Hi I’m Fernando! Your curious local who loves sharing Quito’s charm - from its colonial churches and Gothic cathedrals to the breathtaking views from El Panecillo or the Teleférico. I’m a foodie at heart, so whether you’re after street eats at hidden huecas or fine dining with a view, I’ll take you to the best spots in the city. I’ve biked through Parque Metropolitano at nearly 3,000m, explored colorful food markets, and even crafted my own ice creams and cheesecakes from local fruits. I’ll show you where to snap the best photos of Cotopaxi on a clear morning, feel the unique energy of Rumichu’s Inca ruins, or even discover quirky gems like Quito’s famous $10 dental deep clean. From the “Mitad del Mundo” where the hemispheres meet to the lively streets of the historic downtown at sunset, I know Quito’s stories, flavors, and secrets - and I can’t wait to share them with you.
