Guayaquil is Ecuador's largest city, and for many is the gateway to the Galapogos Islands. Almost all flights from Quito to the Galapogos will touch down in Guayaquil en route, so it often makes sense to end your tour of Equador's mainland in Guayaquil and fly from there to the Galapagos. Guayaquil doesn't have much to offer in terms of tourism, however it does have great restaurants and buzzing nightlife and numerous luxury hotels that can be booked online.
