Audio Guide of Samanes Park

Samanes Park is open to the public from 06:00 to 22:00 every day of the week. You can get there easily by public transport (several bus lines), taxi, or private vehicle, as it has ample parking. For more details on how to get there, you can visit its official website.

Good news! Access to Samanes Park is completely free. You can enjoy all its facilities at no cost. Only some specific activities or services within the park, such as bicycle rentals or the use of certain sports courts, may have an additional charge.

To fully enjoy Samanes Park, I recommend setting aside at least half a day, around 3 to 4 hours. Its vast size and variety of activities (green areas, sports courts, lagoons, etc.) invite a relaxed visit. If you want to exercise or do a specific activity, plan for more time.

Samanes Park is one of the largest green lungs in Guayaquil and an emblematic urban regeneration project. Opened in 2010 (with later expansions), its goal is to provide a space for recreation, sports, and community gathering, becoming a benchmark for healthy living in the city and the country.

Because of Guayaquil's climate, I recommend visiting Samanes Park early in the morning (from 06:00 to 10:00) or late in the afternoon (after 16:00) to avoid the intense heat. The coolest months are from June to November. Check the weather forecast before you go.

Yes, Samanes Park was designed with accessibility in mind. It has ramps and paved paths that make movement easier for people with reduced mobility and wheelchair users in most of its main areas. There are accessible restrooms as well. It is always a good idea to check for updates on its website or contact staff for specific details.

Near Samanes Park, you can visit the city's main air and maritime gateway, as well as the Guayaquil Convention Center, which often hosts interesting events.

For the best visit, bring sunscreen, insect repellent, water to stay hydrated, and comfortable clothing. If you are going with family, there are playgrounds for children.
