu besteigen. Ich wurde im Vorfeld gut zu Aklimatisierung und Ausrüstung beraten und ich hatte einen sehr erfahrenen Bergführer vor Ort.
