sandia, it looks like you’d be heading “towards” cotacochi, and maybe this real estate agent from cotachachi would know van drivers to assist you, just a thought but worth a try, Her name Mickey (American) she’s probably helped clients obtain transportation, good luck, Tracy

Yes, there are vans at the airport. We just moved to Cuenca from the USA with 10 bags. We took a van from the airport to our hotel in Quito, and since we liked him, we called the driver back the next morning and had him drive us from Quito to Cuenca. It cost $300. To Tabacubo should probably be about 1/2 that.
