Hello. I'm Tamer, your local expert for Ecuador
I've been traveling since 1997, and I've been fortunate to have amazing adventures in many different places throughout the globe. I'm originally from the Middle East, and I've lived in Malaysia, Turkey, the UAE, and Qatar. When I first arrived in Ecuador over 10 years ago, I was immediately mesmerized by its immaculate and immensely wide array of natural treasures, its unique culture, and the kindness of its people.

Why travellers love Tamer
Anthony
05/03/2026“The initial work by Rough Guides to select and suggest local people/Companies for our trip was excellent. Having chosen Tamer (Authentic Travel), we were more and more convinced that he was a perfect choice - knowledge, experience, communication, professionalism, clarity and on top of these, his dedication to ensuring every element of our pre-trip and during the trip itself was the best it could be. When potential issues arose (as they always will), Tamer was ahead of the problem, solving it often before we knew about it. We travel a lot, and this is the best it can be! We do not say this lightly, having given some terrible reviews to those who can't meet at least the minimum to be expected. We would unconditionally recommend both Companies to everyone.”
