I have traveled extensively throughout Ecuador many times. Experienced the train and bus from Quito to Cuenca via Riobamba. Traveled to Banos by taxi from Riobamba. Seen the tourist areas all around Quito Fortunately, I have been to the Galapagos 3 times, on two different ships. Have traveled from Ecuador to Peru by land twice.

Hi Robert, I thought you were thinking of driving around the Quito area but not all the way to Cuenca. I really have never met or seen any American rent a car in Ecuador. If you want, e-mail me directly
