Guayas River Catamaran Ride - Sunset -

The Sunset Tour begins with passenger boarding at the Historical Park of Samborondón, a cultural and natural landmark on the banks of the Guayas River.

Once onboard, the catamaran crew completes check-in procedures, provides safety instructions, and ensures all guests are properly wearing life vests.

With everything ready, the catamaran sets sail along the Guayas River, perfectly timed to enjoy the beauty of the sunset. At the start of the experience, each guest is welcomed with a complimentary cocktail to set the mood.

As the journey unfolds, passengers enjoy a panoramic view of Guayaquil. The tour passes by the vibrant neighborhood of Puerto Santa Ana, framed by the historic Santa Ana Hill, with its colorful hillside houses that reflect the city’s heritage. Rising above is The Point, the tallest skyscraper in Ecuador and one of the most iconic symbols of modern Guayaquil.

The route continues toward the famous Malecón 2000, Guayaquil’s most visited attraction. From the river, guests admire the dazzling Ferris wheel “La Perla”, the largest in South America, glowing as the daylight fades. Sailing along the Malecón also reveals plazas, monuments, and gardens, until reaching the elegant Crystal Palace, a 19th-century glass-and-iron landmark that today hosts cultural and social events.

Onboard, guests enjoy attentive waiter and bartender service throughout the journey. Complimentary soft drinks such as iced tea and water are available, while additional cocktails and snacks may be purchased.

The atmosphere is festive, with upbeat music or live DJs, plus interactive games and contests with small prizes for participants. Toward the end of the tour, a lively and colorful “hora loca” celebration fills the boat with energy, music, and fun — the perfect finale to the evening.
