Dear Gary,

I want to express you my complete satisfaction for the hiking and climbing I had with Patricio. These two weeks in Ecuador are the highlights of my last five years.

Patricio has been a wanderful guide, driver and companion. He guided me at the right pace and I was able to reach in good shape all the summits we had in the program.

I would like to come back to Ecuador perhaps with a more challenging itinerary including Cotopaxi and other summits. Maybe you could discuss with Patricio and suggest a new program for two other weeks in Ecuador.

Please thank on my behalf Patricio for the very good time I had with him and I hope to come back soon to Ecuador.

Best wishes,
Vincent Torre

Dear Juliane and Ramiro,

Many thanks for coordinating the trip for us, it was an excellent and wonderful experience and quite a number of us fell in love with Ecuador and South America!

In particular, thank you for providing us with such wonderful guides as Jacobo and Hugo. Jacobo, ever helpful and fun, made the experience in the mountains a fun one for all of us; while Hugo, ever solid and dependable, was a reassuring presence.

Thanks also to Ramiro for joining us on the Galapagos trip. It was a very sweet and kind gesture on his part to take up the last place on the boat with us, and although he was not able to guide us in the mountains, I do hope his ankle recover soon and he can be up and guiding clients in the mountains again.

Lastly, thank you Juliane for planning and coordinating everything, it has not been easy since our group size kept changing, and we had problems with equipment. As you said, we were writing many emails to and fro. Thanks for doing such a great job!

We have such a wonderful time in Ecuador, and our friends have been asking about the trip as well, and I will definitely recommend EAI to them if they go over to Ecuador. I will be sending some photos and film footages of our trip over to you and the guides, perhaps they will be useful for advertising your company.

Once again, thank you very much for everything, and all the best to you two, your son, and your company.

Kind regards,
YY Teo

Dear Juliane,

I would thank you, Ramiro and especially Wilson for a great trip. Booking an adventure in Ecuador (8 days acclimatisation) on the internet half way round the world on your own is a daunting prospect, but the organisation and friendly and caring response from your company was a delight.

It was a wonderful trip, the mountains, the scenery, the Ecuadorian people and the challenging nature of the trip made it a truly memorable holiday.

Wilson, the guide, was professional, organised and a good friend and companion throughout the trip. Also an excellent cook.

I was very impressed with your company and would definitely use you again. It was a really great trip. Ecuador is such a stunningly beautiful country with such warm and friendly people.

There is so much more of Ecuador to explore including the Amazon.
Thanks again for a truly memorable trip.

Best wishes,
Bruce
