Guayaquil

Tour guide/driver showed up 1/2 hour late. Did a decent job with the tour but cut it short from the stated length of our tour.

Excellent start for exploring a new city

Guayaquil is a beautiful city with a long past, you really can get to know these things when you have someone along that knows all of this. My guide not only knew so much of the history of the city and country as a whole but also tailor made the tour to my needs, special places that I would like to visit, my interest (like local food and customs) were incorporated into the experience. If you want an excellent start to exploring Guayaquil then take this tour
