Hi I'm Fernando, a curious local who knows Quito from its colonial churches to its mountain peaks. I love biking through Parque Metropolitano at nearly 3,000m, hunting for the best street food (you have to try yapingachos!), and catching snowcapped views of Cotopaxi and Pichincha on clear mornings. From the colorful food markets to hidden gems like the Botanic Garden or a $10 dental deep clean (yes, really), I’m always exploring something new. I’ve lived in the north, know the buses by heart, and can guide you through the best of Quito - especially the historic downtown at sunset, when the city glows with charm and stories.
