点评:We scheduled a day trip to visit the Mindo Cloud Forest as part of our visit to Ecuador in May 2024. Our guides at Sabina Tour arranged a customized day for us and picked us up at our hotel in Quito. We arrived at the Casa Divina Eco Lodge for breakfast and then headed out on a fantastic day of hiking in the waterfall sanctuary, enjoying the foods of Ecuador, touring the town of Mindo to experience chocolate making, and birdwatching. The hike in the Cloud Forest was simply amazing. Efrain, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and provided a wealth of information on the vegetation, birds, and insects we encountered along the way. This was not an ordinary walk in the woods! The forest is beyond words and the waterfalls were the highlight of the trip. The hiking can be challenging due to the steep slopes so bring walking poles and good shoes, but it was well worth the effort. The payoff was a beautifully prepared lunch and visit to a chocolate making tour. Bring cash to facilitate buying some chocolate for your trip home! We had so much fun and found the Divina Lodge owners to be so accommodating and friendly. It was a long day due to the drive from Quito and back. I would love to go back and stay at the lodge; their accommodations look very nice!
