Other Areas

[Louie OK]

Most of the following was obtained from asking locals, mainly taxi drivers, security guards, etc.
More than once I sensed that the person being asked wasn't forthcoming and had even
answered with intent to lead me astray. Hopefully others can build on these as most I just consider
leads for further investigation. -- Bobisee


Amazon region of Ecuador -- Lago Agrio, Macas, Puyo, Tena, & other smaller places :
Was told by a local that chongos do widely exists in the country's Oriente.
It certainly beckons pioneering for chongo discovery as much as many other parts of the country.


Ambato:
No chongos are permitted. In a neighboring town (or city) I was told one exists.
Can't recall the name of the municipality.


Banos:
No chongos are permitted. In the neighboring town/city of Rio Verde, I was told there is one.


Coca (Amazon area):
In the downtown area, across from the bus station appears to be a chongo. It's called La Gran Manzana or big apple. Several young & sexy women seemed to be hanging around inside and in front. There may be more in this town.


Cuenca:
The Cuenca government (like many other local municipalities) must regulate the chongos to certain sectors of town. The ones already mentioned by Civid and Friky00 are located on an unpaved road just one block up a hill from a heavy traffic principle roadway below. The places here are listed from higher to lower quality and were all $6.
* El Oasis
* Los Tanques
* Chica Chica
* El Candil
* El Mirador
All of these places were open when I visited in the early afternoon and none required a drink as an entrance fee as I wasn't hit up as I entered (though most I didn't stay). I did slim and curvacious "Melody" at Los Tanques whov would do anal for an extra $10, but without photos -- so I stayed away from that hershey highway.

Taxis are supposed to cost $1.50 (according to locals) from hostalandia, but the cabbies often will try to get $2 to 2.50 or more if you allow them.

Also for the adventurous Tungurahua types, there are some more chongos (maybe 2 or 3) in another sector of the city which I haven't been to but was told isn't as "safe" -- probably mostly due to the clubs not being open in the day.


Puerto Lopez:
This safe laid back coastal fishing village has three chongos according to one motorcycle taxista in which he took me to two (2) of them. Both were away from the central touristy area by a 50 cent taxi ride. One which is slightly north of the main streets and inside a building, the other slightly west and is in an outside courtyard -- both walking distance if you want. Ficha = $5, with seemingly no entrance fees. Both places had three women working when I visited (during the mid afternoon) but was told that up to eight or so would be there when it's busy. All ladies were young and pretty. One looked like Wonder Woman in a bikini who would stand in her room's doorway with sweat dripping from her brow waiting for her last fuck to leave her room while challenging the next brave boy to come on in and take a crack at her. WW looked kind of tough but wasn't tough enough to let Bobisee up her backside ;-)


Santo Domingo de los Colorados:
Here is a small addition to an informative post by Siempre Adelante (#18, 06-18-06)
in which I wish I had remembered the it or had copied to print & taken with me.

While on my way to Manta from the beautiful Mindo cloud forest, I stopped over in S.D. just for the evening.
After arriving in the late afternoon, I checked into a hotel very near the bus terminal for an easy early departure the following morning. An early evening stroll around that area revealed that in back of the bus station and it's attached fenced in little park, is a small street with a number of little shops. Among them on the same block are four (4) bars in which the nightime darkness will all shine with green lights. While I only peaked in and noticed younger ladies appearing to be working with plenty of drinking male clients, one cute babe of the only not-so-busy bar met me at the door as I peared in and swore with a grin to my inquiry that these green lighted places were not "chongos". I hadn't asked around, especially among the cabbies about the chongo action, but a street bottled water vendor swore that the green lighted bars were chongos.

BTW, a correction to Siempre Adelante's #18 post in which he stated the population as only being 20,000.
According to the latest Lonely Planet Ecuador travel guide, it has almost 200,000 folks. Probably only a typo...


Latacunga:
No chongos in this city, but at least one exist in nearby San Miguel de Salcedo.


Riobamba:
Was told 2 or 3 chongos exist near the train station (or possibly the bus station).
Some more in another sector near the edge of the city which is supposedly not as safe.
Fichas said to be $5.

[Im Not A Freak]

i agree with civid, im in 5 day trip in cuenca, only found the area know as "los tanques", this is over a small hill near the city, this can be too tough to explain how to get there so just ride a taxi and say "llevame a los tanques", every cab ride in cuenca is only 2$ to every non-gringo.

this area has 5 casas, some of them are

chicas chicas
el trebol
el candil
el mirador

this places are the eerie version of casas found in northern quito, with a heavy [CodeWord109] smell, so are not worth your time, but this area has the rule that the entrance in every casa is free, monday through thursday.

but the casa, that is worth the time of writing this report is "el oasis", has an orange wall, and i think of it as the improved version of 4033 touch me in quito, yes is that good, the place is cleaner, every room has its own bath, the girl quality is slightly higher than 4033, (but don’t expect fallen goddess) the beers are only 1$, and the fichas only cost 6$, yes every girl is only 6$.

there are a couple of petites, that made me scream "i cant believe she’s not ****", really small petites, the only bad thing is that photos are forbidden here, but if you’re near cuenca you’ll have to check this place.

[Tungurahua]

Opebo: the thought did cross my mind, but I am unsure if the passports being 'machine readable' contain previous passport information embedded in the coding like the 'lost' passport number -- I will do some research on that. Even with a new passport number it wouldn't take much of a leap to match country, name, DOB, etc. Deny, deny, deny? hehe. A new passport is an idea to contemplate, however, on the chance it might work. And I will be needing one within a year. Thanks.

[Opebo]

Tungurahua, try getting a new passport before re-entry. I do not know your nationality, but our US passports are only around $100 - cheaper than your anticipated re-entry costs.

[Tungurahua]

I am always choked that guys do not report their findings in a new city for it leaves subsequent travelers to have to find the same information again and again and again. So after delaying for a couple months during travel here is my report on Loja (southern Ecuador) for the three travelers that may get this far in the next decade.

During the trip from Quito to Loja I noticed a recurring pattern in each small town. As Civid's findings seem to confirm each town has a casa or two (or three ...) on the outskirts. In Loja it was no different.

The word "chongos" is the magic word; if you are only going to learn one word in the Spanish language before coming to Ecuador this is it. At the bus station I simply asked a cabbie "Where are the chongos?" He said about five kilometers out of town, quoting me $3 US for the ride. Pavement quickly turns into dirt road, streetlamps disappear, past two police guards and a gate, then a sign that reads "Zona Tolerencia," down a hill and you spot five neon-lit buildings. Welcome to the Red Light Zone of Loja.

The five clubs here are named Las Vegas, Manhattan, Escorpion, California, and Imperio.

Las Vegas is the busiest. Some fifteen rooms around a square seating area. It's a smelly shithole but oh well, you're in the sticks. $1.25 large beers. 600 penny chicas. "Hmmm, which one has the cutest face and biggest breasts?" I asked myself, as they all had big asses.

I picked Kathy of Manabi province, 22 years old, been in town for a month. Started with a BJ, to missionary, she stood up on the bed for some entry here, doggie, flatdog, side of the bed with me standing. She was good at pulling her legs back for pussy exposure. Back to standing on the bed, one hand on a tittie, the other on her ass, as she did all the work and fucked me. She bent over and I plowed her from behind to cum. For fuck all nowhere it was a decent session. Tipped her $2.

There is a midget bar girl here that waddles around the club serving drinks. One day I was amused to see some teen guys bringing in one of their buddies to initiate him. It is a $4 taxi back into central Loja.

Next afternoon returned. In bar California I met slender Erika, 19, rating a 7/7.5 on the richter scale, just the way I like 'em. But she was so hammered by 7:30pm that she went to her room and passed out. Curses! I could have easily plugged 600 pennies worth of love into her wallet.

Continued on into bar Manhattan. Found Mariuxi, 28 years, from Santo Domingo, who has a single child of eight years in Lago Agrio. 600 pennies. She lit a candle for room lighting. Need I say more?

Next afternoon returned. Found and screwed 18 year young Vanessa of Loja. Cute face but otherwise a typical chunky squarish Ecua-girl. 600 pennies. Loud and obnoxious in the bar she shied right up in the sack. I figured she would. I remember thinking it was a little weird to be fucking in the mountains in daylight as I am used to the big city at night (or in dark places).

In the early evening, while parked in bar Escorpion for a beer, a girl walked in that had me interested. Jenny of Loja, 18 years old. What luck -- two 18ers in a day! Very pretty face, slender. 600 pennies. I had expectations for this one. However, stripped down her tummy was wrecked from a recent pregnancy. Rats.

Didn't realize until the end there was sixth bar just up the hill called Enigma. It is the 'high class' establishment of Loja -- $10 a chica here. A slender 8 -- the prettiest chica to be found in all six clubs -- was present but by this time I didn't have anything further to give. Headed back to Loja for a morning departure to the border.

On the bus saw yet more fuckclubs on the outskirts of passing towns, including the border town.


Leaving Ecuador

Unfortunately I don't know if I will be allowed back in to Ecuador. When I hit the border (September) the guard made it apparent to me I had overstayed my visa by some 5 days. Figures, I can calculate a five month Capital Investment Report to the penny but I can't calculate the number of days on a visa. Fuck.

The customs guard, with passports and visas operating on a computer program, said there was nothing he could do to override the system. I needed to pay $200 US to exit the country. He showed me the government pamphlets for late exits so the one-fine-price was legit, be it you are five minutes or five days or five weeks late in leaving. No way around it.

Well, turns out there was a way around it. He told me to go get the Peruvian customs guard. They talked. As I did not have $200 US cash on me at the time I just walked out of Ecuador without an exit stamp. Paid $20 to the Peruvian officer to 'look the other way' (they operate on paper, not computer), voila, into Peru I go. Which means technically I am still in Ecuador and over my visa by some 3.5 months now ... and counting.

I asked the Ecuadorian consulate here in La Paz to see if I could clear the outstanding charge up. Nope, as they don't have the frontier/customs computer program here I can only clear it up at the border. Sooo, if I ever want to return to Ecuador it could be hit and miss as to re-entry ... bring a mittfull of cash with me and see what happens.

As usual let the dice fly ...

[Civid]

In Cuenca there are about 6 places all next to each other along the same strip up on a small hill above the town. The names of the ones I remember are:

El Oasis
Los Tanques
El Candil
El Mirador

It is about a $2 to $3 taxi ride there from the center of Cuenca. I went to El Oasis as that was the one most recomended. $6 chicas and I was told by the bartender it is open from 9 am to 10 pm. There are only a few benches to sit on so most of the guys just stand in the middle of the room and the girls stand around the perimeter. The rooms have these green lights above the door that go off when you go in to the room, then when your time is up (15 minutes) they start blinking again and the the girl will tell you times up.

There were about 20 girls there when I went. I spent time with this beautiful blue eyed girl from the Manabi region.

Unfortunately I didn´t have enough time to check out the other places on this strip. I was also told that there is another place called Jorge´s in another part of Cuenca.

[Gatorman]

Yes, there is a place called Cielito, or at least there used to be. It was up on top of a hill in a poor neighborhood of Manta with dirt roads etc. Me and my friend used a taxi driver to take us and return a few hours later. I think I paid around 20 or 25 dollars, but I could have probably bargained down. But, I was a pretty inexperienced monger at the time.
Manta also had some decent looking streetwalkers that would cruise some of the outdoor cafes at night--toward the north end of town. It was a pretty mellow place and seemed like an easy place to get laid. This was about 8 years ago. Hope it is still good now.

[Civid]

There are a couple of places in Manta. I made a visit to El Puente as I was told it was the best. It is about a $4 taxi ride out to it from center of Manta. It is out past the airport. There are several other clubs along the same strip. The ones I remember the names of are (but there are a couple of others):

El Puente
Night Club Amadeus
El Imperio

El Puente is open from 10 am to 11 pm. Chicas are $6. They have a strip show every hour. There were about 15 chicas there when I visited around 5:30 pm. About 70 guys. The chicas all stand in front of their doors while the guys all sit at tables in the middle. I was disappointed about this set up as I like to sit with a chica and talk to her a bit. But....I had a really nice and sexy chica there. Katrina from Quevido, 22 years old. Beautiful chica.

There are also a couple of places on the road out toward Montecristi - Strip Tease and Dreams.

So that is the update on Manta.

I was told by one taxi driver in Manta that there is a chongo (brothel) in Puerto Lopez. I thought the town too small to have one so I never asked when I was there. Lesson learned...never assume and always ask. So if anyone makes to Puerto Lopez it is worth asking a Mototaxi to take you there.

I will be in Ecuador on Oct 17. I would like to take a bus trip to Manta from Quito, but would like some more information about mongering and regular tourist stuff.

I read that there is a USAF base there now, so I would imagine that there must be some new casas around.

How is the area of Tarqui to stay at a hotel compared to Manta proper?

Any information would be helpful.

Well, as you can see, there really is no information here about Manta, not even a thread for the city! So when/if you go, you have to let us know how the action is there. The only info I have is what an Ecuadorian monger told me one day when I was in Guajira; he mentioned that there were a few places on the outskirts of Manta, he rattled off a few names, one of them was El Cielo or Cielito, didn't write it down though, sorry. He claimed you could get chicas for $5 there (that's right, five US dollars), this info is just hearsay though, since I've never been there. Doombringer also mentioned that a strip club opened up there earlier this year.

I'd like to go back to Ecuador next year, but to spend some time in the cities on the coast, so any info you could report on would be appreciated!

[Tuna Man]

I tried to post here before, but it did not show up, so here goes again.

I will be in Ecuador from 10/17=11/1. I will mainly be in Quito, but would also like to take a bus trip to Manta for a day or two.

I would like ANY information on Manta or Tarqui that I can. Even on the mainstream travel sites information about hotels and local sights are very lacking.

I read that there is a USAF base near Manta now, so I would assume there should be some chongos and clubs around to help these guys spend their money.

Any information will be appreciated.

[Siempre Adelante]

I am wondering if Santo Domingo de Los Colorados is still worth a visit. I had a pretty good time there in June and contemplating a return visit. I am in Iquitos, Peru now and the action in the chongos is pretty lame. Best action is through introductions from moto drivers or friends. It´s not the same freewheeling pro scene like S.D. de Los Colorados. Just wondering if SDLC is still worth a visit.
S.A.

[Polvo]

Is there any action in Puerto Ayora on Galapagos?

They haven't evolved that far!

Polvo.

[Andy S]

Is there any action in Puerto Ayora on Galapagos?

[Im Not A Freak]

There two famous places there, Los Tanques and El Oasis, only heard of them, dont know the exact location.
