Nancy is a passionate, self proclaimed, PR representative for insects. While earning her Master's degree at the University of Georgia in Entomology, it became crystal clear that most people did not see insects the way she did.
Following her Master's, Nancy flew to the heart of the Ecuadorian cloud forest where she worked in an ecolodge. After two years, Nancy traded her leafy green jungle for the concrete jungle of Quito where she designs her own tours under the name SciBugs. She has been working in Ecuadorian Tourism since 2015.

Fantastic trip!!! Travel was well organized. Accommodations were very good. Food was excellent. No complaints at all!! Nancy is an excellent host and guide; always positive, quickly addressed any need. She is encouraging. She kept group dynamics positive. Very good lectures on insects! Would readily do another trip with her!

We enjoyed great twists and turns through Quito's churches, narrow steps, the Guayasamin art museum and ate a fancy gourmet lunch on the garden terrace atop a fancy chocolate shop. Nancy's attention to detail is amazing and she only take you to her favorite places.

Great introduction and overview of Quito. The guide, Nancy, was informative, entertaining and engaging. She had every logistic detail planned and organized to allow for efficiently visiting multiple sites. We started with the Guayasamin museum, then a rooftop patio lunch. The afternoon was filled with a walking tour around the Historic District with visits to the Basilica and selected cathedrals, with interesting historical information and insights, and a chance to shop if desired. We ended with the overlook at the Panecillo, a huge stature of Mary, followed by a wonderful dinner of local specialties at a restaurant overlooking the twinkling lights of the city. Highly recommend this trip.
