15 Best Things To Do In Guayaquil Ecuador
Many people have told us to skip Guayaquil. We read many opinions that there's not much to do here and it's not worth visiting. So we decided to settle into Ecuador's largest city to investigate.
We were pleasantly surprised to find so many awesome things to do in Guayaquil! Best things to do in Guayaquil Ecuador: We loved the stroll the Malecon 2000, the ride La Perla Ferris Wheel, climbing Cerro Santa Ana and Las Peñas, taking the pirate ship for a cruise on the River Guayas, cycling across Santay Island, eating congrejo criollo, and so much more!
So we wanted to make a video and write a blog post to show other travels that it can be worth a visit. So this video highlights what we found to the best things to do in Guayaquil. You can find all the details and directions on our associated article:

What to do in Guayaquil, Ecuador
We are on are way to the Galapagos and to get to the Galapagos you have to take a flight from Guayaquil, Ecuador. We decided to spend 8 days in Guayaquil, Ecuador before making our way to the Galapagos.
Guayaquil is the most populous city in Ecuador with 3.1 million people living there. The city is quite old, it was founded in 1538. Guayaquil is located in the south of north-andeans subduction zone, which mean’s it’s constantly under threat of major earth quakes and tsunami’s. The last major earth quake was in 2016, a 7.8 magnitude earth quake struck the region.
With only 8 day’s to spend in Guayaquil and with a variety of tours and things to do it was difficult to do all of them.
We stayed at the Wyndam hotel, it’s located in a very convenient location on the Malecon 2000. The Malecon 2000 is a beautiful boardwalk that stretches down the Guayas river. The Malecon 2000, previous referred to as the old Simon Bolivar malecon is quite old and was recently restored. There is now 2.5km of newly restored boardwalk. The boardwalk features museums, carnivals, fairs, roller coasters, IMAX cinemas, shopping, beautiful statues and architecture.
The Malecon 2000 is one of the most popular things to do in Guayaquil and attracts more than 1.5 million people per month. More importantly it’s a safe spot for tourists to roam, use their cameras and have fun with the family.
Half way down the Malecon, you can book a boat ride on a pirate ship which will take you down the Guayas river and show you the beautiful city. If you continue walking, you can leave the Malecon and just a few blocks away is Iguana Park. It’s a small cute little park with ton’s of large iguanas and a small pond with hundreds of turtles in it. We do not recommend leaving the Malecon at night. The Malecon is safe, there is plenty of security, however leaving the Malecon does bring some risks for tourists. If you plan on visiting Iguana park, please do it in the middle of the day and be cautious.
Another great thing to do is visit Las Penas, it’s a short hike to the top 444 steps in total and it will provide you with a beautiful view of Guayaquil and the rivers. Along the way you will find cute restaurants and some tourist shops.

34 Guayaquil Photos That Will Make You Book Your Trip to Ecuador

I went to Guayaquil Ecuador!!!!
This Summer I went to Ecuador on a 2 week mission trip with my church's youth group. I met a lot of wonderful people who God is using to further His Kingdom in Ecuador. It was beautiful to see our group embrace everything that was put in front of them. One day we went into the city to see colonial Guayaquil. In the modern, bustling city we turned a corner and were surrounded by narrow streets and cobblestones. We visited a lighthouse which took us 444 steps to climb! It was very hot and sweaty but it was so worth it to see the view of the city and to spend time with our sister youth group G-Luz from Ecuador.
