The minute you step out of your Guayaquil Hotel, get ready for a mesmerizing journey. This trip commences with a tranquilizing canoe ride and an adventurous hike through the tropical rainforest.
Also, get prepared to be jolted by encountering the howler monkeys in the middle of the natural habitat
in the pristine tropical forest. If you plan the tour during the rainy season, you will be delighted to see a small waterfall on the southeast slope of the hill, which can be easily reached in a 2-hour hike.

Cần Quan Tâm
This whole tour has been designed to give you an exciting and vibrant, fun-filled time that you can always cherish and remember. The Churute Mangrove Ecological Reserve is among the most well- maintained mangrove reserve. It has the most delicate birds which you can just dream of. Near Guayaquil lies the most exotic Churute Mangroves Ecological Reserve. One of the most enormous amounts of freshwater birds resides in this place and gives the reserve its utmost charm. A 40-minute canoe ride will freshen up your vitals. Still, you will also witness the formation of one of the largest estuaries on the Pacific Coast of South America. After the breezy 40 minute ride, you will be taken on a walk through the path of Howlers. This is the pathway of the tame monkeys, which are not only well trained but also exceedingly happy in their native environment. Lose yourself in the epic feeling of freedom with the monkeys dancing around and exotic birds excitedly chirping here and there. Feel their melodious whispers and sweetest songs and experience one of the most kinetic moments ever. It is not a very harassing or tiring tour. You will only have to walk through the howler monkeys.

"Go to the Zoo" Instead

1.00We had booked a private tour for 10 people to go see the ecological reserve for a day. The tour driver arrived hours late to pick us up, then informed us that they could NOT provide the tour. (The driver suggested we "go to the zoo," instead the ecological reserve. I wasn't sure if he was joking or not.) The driver left, saying the tour company would contact us about the cancellation and would provide a FULL refund. Since BM Tours did NOT contact us - and stopped answering our calls or replying to our voicemails - I submitted a request to TripAdvisor/Viator. I received an automated email response with only a partial refund - for a third of what I had originally paid. I called (TripAdvisor) to inquire. They could not provide any explanations - or provide the FULL refund for services NOT received (due to the tour company's cancellation that was NOT our fault). I have reached out to my credit card company to investigate.

5.00This is a great trip. Jamie our guide was very engaging and knowledgeable. He made the 1 hour drive to the reserve through rural Ecuador very interesting. The boat trip itself snd the forest hike were very good, although the monkeys were on siesta by the time we did the walk.
Interesting, Fun, and Memorable

5.00Such a wonderful experience. Our guide Jamie was knowledgeable, thoughtful and accommodating. He was flexible on our start time pick up from our hotel, and really gave us great knowledge throughout the day. The cruise along the Mangroves to see the birds and the trip to the forest preserve to see the howler monkeys were definitely worth the trip. Thank you!
Mangroves boat tour and jungle walk to see Howler Monkeys

5.00This trip was an amazing experience that we had booked as an add on to our trip to Ecuador . It was well worth the cost as it was a private tour for just us and our driver/ guide knew where to take us and stayed with us for each part of the walking and boating tour. With our guide Jamie, We were able to see everything that was listed in the brochure at a very leisurely pace, that our guide had great history with the area and the people that ran the tour. If you get to Guayaquil in Ecuador book this side trip as it was really interesting at a relaxed pace.
Nice trip

4.00It was a nice experience. Saw a good number of birds and the mangroves were beautiful. However, I don't think it was worth the amount of money that I paid. Much too expensive for what was experienced.
Felt like you were walking in the jungle

4.00Our guide was excellent and full of interesting information. Days before our trip they received a lot of rain. River was very high on our river. Due to high tide we did not see as many animals (alligators & etc) but we saw many beautiful birds. Still an enjoyable boat trip. Walking through the jungle to waterfall was fun but very hot. Bring water, bug spray and hiking shoes. As you will be climbing over rocks and stumps. The noise from the monkeys and other creatures made you feel you were truely waking in the jungle. We saw howling monkeys very high in the treetops. Due to rains part of the howling monkey path was closed. Tour guides did their best as there's not much we could do due weather related issues. In the end we really enjoyed our tour.
Great trip, excellent guide

5.00Awesome experience. We originally booked this tour, but was contacted by the tour operator that due to a scheduling conflict we would be joining additional people, but received a free upgrade for a full-day tour including visiting a cacao farm and lunch. Just reviewing the Ecological Reserve part of the day, it was a great half-day with a super kind and friendly guide! Jaime is the man. The boat tour in the mangroves was really nice, and the hike was short but enjoyable with lots of howler monkeys, despite all the mosquitos (bring bug spray and long pants/shirts!). Overall a great trip with an exceptional guide, but recommend booking for the full-day tour with the cacao farm as well, instead of just the reserve!
Marvelous mangroves

5.00Terrific adventure with a charming guide, Hymie. He picked us up from our hotel in Guayaquil and promptly told us to go back to our rooms and out on long pants and shirts to minimize mosquito bites. Great tip. Then he regaled us with stories of his service with the air force and Latam airlines. His English was fantastic and he was so considerate. He pointed out some fabulous fruit and fish markets along the way and then we met with a local guide, Carlos, required for the area. We had a hike of about 2 miles in a loop through the jungle spotting and hearing several packs of howler monkeys and native birds. Some interesting tarantula webs and flora too, including a tree that’s sap smells like garlic - a natural insect repellent. We then went on to the mangroves for a fun trip down the river. Our guides spotted a few shy caimans, fish, and birds galore. Fun day!
