Rejseplan
Vi begynder turen i den berømte Seminario Park, også kendt som Iguana Park. Denne lille, men emblematiske park er hjemsted for adskillige leguaner, der strejfer frit blandt besøgende. Her kan du observere disse fascinerende krybdyr tæt på, fodre dem og endda tage nogle billeder med dem.
Borgmesterkontoret og Administrationspladsen: Vi fortsætter vores tur mod Administration Square, hvor Guayaquil Mayor's Office-bygningen ligger. Dette sted er et administrativt centrum og et vigtigt historisk punkt i byen. Pladsen er prydet med statuer og haver, og er et fantastisk sted at lære om lokalhistorien og beundre den neoklassiske arkitektur i det kommunale palads.
Guayaquil katedral: Et par skridt fra Parque Seminario ligger den imponerende katedral Guayaquil, officielt kendt som Metropolitan Cathedral of San Pedro. Denne kirke i nygotisk stil er et af de vigtigste katolske templer i byen. Dens interiør, prydet med farvet glas og imponerende arkitektoniske detaljer, tilbyder et rum af ro og hengivenhed.
Det mauriske tårn: Går vi lidt længere, når vi det mauriske tårn, også kendt som det offentlige ur. Dette tårn er med sin karakteristiske Mudejar-stil et af de mest anerkendte ikoner i Guayaquil.
Malecon 2000: Derefter tager vi til Malecón 2000, et omfattende rekreativt og turistområde, der strækker sig langs Guayas-floden. Her finder du en kombination af grønne områder, historiske monumenter og forlystelsesområder. Det er et ideelt sted for en afslappende gåtur med en fantastisk udsigt over floden og byen. Vi vil besøge Rotonda's Hemicycle, hvor statuerne af Simón Bolívar og José de San Martín er placeret.
Las Peñas Oldtown: Vi afslutter turen i Las Peñas-kvarteret, den ældste sektor i Guayaquil. Dette maleriske kvarter er med sine brostensbelagte gader og farverige huse i kolonistil en historisk og kulturel perle. Bestigning af trapperne fra Numa Pompilio Llona Street til Santa Ana Hill vil give dig mulighed for at nyde en spektakulær udsigt over byen og floden. Undervejs finder du kunstgallerier, caféer og kunsthåndværksbutikker, der gør dette område til et dejligt sted at udforske.

I can't say enough about our excellent guide, Francisco! He was friendly, informative, and flexible. His first priority was to determine what the group wanted to see and do. He could recommend options that would meet our needs, but could easily adjust to satisfy the group. Francisco gave us a great feel of the local culture, including tasting from local fruit stands, a walk around City Hall, a walk along the river, and lunch at a new style restaurant. I highly recommend Francisco!
Our small group of new friends decided last minute to tour Guayaquil on our one free day. Lucky for us, our hotel concierge called Francisco. Francisco (and driver Sonny) customized a day that balanced sites of the city with food experiences and answers to our history questions. He even extended our tour to allow for a hat shop visit and amazing lunch. A kind, funny, thoughtful, intelligent guide. We all highly recommend!
Francisco was a fantastic tour guide, very engaging and eager to share his city and his country with us. We really appreciated that he asked right at the start what we were interested in, then checked with us throughout the day with regard to our interest, pacing, hunger, comfort, etc. He could not have been more hospitable. We initially intended only a three hour tour but we were all having such a good time that we kept going for seven hours! Again, he was most accommodating. We had a great day! Highly recommend Francisco and Protours!
My boyfriend and I had a lovely tour of Guayaquil. Our awesome guide Julio and stellar driver Javier picked us up at 10:00am at our hotel. We had an air conditioned van all to ourselves which was such a treat. We saw many touristic spots including Las Peñas, Parque Centenario, Malecón, and rode on the Aerovía. We felt safe and comfortable the whole time. I am really happy I did this tour and left my hotel to see some incredible attractions in a growing and modern city! The tour was conducted in English and Spanish. Great communication and help from Francisco after booking. Thanks for a wonderful day filled with memories!
we’re visiting Guayaquil again after 32 years, to celebrate my parents’ 60th wedding anniversary with close family and friends. we had a late start today and decided to switch our plans around which led us to book this last minute tour. immediately, they were responsive, attentive and accommodating. they picked us up earlier than expected and outside the location range the app had set. that’s when we met our tour guide, Julio, and driver, André - absolutely phenomenal people. Julio is funny, personable, caring and really enjoys his job - they make an excellent duo and made us feel comfortable. we had an excellent and enjoyable time, and our group was able to enjoy the tour in Spanish and English. they were even able to customize the trip for us a bit which was a heartwarming and meaningful gesture. we were so happy with the tour and their service that we booked another last minute tour for tomorrow! highly recommend this service and can’t wait to meet them again. thank you for making our trip so special!
My husband and I came to Ecuador for a wedding and decided last minute to book a tour. We are sooo happy we found Francisco! We only had 1 day to explore the city and him and Andrew took us all over and even went out of their way to take us to extra stops that included the wedding venue! They truly went above and beyond for us and we left with an all new appreciation for Ecuador/Guayaquil.
Francisco, our guide, & Andrew, our driver, arrived promptly at our hotel lobby for a customized tour for my husband and I. Francisco’s energy, enthusiasm, & knowledge of his country are vast. And Francisco must know everyone in Ecuador! We arrived a day early to Guayaquil for an organized 12 day tour with a big tour company, so we wanted to see & do things in the city that we would not do with our big group. So I showed Francisco our agenda and he made sure to not duplicate any of those, taking us to highlights we would have otherwise missed. Great mix of sites & food — oh the food! And because we were in a private car, we were able to traverse a wide area efficiently. Fun fun day! We travel a lot and these folks are excellent. Highly recommend them!
Great tour on short notice. Hit all the highlights of Guayaquil. Deep understanding of history, culinary, indigenous, and modern life. Great company that kept is safe and engaged. Highly recommend.
This was a wonderful sightseeing tour of Guayaquil. Our driver was courteous and made the journey comfortable, while our guide Julio was knowledgeable, engaging, and provided fascinating insights into the city’s history, culture, and landmarks. The tour was both informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended.
We had a great time with our guide Julio who has a genuine passion for Guayaquil. He was very informative and amusing. Highly recommend this tour
