Top Guayaquil On the Water

If you can’t make it to the Galapagos, see some of the best Ecuadorian wildlife on a 6-hour tour from Guayaquil. Complimentary round trip transportation from your hotel eliminates the stress of taxis and buses. Board your boat at the pier, then head to Puerto El Morro to see mangroves, albatrosses, and blue-footed boobies. The highlight of the tour (aside from a provided lunch) are the bottlenose dolphins, known locally as bufeos.

Discover the best of Guayaquil, Ecuador’s largest city and the vibrant Pearl of the Pacific, in a half-day tour combining history, culture, and nature. Start at Seminario Park (Iguanas Park), where friendly iguanas roam among sculptures and gardens. Continue to the elegant Crystal Palace and Administration Square, surrounded by historic buildings showcasing the city’s heritage. Enjoy panoramic views of the lively Malecón 2000 waterfront, then explore Las Peñas, the oldest neighborhood, famous for colorful colonial houses, cobblestone streets, and scenic viewpoints over the city and river. End your tour at the Historic Park, a unique cultural and ecological space where wildlife, traditions, and urban heritage reveal the life and legacy of Ecuador’s coast. A perfect half-day experience to see Guayaquil’s highlights, combining culture, history, and nature in every stop.
