Resplan
Nära Guayaquil kommer vi att besöka Churute Mangroves Ecological Reserve. Det är en av de viktigaste platserna i reservatet på grund av mängden sötvattensfåglar som bor på platsen. Vi gör en tur med kanot i 40 minuter där vi visualiserar bildandet av den största i Stillahavskusten i Sydamerikas mynning. Sedan ska vi gå på tjutarnas väg. Det är 1,4 kilometer att gå genom den tropiska torra skogen och du kan se apor och fåglar som är inhemska i området. Turnén är genomsnittlig. Mangrove anses vara en viktig plats i Ramsar i kantonen Naranjal, Guayas-provinsen 40 kilometer från staden Guayaquil.
Efter besöket i Mangroves Churute begav vi oss till en kakaoplantage Hacienda. Lär dig vilka typer av plantering, lite historia om gården, kommer att gå genom plantagen och utarbeta hemlagad choklad med samma frö som du samlar. Efter rundturen kan du förvänta dig en traditionell ecuadoriansk lunch tillagad med ingredienser från gården. Senare åker du tillbaka till Guayaquil.

Haimi (I hope I am spelling his name correctly), was super professional, kind and very well knowledgeable. We learned so much and enjoyed this tour.

We are delighted to hear that you had an incredible experience and that our guide made it so enjoyable and enriching. We hope to see you again soon!
Great excursion from Guayaquil. Professional tour guide and good variety with river boat cruise, howler monkeys, many birds species and a visit to the artisian Cocoa farm.
We had such an excellent time on this tour! We live in Guayaquil and so appreciated having a guide to take us through Churute. We hope to do this again with future visitors! The chocolate experience was awesome as well!
This tour was absolutely amazing!! I ended up getting a solo trip with just the guide. Jaime was amazing and clearly knew so much about Guayaquil. I was only in mainland Ecuador for 1 day and this was the best way I could’ve spent it!
The boat trip through the mangroves was pleasant, and seeing the birds was great. So so many shades of green. Note that it is a small motorboat (what I'd call a panga, not a kayaka). The tour of the cacao farm was utterly fabulous and not to be missed. I learned so much and got to taste so many amazing things. Lunch was also pleasant-- though note that Ecuadorans tend to eat a later lunch than Americans do. Our guide was very informative and good company.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the mangrove walk and that the cocoa farm was to your liking. It is true that the variety of colors and biodiversity in the mangroves are impressive. We also appreciate your comments about the type of boat and the lunch schedules, these are certainly important details for first time visitors! We are glad that the guide was to your liking and that you learned and enjoyed the day, we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again soon!
Our guide was great but the experience lacked a little, we weren’t able to find the howling monkeys and the cocoa plantation was nothing like the photos on Viator, definitely not where we were! All in all it was interesting but would not recommend for an all day tour.
Dear Bonnie. We are very sorry that your experience was not what you expected, as for the monkeys, the vast majority always show themselves, and as for the river tour, we had a problem with the boat at the last minute which did not allow the experience to be fully realised, however our guide tried to compensate you with an additional tour of the Las Peñas neighbourhood in Guayaquil. We hope to welcome you back for more experiences in the future.
Great experience! The boat trip through the mangroves was fantastic. As well as the monkey watching. A really special day however the stay at the kakao farm was rather short. Thanks again to the tour guide who made this trip unforgettable!
Hi Ulrike! It was so nice to have you with us. This tour is fantastic and we are so glad you got to enjoy it with us
Our tour guide was the best, thank you Jaime, for an amazing day! We learn so much about Ecuador and all it has to offer.
Hello 584roc Thank you very much for your comments, they are very valuable for us. We are glad to know that you had a good time, we hope you come back soon.
