What are clients says
Awesome day!
We saw so many Holwer monkeys in the rain forest. It was magical. Our guide was very well trained and spoke excelent English. The food was very strange looking but turned out to be very tasty. We were so tired after all the fun. Highly recomend this shore excursion tour.
Best Chocolate ever
I felt the Cacoa tour was spectacular. We had so much fun making our own chocolate mixes. The coffee was good too. Guides were very patient and flexible. We would like to come back and try another shore tour soon.
Nice town, well organized tour
Manta is a fantastic place to visit. I booked our shore excursion with 11 friends. Tom and his guides gave great service from start to finish. The Food was amazing. The beach bar was paradise. Keep up the good work.

Manta Shore Excursions: Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about safety, timing, and logistics before stepping off your cruise ship in Ecuador.
What happens if my cruise ship arrives late or misses the port entirely?
If your cruise vessel skips the Port of Manta due to weather conditions or mechanical issues, we issue a 100% full refund. If the ship simply arrives late, we automatically synchronize our departure times with your new docking window so you don’t lose your tour.
How do independent tours guarantee I will get back to the ship on time?
Our company operates under an ironclad back-to-ship guarantee. We plan every itinerary around your specific vessel’s schedule, using private transport and optimized routes. We always aim to drop you back at the terminal security checkpoint 60 to 90 minutes before your final all-aboard time.
Is Manta safe for international cruise travelers?
Yes, the main maritime tourist corridors, the cruise terminal, and the historical highlights maintain an intense local municipal police presence during port days. Traveling with a trusted private operator adds a total layer of insulation, ensuring a worry-free day.
Where do we meet our tour guides after leaving the ship?
After taking the free port shuttle bus to the passenger terminal, walk straight through the main building. Our professional English-speaking guides will be waiting directly outside the terminal exit gates holding a personalized sign with your name on it.
