I have used Bryan's travel service, called Catsa, to go to Canada. Bryan very quickly found me a very economically priced itinerary. More, as I am an insulin dependent diabetic, he found me a doctor who would write a cover letter for my syringes and needles and came with me to interpret and make sure I got what I needed. He emailed me 48 hours before my home flight to assure me he had checked the flights and they were still in order. He booked a hotel at Guayaquil for me and arranged for me to be picked up at the airport. I have run into some problems with my luggage clearing customs and he is doing all he can to help. Bryan is very courteous, helpful, efficient and charming. Moreover his English is excellent. I cannot recommend him too highly and will always be using his services.

We have twice taken our car to Fabian Avila at Talleres Avila. The work has ranged from standard brake replacement, etc. to complete tune-ups and "custom" fixes. He is professional and competent, trained in the States, and is bilingual. Fabian goes beyond the norm and his prices are very reasonable. Best of all, he understands the concept of service. If looking for a good place to take your vehicle, you can't do better than Fabian. He is located just off of Las Americas near Coral Central. His web site is talleresavilahermanos.com Address: Juan Larrea y Av. las Americas. Contact: 098 752 7701 or 402 4359.
