Cerro Jaboncillo - Discovering the Ancient Cultures of Manabi - 5 hours
Long before the Spaniards or the Incas set foot on what is now Ecuadorian land, there were highly developed cultures whose traditions and inventions inspired the later civilizations and still amaze us to the day. From having created the precious so-called Panama Hat to sea trading and navigating skills that allowed them to extend their influence as far south as Chile and as far north as the California Gulf! This is how ancient and important the Manteños are to yesterdays and today’s global culture.
 
Let us take you on a journey along some of Ecuador’s most beautiful beaches, where the golden sand and the orange-colored skies will make for a dream-like scenery. On the road you will discover and embrace the very spots motivated the ancient inhabitants in developing societies and sacred places, inspired by their study and knowledge of the elements. Cerro Jaboncillo (Jaboncillo Hill) is a ceremonial place where a wide array of archeological sites and native flora and fauna coexist in a unique ecosystem dependent on water cycles.
 
The adventure here begins at the foot of the hill, where you will learn about the area’s proud legacy by visiting the Interpretation Center that showcases the ancient ceremonial halls and recreates the meetings between Chiefs!
 
The next step is heading towards the archaeological site and find yourself before the ancient U-shaped stoned seats of power, where only the chiefs could sit and make important decisions for their people.
 
Without a doubt, this experience will be an excellent opportunity to dive into the past, and understand how the early civilizations functioned, and how their understanding of the elements and commerce influenced the later inhabitants. This, while sharing a word with the actual proud descendants of the Manteño peoples and supporting their efforts to show the world the developments, knowledge, and importance of their ancestors.

Puerto Cayo | Castro-Organic Experience- 6.5 hours
A day to learn about self-sustainable and healthy eating habits, today, all the food we’ll eat will be organic and have been picked the same day by ourselves, it will be complimented with seafood delivered by local fishermen that are caught sustainably in the neighboring beaches.
 
Oceanside Farms is an eco-conscious residential community and private co-op farm in Puerto Cayo, Ecuador.  It is a 25-acre, low-density community dedicated to exploring a contemporary approach to healthful living. Situated along Ecuador’s Pacific Riviera in the town of Puerto Cayo and designed with a private vegetable patch, the development is founded on the belief that clean air, fresh and sustainably harvested food, and a diverse and open-minded community are essential to cultivating health and wellness.
 
At Oceanside Farms one is always literally surrounded by the highest quality ingredients available, hence the common reference that residents live a “farm-to-table & dock-to-dish” lifestyle. 
 
A recognized chef from Ecuador will accompany us as we pick fresh products from the patch which will be part of our lunch menu.  The chef will describe the different products and their qualities and properties. All these products are cultivated upholding simple, time-tested farming practices while also pioneering innovative methods of growing and harvesting food. Eschewing the monoculture approach to cultivating land, the farm takes the shape of a landscaped garden, an evolving vista of edible and medicinal plants and fruit tree orchards embedded with a nursery, stations of raised planting beds, dedicated zones for hydroponics and microgreens, beekeeping, and a central greenhouse. Using leading practices in permaculture we designed our farm to promote the natural richness of the land and to avoid the use of chemicals and genetic modification.
 
Once we’ve collected our bounty, we head towards the kitchen to see the chef in action creating delicious dishes using the harvest.  It will be a hands-on experience as we interact with the chef and learn the techniques and secrets to turn the products into a delicious meal.
 
Once it’s prepared, we enjoy a magnificent lunch surrounded by nature and a beautiful view.

Adding the final touch to this exciting half-day visit the Anthropological and Contemporary Art Museum of Guayaquil (MAAC) that has an area of more than 9000 square feet. The museum is a pleasant surprise, not only because of its display of modern art, but because of the size and extent of its archeological collection.

Lima - City of the Kings (4 hours)

WHAT YOU'LL VISIT
Depart the pier to Lima's main square where the Spanish conqueror, Francisco Pizarro, founded the "City of Kings" in 1535. The Government Palace, Lima City Hall, Archbishop's Palace, and the Lima Cathedral surround the square.
Visit Santo Domingo Convent, the oldest church and convent in Lima. The foundation of the city of Santo Domingo was conceived by a friar named Tomas de San Martin, who later served as the Preceptor Prior to the Dominican Order. As in all convents located between the jirones of Lima and Camana, Santo Domingo is sort of a city within a city and is comprised of a succession of cloisters and yards surrounded by service areas and communal rooms. Both Saint Rose and Saint Martin de Porres are buried in Lima, as is the Spanish Saint San Juan Masias. Construction of the Santo Domingo Convent began in 1540, but it was later modernized into its present neo-classical style in the 18th century. In 1730, the greater, or general, hall was built - a work of art that later became a part of the city's more unified ornamental groups.
The visit Casa Aliaga, the oldest house in the Americas, which has been continuously occupied by 18 generations of the Aliaga family; tour the impressive colonial residence, containing valuable Peruvian art and artifacts.
 
After you leave colonial Lima, you will drive through the residential districts of San Isidro and Miraflores. Both are suburbs where the rich and intelligentsia live. There are many large mansions, colonial buildings and fine hotels. Finally, you'll stop at El Parque del Amor for a great ocean view before finishing your tour. After this stop reboard the motor-coach to return to the pier.

WHAT YOU'LL SEE ALONG THE WAY
To truly feel the spirit of the city, your tour begins with the Colonial sites of Lima, passing by the Plaza San Martin, the Plaza Mayor with its Cathedral, and the Government Palace.

The artworks from Ancient Peru correspond to the geographic area of the south Andes and belong to the Mr. José Ignacio Lambarri collection. Tiahuanaco and Inca cultures were developed on this territory. The works from the vice regal period consist of paintings, sculptures, furniture and silver works that belonged to the Pedro de Osma Gildemeister collection (1901-1967). Paintings from the eighteenth-century Cuzco school are among the highlighted pieces of the vice regal art collection. This valuable artistic heritage is currently exhibited in the Pedro de Osma house, built in 1906 by his father, the politician and notary Pedro de Osma y Pardo.

Pachacamac and the Paso Horses (8 hours)

An awesome journey into the past, today's tour starts with a visit to the archaeological ruins of Pachacamac. This fascinating site takes its name from the Quechua words 'pacha' and 'camac' meaning 'Lord of the World'. It was predominantly a religious place throughout Peru's history and contains a great number of adobe structures that remain today. The most significant of these are the Old Temple, the Temple of the Sun, and the Temple of the Moon. From Ancient Peru we then enjoy an experience from the Peru of today, by lunching at one of the nearby haciendas. For lunch the owners of the hacienda join us. They will present an exhibition of their Paso, or Stepping horses, unique to Peru, before returning to Lima.

LUNCH
Pachamanca lunch is served at the Hacienda. Pachamanca is a sort of meat along with potatoes, set potatoes, corn, and fava beans cooked under the ground.

The Circuit has the largest fountain complex in the world, displaying 13 distinct fountains which are illuminated at night, with changing colour schemes. A colourful light show, synchronised with Peruvian music makes the fountains sparkle and shine as the water flows in unique patterns and shapes.
