What’s the experience like?

Our driver pulled up right on time outside my hostel in Baños—no waiting around, no crowds, just a quiet morning with the sound of birds echoing off the hills. I tossed my bag in the back and settled into a cool, clean seat. The car smelled faintly of eucalyptus from the trees lining the road out of town. It felt good not having to worry about bus tickets or jostling for space at the terminal.

We made our way through winding roads, passing tiny villages where kids waved as we drove by. Our driver knew every shortcut; he pointed out spots where traffic usually gets stuck but today we breezed right through. The trip was smooth—just under three hours—so much faster than any public bus I’ve tried before. I watched clouds roll over the mountains as we got closer to Quito, feeling grateful for the extra time I’d have to explore once we arrived.

In Quito, we were dropped off right at our hotel door in the new town—no need for taxis or extra walking with heavy bags. The whole ride felt safe and easy, especially since there was air conditioning (a relief after some stuffy rides I’ve had elsewhere). If you’re traveling with kids or lots of luggage, this private transfer between Quito and Baños is honestly a game changer.
