Diego was an amazingly informative guide. Couldn't be happier with the trip. The altitude Hit me hard but Diego was super patient.

Highly recommend Eddy for birdwatching as he is exceptionally knowledgeable; recognizing bird calls, naming each species and able to lure many out for viewing. He’s also punctual, a safe driver and an all around great person. We will use his services again.

Excellent excursion with excellent, professional guide, Flavio, extremely knowledgeable on the flora and fauna and climate of the Cajas. Very patient, with me taking photos on the beauty of Cajas. Carlos, our driver was very professional and safe driver. Five stars for Flavio Carlos, and Polylepis

End of September 2018, my wife and me enjoyed the private day tour to Cajas NP by Polylepis tours. The website information is correct and precise, booking at the tour office in Cuenca was easy and straightforward. Edy (Edison Juca) was our guide. Organisation of the tour and the tour program was flawless (actually, we admittedly profited of a nice day, too), and Edy turned out to be a guide with absolutely impressive capabilities. He adapted the choosen hiking trail perfectly to our physical conditions, he was able to name and explicitly describe all plants and birds which we recognized on our tour, and he virtually named every single species with its English, Latin and Spanish name (which was rather helpful in view of our German origin). He provided sound information on the geologic, historic, and cultural background of the area, and - on our way back - we enjoyed a comprehensive, detailed and very informative discussion with him on the actual political and social situation in Ecuador. Taken together, this was an outstanding highlight during our three-months tour through Ecuador. Thank you, Edy!

The hotel Victoria organized this trip for us. Our guide and driver fetched us at the hotel and was really friendly and helpful. After 45 minutes we climbed up the highest peak of Cajas and had wonderful view. Afterwards we walked some kilometres through Cajas and the Quinoa wood which was amazing. Our guide did know many things about the nature and explained it in English and Spanish. In the end we had a good lunch with a soup and trout in a restaurant nearby. Thank you.

Our guide Edison Juca really knew about the animal and plant life, plus the geology, climate, and history of the park. The scenery was breathtaking. Also we learned how the alpine tundra stores and filters the water so that Cuenca has good drinking water.

In gut 2 Stunden hat uns Flavio die Natur mit Flora und Fauna des Cajas Nationalparks näher gebracht. Alle unsere (vielen!) Fragen wurden beantwortet. Wir waren beeindruckt von Flavios grossem Wissen. Er hat uns die kleinsten Blümchen gezeigt, die wir ohne ihn gar nicht gesehen hätten. Natürlich immer auch mit der lateinischen Bezeichnung! Sein hervorragendes Englisch hat uns beeindruckt. Dass uns noch eine Lamafamilie mit Jungtier begegnet ist (beiliegende Foto) war das Tüpfchen aufs I.

De tocht geboekt met Polylepis is zeer goed georganiseerd. Ik had een kleine vraag en kon zo binnen vallen in het kantoor in cuenca (wel zo fijn om fysiek ook mensen te ontmoeten) Het park zelf is prachtig en mijn gids Eddy heeft een bijzonder brede kennis van vogels, planten en bloemen! Ook de geschiedenis en ontstaan van Cajas national park, de omgeving en locale cultuur weet hij tot in de puntjes te vertellen! Zeer informatief en zeer mooie tocht! Dank Eddy en de rest van de organisatie!
