I did the one day biking trip off the Cotopaxi. We started at 4,5 km on the vulcano and cycled almost the entire trip downhill. So that was nice. It's hard enough to cycle at that altitude. We had a very good instructor, material was good, lunch was good and you could cycle at your own pace. So no complaints.... More

If you're looking to bicycle in Ecuador, go no further than the folks at Biking Dutchman. My husband and I used them for an 8 day tour in December, 2011. The guide was great, the biking good and the variety wonderful. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. More

I chose the two day Cotopaxi and Quilotoa ride, and wasn't disappointed. Having checked in advance, I knew we weren't getting downhill full suspension bikes, so some of the terrain was harder to ride, but still enjoyable, and the hard tail Trek bikes were still a good standard. Alberto, our guide, was a delight, really knowledgable, relaxed, helpful, and with... More

I cycled Cotopaxi with the Biking Dutchman company in March, 2012 and it was a great experience! The trip was amazing and the scenery was beautiful. Our guide (Fernando, I believe) was extremely knowledgable and incredibly friendly. If you have a trip the includes lunch, call ahead if you have dietary concerns such as lactose, gluten on vegan/vegetarian. The office... More

Best fun you can have from Quito. Well organised, great guide, good lunch. Sound advice from Biking Duchman as to the need for with warm clothing meant we were well prepared (it was hailing at the top). Great scenery. I'm an incompetent bike rider so ended up chickening out of the ride but still had a great day travelling down... More

We met at a cafe just up the road from the biking Dutchman's office. All was well. Our driver was there, we were just waiting on our guide. He never showed. At first we were a tad worried, but the driver got hold of the owner. Without any hesitation he offered to do the tour with us instead! We were... More

The four of us had a great time with our guide Fernando from Biking Dutchman in Cotopaxi National Parc in Ecuador. They picked us up in a Toyota 4x4 in time. Safe driving. They had extra jackets with them for the hike up the volcano and were very helpful when one of us was struggling with the thin air. The... More
