Are you open to trying new and completely bizarre foods when you travel?
Would definitely like to try Latin America food. A friend from Columbia recommends several dishes.
Some things…but not the super for-the-sake-of-tourists inhumane food. Like, I gave a hard pass to the fresh cobra blood shot in Vietnam.
8:40 FYI Ecuador is geographically located in the American Continent. And yes, I know how you guys were taught differently, but is wrong.
@@Estuardino71 Its in the South American continent. Its the same on every global map. I'm confused as to what this is in reference to.
@@AliceFordAdventures I put the timing on your video, the rings on the Olympic flag tell it my way.
I absolutely love Quito, the last time I was there was in 1998. I loved it so much that I came very close to moving there, if it weren't for some family complications my wife and I would have moved there 20 years ago.
Really love your tour in the city of Quito and introducing the Latin style of cuisine. Ofcourse Quito looks beautiful !! We Indians have very little knowledge about Ecuador and we know this country through Football.
Thanks a lot and you are so lovely and pleasant.
Love From India 🇮🇳
Siendo la capital Ecuador es una de la cuidad más hermosa y colonial. Mucho por conocer, el centro histórico, gastronomía y lugar de diversión.
Welcome to Ecuador 🇪🇨 ❤❤
Thank you for sharing your wonderful travel experience in Ecuador. I feel very lucky to find this video before going to Ecuador for one week in a few days ✈️ I will definitely try some of your recommendations through my first time visiting there 😊 Ciao 🙏🏻
Have a wonderful time, it is a fabulous place and I'm sure you will enjoy it.
This is one of the best videos I've seen of Quito. Keep up with the great work. I am originally from Quito, but I have been living in the US for almost 14 yrs now. Watching videos like this makes me happy.
Thank you so much, I certainly put some time in to trying to find some of the best places to showcase.
Definitely Quito has the best preserved historical center in Southamerica, also was the first city to be considered World Site Unesco in 1979, and the Highest Capital in the world with 2,800 metres altitude, like Peruvian borned in another Andean country, Quito is the pride of our whole continent, I will stayed at in two weeks and I have the best expectations
Don’t underestimate the historic center of Cartagena de Indias. Even its walls are still largely intact.
Magnificent Ecuador.
Someday I will be back
Sin duda alguna un buen video,, extraño Quito me hiciste recordar lo bella que es esa Ciudad ❤😿
Que increíble quisiera poder conocer todo esa belleza y disfrutar sus comida y tradiciones
Quito is gorgeous😍✨❤

great video! spent some time in Ecuador back in the 80s, my first trip outside the US and Canada. It was very eye-opening and a great education. The people are wonderful and it was great to learn about their traditions and culture. I lived in Quito, Esmeraldas, Ambato, Tulcan, and Latacunga. I enjoyed the differences of each. The visit to Cotopaxi was more than memorable. It is amazing to see how much has changed. I hope you are able to visit all of the places you have planned, and can't wait for your videos.
Amazing. That must have been an adventure. I’m sure it’s changed quite a bit. I went to Cotapaxi too one of the best parts of the trip
Hola Alice, looks awesome! 👍…
The central market and local chocolate is my favorite moment! 👍…
Looks amazing, can't wait to see more of that adventure 💚🌎🌄
Amazon is out next! Excited for that one
Logro de papas es riquisimo, !!! Y Quito es beautiful 😍 🤩 👌 ❤️ ♥️ 💖
Locro de papas.
Hermoso mi país 💪 la próxima semana pa Quito
I like that you did not 'selfie record' the whole thing with a shaky camera like most bloggers do. Watching this video did not make me dizzy. I really appreciate that :-D
Thank you for posting this video, i can't wait to travel to Quito!
I loved it
Beautiful City.
Loved this video, I can’t wait to go back some day.
Thank you!
Hermoso quito
Thanks for this, am visiting Quito in October and this has been invaluable
Glad to hear that!
Pacari is the best chocolate in the world! Might be the main reason why I want to visit Ecuador...
I still have a few bars in my fridge :)
Yes. It's not an idle claim. Pacari has won many international chocolate competitions around the world.
I really enjoy your video and that yo actually tasted the food on camera was great
Thanks Rich the food and fresh everything in Ecuador was so good
Lugares extremadamente diferentes como en todos lados , para entretener la mente y compartir en familia y amistades exlente video me gusto súper 📨👍
Muchos gracias amigo
Your travel vlogs are always so inspiring and informative! Great to discover new destinations with you!
Thank you Philipp
K hermoso está aya
Needed this video today! it came up while i am sitting here planning my next trip to Newfoundland. Hopefully it will become a reality this year. Great video as always. So grateful for your inspiration.
Thanks Thank. I was just talking to my sister about the Long Trail in Newfoundland it is a beautiful place
@@AliceFordAdventures that’s exactly the trail i was looking at. but its a p2p. how do you get back to the start? Have you done it??
Hermosa ciudad, muy segura
Que hermosa y colonial ciudad ❤
Excelente es una belleza quito
My favorite part was when you demonstrated regular praying and Madonna vogueing!! You are super hilarious!!
Haha thank you I almost took that part out
Very accurate video! Great!
Thank you so much
Awesome. Thank you
Hi Alice, wonderful beautiful video about Ecuador and my city Quito, I was born inQuito and I m living in Florida many yrs ago. Thanks for your video, travel and experiences. is amaizing the country and cities; and Yes Alice you are right.!! Ecuador is South America country, as US is North America. I say this because, that guy Estuardino is WRONG and confused; I mean he must to study world History and Geography. Thanks Alice you are beautiful amaizing.!!!
Another fantastic video. Thank you
Thanks for watching Dave
Thanks I want to go there now
Excellent video. Never stop exploring
I love Quito, and you presented it very well. Interesting video!
Thank you so much for the information.
Nice video! I'm Quito right now, trying to figure out what to do for the rest of the month.
There are so many options. Have a great visit there.
Very professional as usual!
Good morning Alice finally back to where can watch videos. By way the Sequoia one was really great.
Thanks so much
So happy to see Quito again! Thank you! While backpacking, I just chilled there for 3 months. I loved the little cafe in one of the towers of the cathedral. Perfect place to do some work online, and read a book. And going into the roof was cool too.
At 10:00 did you get sick when you ate meat for the first time in years? After none for a while, I had beef, and was doubled over in pain for days.
So cool Chuck I’d love to go back I had a great time. I felt fine after the Coy but I think Red neat would affect me differently
@@AliceFordAdventures Hi Alice, it is actually cUy.
That was one of my dads favorite dishes and mine too in my childhood but after 25 years I don’t know if I could it again. Lol.
This was such a great video, I really want to go back and visit my beloved Quito.
Thanks and keep up the great work!
Awesome! I wanna go!
Awesome video ❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey Alice great vid! Informative and funny … like the meditation in the brewery. Made me laugh bc something I’d do. 😝 Will be solo in Quito (and Cuenca) this Oct-Dec, so helpful. Trying to find TH-cam content pointing me to places I could go to connect with the Xpat community is hard to find. Would be super helpful! 💡 Might be a good idea for an upcoming segment! 🙏
Quito carita de dios ❤
Me gusta mucho
You're travelling in a lot Place....why this Is so Amazing for your Spirit?
Eat food high in calories so you have to hike the following day to work it off. Hike so you have to eat food high in calories the following day to replenish. Sounds like a good plan to me. Looking forward to seeing what lies beyond the boundaries of the metropolis.
That’s a pretty good strategy. I definitely eat well while I’m traveling
Walking through the shops & markets is fun, Honduras has a lot of wood craft carvers in a village named the Valley of the Angels. The craft beer is a surprise, i would expect more wine & liquors in South America.
Valley of the Angels sounds great. And yes the craft beer was a surprise for me too
Nicely presented Alice.
Many thanks!
you're welcome @@AliceFordAdventures
مدينة جميلة 😄
Excelente
Honestly, I'm not that open to new and bizarre foods when traveling. (I don't drink the water either.) I did not try the guinea pig in Quito but I did try it in Cusco, Peru several years later. And you're right--it tastes like chicken. Looking forward to some more Ecuador videos.
Almost every hotel and restaurant in Ecuador had filtered water so I never had to worry about that here. I can’t wait to explore Peru
Awesome!!! I love South America, but haven't been to Ecuador. I've been planning a trip to it and the Galapagos though. Doing that or Patagonia in December. Recommendation for ya: pop down to Peru and see Machu Picchu if you possible. It's literally the coolest thing I'v seen in the Western Hemisphere. The Nazca lines (about 6 hour drive south of Lima) are worth seeing too.
Thanks Brian. I am hoping to get to Peru in the next year
Very nice production Alice ! The umbrellas were fun but it was all great !
Thanks Geoffrey
Great video
Thank you so much
Lindo pasaje
ecuadorian cuisine is the best one in south america
It’s so good! I loved it
Was going to the equator worth it over say banos day trip or cotapaxi? Planning a trip to Quito next week with kids. Thanks for the great video with all the information
If it’s either or than no, Banos is definitely better for kids as there are pools, adventure swings, waterfalls, zip lines and more kid friendly adventures. But if they like nature, horseback riding and farm animals Cotopaxi is for sure a great option. I would skip the equator it’s cool but it’s a 2 hour trip and outside of the fun experiments they do at The real equator museum is not to be compared to your other options
Bandido Brewing best IPA of South America!
So many awesome beers there
Great video Alice and very informative! Would you mind sharing the hotel you stayed in if you recommend it?
You sound out of breath climbing those stairs to get to the top. But once there the views are as amazing as I remember. Cannot wait to go back with my wife whose an Ecuadorian. Her attempts to get me to learn spanish... is slow going. One day though, at least enough to get me by. And oh my oh my, humitas. I am sooooo looking forward to having those again. And my wife has made me that dish right after the humita closeup. So good. 👍 👍 👍
Oh the swing. I definitely remember that. I was to chicken to swing on it, but did sit on it with my wife and have photo proof. I'm deathly afraid of heights, it's my weakness lol. That and sweet tooth. You're also braver than I to eat cuy, because I met someone who raises them for food and felt so bad. Also, I do not remember the name of the restaurant in Quito, but it is two levels and rustic sort of and they served the best blackberry smoothy juice drink I've ever had.
Your video brings back so many good memories and cannot wait to go back, and end of July and first week of August me and my wife will be going.
Amazing video! I'm planning on going to Quito next year. I dont speak Spanish. Do you think that would be a HUGE barrier for travel there, or do most people also speak English?
In Quito a fair number of people speak some English especially tour guides and hoteliers but I would for sure learn some basic Spanish if you are trying to travel without tours or travel on a budgetZ
come I am a college student from quito if you want i can give you a tour or be your guide!
I know english
La parroquia guapulo es un lugar a visitar por muchas cinsideraciones!!

If you live in the Unied States. You are in America my dear but the Southern part of the continent or southern region known as South America.

HERMOSO QUITO LA CIUDAD MAS GRANDE Y POBLADA 3.400.000 habitantes
👍👍👍👍
Love you vlog!! How should one dress going to Quito end of May? I’m traveling with my two little kids (2yr old and 4 yr old). Should a denim jacket worn or a down jacket or a fleece one? Lol coz that could make a big difference. Want to pack lightly but appropriately. Would love to hear your recommendation.
Low temperatures will most likely be in the 50's Fahrenheit in the evenings and up to the mid 70's in the day. If you are venturing out of Quito, to the mountains you will certainly want something more like a fleece. It also rains often so be prepared for that. I would recommend something you could layer.
@@AliceFordAdventures thank you so much!! Hoping my baggage doesn’t go overweight with all the jackets! Lol.
❤🇪🇨
I am not willing in trying too much of what I do not know. Local fruits 🥥🍌and veggies 🥦🌶🌽 would be a main diet as a start, adding meat 🦜🦧🐑 over time once getting familiar with sanitary guidelines. Seafood 🦐🐟would be much of a temptation though. I have had the best fish once in Venezuela, freshly caught the same morning right out of the ocean.
The fresh fruits and juices in Ecuador were delicious!
Bakery, fruits and coffee would be sublime ☕️🥗🥙🥐 as breakfast.
I'm grinning at your drinking in a church.
Are you with a tour guy or not? I’m planing to go solo to Quito this year but I’m a little afraid. It will be my first time traveling by myself. Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you. Love your videos.
I was alone but hired a driver to take my from city to city, also had tour guides for various activities but was alone much of the time. I never felt unsafe when I was alone, but it’s best to have cameras and expensive items hidden in Quito
How was the locro de papas?
It was delicious!

Damn Girl...Healthy.
Hello Alice; I just found Your videos in Ecuador, I did like all of them, thaks of what You have saying of Ecuador; I was born in Ecuador, I spent a lot of My life in the USA. I will like to ask You more things about Ecuador; since I haven't been back for a period of 33 years. I wish You can get in contact with me by my e-mail, I will appreciate. Regards.

I would have thought that you were a vegetarian.
I am a vegetarian but when traveling to unique places I like to be open to trying new things
Nunca fuiste a san roque por lo que no has conocido Quito verdaderamente
An humita is not a tamale…
It’s like a tamale, which is what I said.
Alice LIKE YOU please WRITE ME I living in QUITO LUZ of américa
Second highest city in the world eh?
Yep according to many lists that is the fact
It's the second highest capital not city@@AliceFordAdventures
@@jasonwalimaki8784 yes capitol city, that’s correct. I realize I forgot a word in there, quite an important one albeit
It’s Hee-to not pronounced Qee-to.
its Qee-to bro
Sadly it is now a very unsafe place.
Pls don’t ever compare Hinduism to Christianity. That is such a white person thing to say and do. Especially in a country like Ecuador.
What's wrong with Ecuador?! It's one of the best countries of Latin America in many ways... even more advanced than some Indian states where they p00p 💩 in the streets. So, if you were trying to say Ecuador is inferior, try again!
Son estafadores
What a flake 😒

Quito no es pueblo es una ciudad la capital de ecuador
2nd highest city in the world? Where did you get that from? Lhasa and La Paz are both higher up than Quito. Though, Quito is just a few hundred metres higher up than Bogotá.

La Paz, Bolivia - 3,869m. The cityscape of La Paz, Bolivia. ...
Quito, Ecuador - 2,784m. Quito, Ecuador. ...
Toluca, Mexico - 2,648m. The cityscape of Toluca. ...
Cochabamba, Bolivia - 2,621m. ...
@@AliceFordAdventures That list is for Latin America. You left out Lhasa in Tibet.
@@boink800 sorry but I’ve looked this up in multiple places. Lhasa May not be designated as a city as it isn’t on any of the lists
@@AliceFordAdventures Your list is incorrect. Lhasa and La Paz are both over 3000 metres
La paz is the tallest city in the world. As I said Lhasa may not be designated as a city. That list is from the world economic forum. Lhasa is not listed
