Car and Taxi Tours in Manta

Pacoche Hiking Tour

Must do experience

Don’t usually leave a review on executions but needed to take the time to write this. This tour is amazing and well worth them money. We couldn’t believe how much we did during the day and just how fun it was. We came from the cruise ship and our guide was waiting for us with a sign with my name it, nice and easy. He then got us in the car and took us to the Pacoche rainforest where we met a local that lived in there. We took a private path in the rainforest away from the busy tourist areas. Our guide translated everything to English and it was so interesting listening to what was being said while learning about he area. We saw the howler monkeys and watched them for a bit, definitely a highlight. We ate fresh fruit, went to a authentic hat making shop (they were not pushing to buy/ a tourist trap), got lunch (delicious and cheap), saw beaches and went to a authentic chocolate making shop with an small, authentic chocolate making factory (again not a tourist trap). Our guide, Antoni, was amazing he was informative, answered all questions and was a genuine fun guy. The driver, Ronald didn’t speak any English but still Antoni was translating even tho he wasn’t talking to us which is a nice touch. Honestly a great experience and would recommend. A must do experience.

Half Day City Tour in Manta and Montecristi Landmarks

Wonderful tour of Manta and Montecristi

This tour was quite interesting of Manta, the “tuna” capital, but the best part was visiting the hat museum in Montecristi where we were able to learn and see the making of a Panama hat- very informative and what an art! We were also able to tour Casa Rosada where we also had coffee and the best empanadas!

Chocolate & Coffee farm Cruiseship Tour in Manta

Exceeded expectations.

We really liked Pedro who spoke understandable English and acted as an interpreter at each of the sites where the owners spoke only Spanish. We were impressed with the in-depth presentations at the chocolate and panama hat stores and the wonderful tour of the coffee plantation. With lunch, the tour was 7+hours.
