With Galapagos Boat Cruises, you get the best choice of Guayaquil hotels. This is based upon first hand knowledge and what we believe are the best locations and most comfortable hotels.

Guayaquil is a port city in Ecuador, known as a gateway to Pacific beaches and the Galapagos Islands. Most of our Galapagos cruise customers will spend at least one night here on route to their ultimate cruise destination.

Stretching along the Guayas River is the waterfront Simón Bolívar promenade, home to the La Rotonda monument. In the north, Las Peñas is a neighbourhood full of colourful houses that light up the hill. Stairs lined with cafes and art galleries lead up to Santa Ana Hill,  the site of th Santa Ana chapel, a lighthouse and commanding views of the city.
