The excursion was the best that I have been on. Jose our guide was very knowledgeable about his country and gave us very interesting information on all the stops we visited. Nothing was too hard to make our experience enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour.

Jose was the most wonderful tour guide. His communication skills are second to none, his knowledge of the areas we visited was impressive and the care he took with the group could not be faulted. This tour covers special sights in Manta. Pacoche Rainforest where the flora and fauna was explained, the highlight seeing the Howler monkeys. Montecrisit (Panama) hat making was unique and super interesting. Other sights covered also worthwhile. A very informative day out.

I really enjoyed visiting the Pacoche rainforest and lighthouse with Fernando. He was prompt and communicated everything clearly. The rainforest was beautiful, and I was lucky to see a howler monkey climbing around in the trees. The view of the coast from the lighthouse was stunning. Chatting over a lunch of tonga and local tea was a highlight. I highly recommend signing up for a tour when you visit Manta! You will get a great sense for Ecuador - its natural beauty and welcoming culture.

Good mix of fish market, city views and Rain Forest. Denis our guide was great and entertaining. No monkeys today though.

Denis, our guide was wonderful and helped to make our day very enjoyable. The forest walk did not offer much to see....the monkeys were a no show. The traditional Ecuador lunch was enjoyable and the hat making demonstration was very interesting. A good day spent in Ecuador.

Overall better than expected. Too much time at the fish market but the rest of the tour is well balanced.

Limited outdoor activity, few trees in a park like and 2 monkeys. The lunch is provided by a local restaurant going out of business because the food is poor. The chicken was served raw, with plenty of peanut butter sauce. Nobody questioned us about peanut butter allergies

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our private tour with Jorge and driver Samuel. The fish market and boat yard were really interesting. We had a private trip into the rainforest and saw a tiger tarantula, tiny frog, and heard howler monkeys in the canopy (and even saw them in the distance). We learned so much about the trees and plant life in the rainforest, too. We followed that with the best lunch - tongas! That was all followed by a beach visit to see the turtle nests and a hike to the lighthouse. It was grueling but beautiful and Jorge made sure we were able to make the climb up and back. We then went to Montecristi to learn how they make the hats and a super tasty (and affordable) chocolate shop. We were returned to the ship with plenty of time to spare, exhausted but so grateful we chose Manta SOS and a private tour, all topped off with our amazing guide and driver. Book with confidence!

We had a great tour of Manta and the surrounding areas with Dennis, our tour guide. Meeting at the cruise terminal was on time as promised. We love the visit to the local fish market to see the fresh catch of the day. People are friendly and we feel safe. Lunch at a local restaurant was very nice. We would not hestitate to book with Manta SOS again in a future visit.

Our guide, Jose was excellent. The tour is a great mix of local culture, food and adventure. The lunch was authentic and delicious. Recommend highly!
