Pirates of the Pacific - Colonial Highlights Tour in Guayaquil

On this tour, I'll contextualize you on the fascinating history of the pirate attacks, the main causes and consequences of the marauding at the South Pacific coast and of course, the invasions that Guayaquil suffered during its colonial period. I'll also let you know how the city defended itself, for instance taking you to see the replica of a Spanish military fortress that stood against the pirate's attempts to loot the city. Here, I'll explain much of the pirate terminology, their laws & their ranks. We'll visit a museum and former fort as well, where I'll recount the attacks the city suffered. This museum happens to be in a hill that offers panoramic views, so it's also a great photo opportunity. However, a pirate tour wouldn't feel complete unless we actually visited a pirate ship where you can have a true firsthand experience of everything discussed... so what about walking on Captain Morgan's galleon?
