Loja, Ecuador’s Longest Running City Walking Tour
Nothing beats walking through the heart of a city to see its most unique features. Life in Loja has been guiding visitors on the city’s most highly reviewed walking tour for over five years. Guided by a life-long resident, hundreds of tourists have experienced our highly detailed private bilingual walk through the culture and history of Loja, one of the country’s oldest Spanish Colonial cities and the arts capital of Ecuador. Nestled in the Andes Mountain range between two world renowned national parks, Podocarpus and Yacuri, Loja is a hidden gem as the last urban stop before Ecuador’s border with Peru. The tour takes you to colonial squares surrounded by balconied tile roof stucco town houses of the old Spanish hacienda owners, along with art-packed churches, convents, and monasteries dating back to the South American Renaissance. Not standing still in time, Loja is also a city moving into the modern era with ecologically-minded infrastructure, examples of all the significant architectural styles of the 20th Century, exuberant mural art, and a burgeoning reputation for growing the finest coffee in Ecuador. Loja is also the destination of one of the largest religious pilgrimages in south America dedicated to the Virgin Mary of El Cisne and the home of Ecuador’s international performing arts festival.

This is an excellent stop for visitors headed to Peru and those coming to see the National parks. It is a treat to visit a place that is not over-touristed.
In order to see all Loja has to offer you need at least 7 days. This walking tour is just an introduction for those visiting Loja. Loja has a lot to offer. We are here to show you our area with local guidance
Thank you so much for sharing from I who by now, almost count days till I'm there - can't wait but, am a 'good girl' waiting until I can come down the right way......zzz 🤗 Why is it so that, when we really, really want something, time feels as if it's slowing down 💤💤 Take care and, have a good weekend in Loja 🌹🌹🌹
It will take a while but once you are here you’ll love it. Loja is a special place. Once you are here let us know. We will be glad to show you around. Have a great day
Genial ! En muchos de esos lugares se filmo el videoclip de mi sencillo "No Hay Más"
Gracias por el apoyo y compartiremos el clip en algún momento
So amazing city 😍
Thanks! Loja is indeed one of the best cities in the country of Ecuador
Thank you for sharing, we visit Loja on our next trip. Your city looks beautiful and charming. 👍
Thanks for your comment. If you need someone to show you our city we'd be gald to assist you.
You've sold the city to me, and have gained a new subscriber. Looking forward to watching more videos
Thanks for your support! More videos coming soon
It's nice, but it's not "luxury."
A place with all those finishings and features plus location is considered luxury in our country. Also, this place was recently sold.
Hi, the link to your tours on your website is not available.
Thanks for letting us know. Please contact us at lifeinloja@gmail.com and we will send information about our tours and services
How much?
We already rented it
I really appreciate your videos on Loja. I have spent time in Cuenca, thinking I would settle there, but I like the smaller feel of Loja. I'm hoping to get there in January. I will be watching this space.
Hello Mary! Thanks for your comment. We have been busy lately but working on our next video of Loja. If you have questions or need assistance don’t hesitate to contact us at lifeinloja@gmail.com
How much for this one?
$125.000
Is there cheap land for sale near Vilcabamba or further away, under 30K?
How many square feet or acres do you need ?
@@lifeinlojaecuador Let´s say around 10.000-20.000 square feet. I would need land with a permit to build a cheap house.
Yes it’s possible to find land for that cost in the Loja province
Beautiful video
Thanks Prince
Amazing !
Thanks 😊
Oh what a cozy place 🤗🌹🌹🌹
It’s quiet there. Hopefully you will find a place like this once you come visit

What are the cost of rentals in the countryside for a two to three bedroom with a large yard?
Hello! Costs vary depending on several factors like location, size of property, utilities and more. You can always contact us at lifeinloja@gmail.com for assistance
@@lifeinlojaecuador but I did just contact you and I asked for rentals in the countryside for a two or three bedroom with a large yard as far as specifics in regards to places can you not give me a variety of prices for areas?
@@user-df5xo4zx3v lol. Don't come to Loja. Do us all a favor and just stay where you are.
Can you give me an specific county or village you are interested in?
This was a great tour. I can recommend it to anyone who wants to get the lay of the land quickly. Our tour was customized by Jonathan so we could see what was of interest to us. We gained an understanding of the city and surroundings that would have taken us months otherwise. Thanks for being our guide, Jonathan!
Hello! Precisely, that's one of the objectives of our tour. We summarize months of research in a couple hours for visitors. Thanks for taking our tours. We appreciate it.
A very interesting tour !
Thanks Aurelie. Looking forward to seeing you again
This is a wonderful tour. Jona's knowledge of Loja and its neighborhoods is unmatched.
Thanks dear Steve and Happy Anniversary. You and Angie are the best!

You really did an outstanding video thank you
Glad you liked it
I am really impressed by all the beautiful details in this house! I love that coffee bar! I could live on that back porch. I really have not seen many places so close to the city with such a fantastic view. I can totally see why the owners built their home there. How do we schedule a visit to the place? is it still available for sale?
It's a great house indeed. In order to schedule a visit just send an email to lifeinloja@gmail.com This house is still available and we are ready to show it to visitors
Question, please. Does this property actually border on Podocarpus Park or only have a view of the park?
It has a view of the park
Is that an electric fence?
Yes it has an electric fence
Great House 2,012 sq feet; so, what year constructed & how much LAND?
The place was built on 2018. The lot size is 0.11 acres
Beautiful!
One of the most beautiful houses we have visited in Loja
This is one of our favorite tours. Amazing!

Great video, Jona!! You have a true affection for Loja that comes through your videos and captures the love that draws a person to your bella ciudad!! I look forward to spending time with you and touring Loja when it's time for that exploratory visit. Loja, todavía captura mi corazón!! -Ron
Thanks for such kind words Ron! I’m working on more videos. If you visit Loja don’t hesitate to contact me. I’d be glad to assist you. Until then Ron
If its so great why are so many people fleeing and coming to the United States?
Ecuador and many other countries in the world are facing a crisis. The job opportunities are low and many people left Ecuador to find a good paying job. However, Ecuador is diverse and the highlands are becoming a good place to retire. Retiring in Ecuador is a good option because of the climate, cost of living and food among the most important reasons. Not all the cities are similar. Loja, is one of the safest cities in this country and it’s also one of the most beautiful.
Is that price per month?
Yes, per month. Utilities are included
@@lifeinlojaecuador goodness, that makes a person think.
Great video Jonah, I love the fruit and veggies here. I eat avocado's almost everyday, they are so fresh and tasty. Looking forward to trying the different varieties.
Thanks Connie! We also love our fruits and veggies. There’s so much to learn and try. In future videos we want to expand more on the types of food available in Loja. Thanks again for your support
I like you videos. Beautiful City, beautiful people. We would love to visit one day soon.
Hello! Thanks for your reply. If you come visit Loja contact us. We can show you everything you need to know about this wonderful place.
