Free Art and Culture Walking Tour in Otavalo
I’m Juan Carlos Minda, a passionate National Tour Guide and Rock Climbing Instructor with years of experience leading unforgettable adventures in Ecuador and Australia. In Ecuador, I founded Aya Huma Experiences, where I guided travelers through the breathtaking landscapes of the Andes, leading high-altitude treks, cultural immersions, and rock climbing expeditions. Specializing in Otavalo and its surroundings, I shared my deep knowledge of indigenous traditions, history, and nature. In Australia, I expanded my expertise as an Adventure Tour Guide, leading thrilling buggy and quad bike tours across rugged terrains and exciting kayak tours through stunning waterways. I also worked as a rock climbing instructor, helping people of all levels connect with the sport and the great outdoors. With a strong background in mountain safety, adventure tourism, and cultural storytelling, I’m dedicated to providing authentic, safe, and enriching experiences that leave lasting memories.
