Cristina Caisapanta

My name is Cristina, I'm proudly ecuadorian and love every single place in my country; from the Coast of the Pacific Ocean, the Andes to the Amazon Jungle and the wonderful Galapagos Islands. I studied Ecotourism during my bachelor studies. I think that social - ecological and economic sustainability is one of the main features of tourism. To travel and create a possitive impact in locals and travelers lifes through unique natural and cultural experiences is what makes me happy and that is why I'm KimKim travel specialist.
I think that Ecuador is a small country but with a bunches of beautiful and genuine places and people and my personal goal is to show the others the real Ecuador!

How did you get involved in travel?

"Since I was a child, I used to travel a lot to the Coast with my mom and my sister. My mom tought me to love the nature, the landscapes and the rural life: swimming in the clear water rivers, sahring food with family and locals, discovering tastes and unbelivable fruits... On the other side was mi dad, who grow up in the Middle of the Andes, in the middle of the Illinizas mountains. He shared with me and my sister all the andean culture and the passion for hiking. Then, when I have to choose what I wanted to do as professional, I decided to study Ecotourism. Because I wanted to show to the others all the great experiences that I lived in my country. Throught those years I could visit most of biodiverses places in this amazing country. Each time I visit a place I was astonished by the unique and diverse landscapes and cultural experiences that I lived. Now my mission is to show this wonderful country to all the people who wants to have adventures and different life experiences!"

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"One of the best travel experiences that I'll never forget was my first visit to Amazonas Jungle in Ecuador. I'll never forget the magnificence of nature, nature in pure state! Different species of animals giving beautiful espectacles. People from communities giving the warmest welcoming. A different sky colors and the feeling of getting inmerse into a new adventure."

Cristina planned our trip to Ecuador highlands and to Guayaquil. I had my 17 year old and 7 year old with me. We had an absolutely eye opening and unforgettable experience. Our unfatigueable driver-guide in the Highlands, Pablo, took us everywhere and taught us all about Ecuador along the way.

Cristina planned our trip to Ecuador highlands and to Guayaquil. I had my 17 year old and 7 year old with me. We had an absolutely eye opening and unforgettable experience. Our unfatigueable driver-guide in the Highlands, Pablo, took us everywhere and taught us all about Ecuador along the way. We really couldn't have seen all that we did without him, and we felt really grateful. Our itinerary was perfect--interesting for me and fun for the kids. In Guayaquil we had Freddy and Cristopher and had kind of an off the beaten path experience visiting the dolphins and then a chocolate plantation. Everything was so interesting and the food everywhere was fresh and tasty. Cristina did a great job putting together our itinerary. I will recommend friends to visit Ecuador and hope that they will be fortunate enough to work with Cristina though Kimkim. We love Ecuador! Absolutely amazing country!
