Guayaquil was interesting and different from what I like to visit. I actually went on a trip for work and had some free time so went out and explore. I took an Uber for $5 (transportation is super cheap) to the bottom of the 444 steps (Las Peñas). Go really early in order to get nobody in your future insta pic lol. Once you head up the steps there are stores on your way up. Kee I’m kind of you go super early they may still be closed. Once you reach the top of the 444 step there is a little church and a lighthouse. Warning you can go up the light house just know there are more stairs! After that make your way down and head to carnival rides by the “malecon”. You can the Guayaquil Ferris wheel and get a good view of the city and the local neighborhoods. They kinda look like the favelas from Brazil. Once done here walk along the male on park and make your way to the iguana park. This was probably the highlight of the trip. These guys are huge and very relaxed but be careful not to get smacked by their tails. There is another church across from the park which is very popular and the most important in Guayaquil. There is also shopping near by and is very affordable. Watch your bags and belongings, it can get really crowded.
