- This was my first day in Quito Ecuador, and I was completely blown away by the sheer beauty of the city! From the moment I arrived at the airport, I knew I would be in for a great journey. Hope you guys enjoy this travel vlog!
Welcome to Ecuador!
men dont believe all those bad comments about safety, people more of the times are friendly and also very helpful, we ecuadorians used to stigmatize the places according the peoples income or how that place looks. anymore to say ..Regards from Quito
Brother come to mancora.. you very close .. we miss you in Peru.
Was that dish Encebollado? Signature Ecuadorian dish
Take care brother we are having a political and económicas crisis. Thank you for promoting our beautiful city. Avoid empty streets and stay away from bars unless you see look safe
Definitely a beautiful and scenic country! Thank you for watching Antonio! Saludos! 🍻
I'm looking at a 10ish day trip in January. What would you say the number 1 thing to watch out for is? Is it really as "dangerous" now as people are saying? Or is it more so "possible" for crime, not "probable?"
@@lukeswain1752 Watch out for people on motorcycles, they ride and snatch your phone/rob you. Just a lot of robbing going on, especially the coast. A lot of murders are occurring but that's between the drug gangs and cartels.
If you are carful and do not go on empty streets it is safe@@lukeswain1752 we dnnot have shootings, only on neighbours very far away from centric areas and in province. Just be safe and don't go around qith your ohone kn your hand. You can have a walk and nothing will happen
😮 you not supposed wear jewelry in these places. Thank GOD nothing happened to you. 😊
That dish is a locro (the soup) with seafood on top, it's not quite a national dish but an invention from that restaurant. Looks delicious though, i will give it a try soon.
Hope you enjoyed Quito!
Thank you for the info! I definitely enjoyed my time, was pleasantly surprised by the natural beauty of the city! 🍻
Preciate you showing love to the motherland, hope you enjoyed Ecuador bro. I only just went for the first time as a grown up three years ago at 18 but fell in love with it and miss my extended fam, ima try and go back this summer. Safe travels g🙏
Should go visit Manta Ecuador beautiful beach or Cuenca Amigo!
Absolutely agree with Manta!
Becareful with locals tellin u where to go, sometimes can be a trap...also 5 is early for clubs bars and all that. How did u like the club beer? Pilsener? Which one did u like the most ? Why didnt u like the aqua something shot ? And man ur brave but watch out in alleys and places that empty i would say avoid them also watch out with ur chain i would say put it on when ur at the spot or club but also becareful...safe travels and awesome video bro, subscribed
1000% agree, which is why I was becoming very skeptical as I seen the streets were empty 😅 I would rate the club beer a 7/10, very good! The agua shot tasted like rubbing alcohol 😅, was not very good at all. Thank you for the kind words and for watching! Saludos! 🍻
FRIEND
INVITE YOUR FRIENDS TO COME VISIT US
@@ximenajativa2588 Definitely will! I hope this vlog inspires more people to visit this my beautiful city!! Thanks for watching! Saludos! 🍻
How much is a good tip?
@@marykk6246 honestly, 5% is seen as awesome, but when I tipped 10% or more they seemed extremely happy and grateful about it, so between 5%-10%. I definitely will always tip high if the service was great. Thanks for watching! Saludos! 🍻
Got that fade in there bro🔥
Im not gonna lie bro, I was a lil nervous he was going to push my edge up back or leave me with a chilli bowl 🤣🤣🤣🤣 But he got me right!! 💪💪 Thank you for watching! Saludos!! 🍻
you needed to try aguardiente mixed with different juices, as an example the canelazo
It's hard calling it a night after a fresh fade
Maaaaaannnnnnnn!!!!! They don't understand the feeling!!!!! I did everything I could to save the night! 😅😅😅 Thank you for watching! Cheers 🍻
te tomaste de una sola la copa de aguardiente 😂
It was good!! Thank you for watching Oscar!! Saludos! 🍻
Bro, there are two good pubs, one in Plaza San Francisco, called Sinners, and another one in Plaza del Teatro. For good bars and good food go to north of Quito.
I didn't figure this out until right before I left! I was so disappointed that I didn't get to experience a true Ecuadorian night on the town. I plan to come back in 2025 and will definitely have your recommendations saved!
Thanks for watching!
Saludos! 🍻
Dude, from 8:20 to 10:11 you were walking through San Roque, which is basically the mother of the most dangerous neighbourhoods in Quito. From San Roque to the west, passing through El Panecillo, boulevard 24 de Mayo and El Trébol, we have the border between the centre and the south of Quito. This border has always been dangerous and place where local mafias operate, also lots of petty crime. Blvd. 24 de Mayo is touristy, but I wouldn't walk alone through San Roque. I always go to their market, because it's cheap. But we use a car to get into their garage, and that's safe.
Thank for this video my friend. How was/is the rest of your time down there? Any issues with safety or crime? I'm thinking about going down for around 10 days in Januaryish. Good video!
Thank you so much for watching and the kind words my friend! Overall, Ecuador really surprised me! Beautiful scenery, great food, and I felt very safe in most places, even while walking in the middle of the night. I will say the people were nice, however it's not as laid back as some other South American countries. I did not get to explore as much as I would have liked due to me having to cut the trip short, but it was definitely a gem. You should definitely give it a visit. Please note, Quito can be quite chilly so bring some warm clothing! Saludos 🍻
@CultureShockAddict It looks like the perfect country. Small enough to travel, has all the geographical features of South America, great people, food, everything! I will make sure to bring a coat! Thanks for taking the time to show all of us part of your journey. Did you get a chance to see the amazon?
I've been all over South America. I think Ecuador was my favourite and definitely the cheapest (i was there 20 years ago). The highlights were climbing a volcano and spent a dew days living with a family in the jungle Definitely go visit!
A Kenny have you ever had Wray & Nephew Rum? Because that is what that Aqua shot seemed liked.
Hoping u had Morocho, hot can be sweet oatmeal drink, also the Native beer Chi Cha ;)
How much was that meal? Where would you rank Ecuador in your travels.
amazing
Thank you for the kind words! Thank you for watching! Saludos 🍻
Will Smith was en ecuador he love it is a friendly contry god bless
Amazing people and country!!! So underrated, I really hope people are drawn to this beautiful gem! Thank you for watching! Saludos! 🍻
Hey man, You were visiting some creepy neighborhoods . Being a local, don't dare to go out there...
The lady at the Terraza Quitena, better would offer You a Canelazo instead of the plain shot of aguardiente.
