Things to do in  Puerto Vallarta

Helpful & friendly staff. Had to take cab but they reimbursed you. Great way to see Puerto vallarta.

Awesome private tour! Was great to see more of Puerto Vallarta and be in the hills! Had so much fun!!

This was a fantastic excursion! My wife and I vist various hot springs almost monthly and were pleased to enjoy one here on our first trip to Puerto Vallarta. Food and massssge was wonderful, Antonio and Chavita were great!

Gio was a fantastic guide. We got to see a ton of places in Puerto Vallarta that we would have never seen on our own. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to learn more about the area and what it has to offer.

The snorkeling was the best in Puerto Vallarta that I’ve seen. The staff was fantastic. Was saw lots of whales and Dolphins. Nice beach and activities. The one thing that could have made it better is if the music wasn’t so loud.

Awesome food and tequila tour in downtown Puerto Vallarta! Our tour guide Gio was so friendly and knowledgeable. The food and drink on the tour was amazing and well worth the money! Great way to see downtown and to try the local food! Highly recommend!!!!

This tour is a great way to experience the array of flavors in this beautiful town. Our tour guide Gio was full of knowledge on the food, the restaurant and history of Puerto Vallarta. You will walk away with a full stomach and a list of restaurants you want to visit on your next trip.

What an amazing experience. I'd give it 6 stars out of 5 if I could. Our tour guide Sergio was excellent. The horses where very tame, and the crew took great care of the group while we rode along the country side to the water fall. The water fall was beautiful. Once we returned to the ranch, we where treated like family. Everyone made some fresh salsa. We did a little Tequila tasting. The drinks where good. The hand made tortillas where excellent. And the food and meat had such a great fresh taste to it. We look forward to doing this trip again on our next trip to Puerto Vallarta.

We booked this trip based on excellent reviews. Cervando was great to show us around the city. He was very willing to modify our experience and felt we had a good opportunity to see all over Puerto Vallarta. Appreciated he gave a good balance of taking us places and explained history of area. We had time also to wander around as well. I highly recommend this tour and Cervando is a genuinely nice guy.

I am a well Seasoned traveler and have been on many tours and excursions. My tour with Bernardo on the 8 Passenger Puerto Vallarta City Tour was excellent. I was with my family of five including my 85 year old Mom. Our hotel was a little way out of the Puerto Vallarta area, but we knew we wanted to see the all of the special sites. Wow, did we get our money's worth. Bernardo is an amazing person and speak perfect English. So friendly and so knowledgeable. He has been in this business for over 26 years and can answer all or any questions. I like the fact that it is private because we could go where we wanted to go or stay at one place longer or shorter. He took us up into the mountains for the most fabulous lunch. It was our first time in Puerto Vallarta and I feel like I saw everything that was important and places I would definitely return to. Not to mention the kindness of Bernardo from anything to bathroom stops to helping my mom get off the bus to showing us the most beautiful places to take pictures. You can not go wrong with this tour. Much better than a tour with 20 to 30 people on a bus with no flexibility touring Puerto Vallarta. I hope anyone that reads this review will take the time to book a tour with Bernardo. You can find him on TripAdvisor or Viator Tours. You will find his advertisement showing a guy with a floral shirt standing in front of a white van. You definitely will not be disappointed. Thank you, Sharon, John, Wilma, Bob & Brenda.

We were well taken care of. We got to go the market and pick vegetables and fruits to eat and Antonio bbq them. The hot springs had many families there listening to loud happy music and putting on facial masks. Smiles was on everyone’s face soaking up the sun and enjoying the springs with friends and family. The drive to the ocean had sites of villages with cattle and agriculture. Nice to see the different crops. The ocean was relaxing with the messages. ThIs was a wonderful adventure to see outside of Puerto Vallarta.

My husband and I had wanted to do a whale watching tour for many years. When we were planning or trip to Puerto Vallarta, we found your advertisement online. I thought that a 4+ hour tour in a warm water environment with a marine biologist onboard was a perfect way to see whales. It definitely was! Kristina and the boat's driver were fantastic! Her knowledge and experience shined. We saw many whales including some that breached very close to the boat . As an added bonus, we saw a sea turtle and speckled dolphins. Our experience was magical. THANK YOU for a wonderful experience Wild Life Connection!

I can’t say enough about this tour. It went beyond anything I expected and will be unforgettable. If you are looking to learn about whales ( and many ocean animals) and see them up close, choose this tour. If you are looking for a day on a large boat with food and an open bar this is not for you. Our guide , Christina , has been researching whales for some time now and she was able to give in-depth information about how these majestic creatures live. But the best part was being in a small unassuming boat which the whales felt comfortable coming up close to and allowing us to see them breach, slap their tails, wave their fins,. They put on quite a show for us and only at about a car’s length away. Whenever a larger whale watching boat tour appeared the whales would take off and those tourists were unable to take in the awe of seeing these whale up close. We saw mothers and babies as well. I wholly recommend this tour with a guide like Christina to really make your visit to Puerto Vallarta a memorable one.

We told Cervando that we wanted to focus on local history and culture not just tourist attractions. He totally got it and we spent the day activity visiting everything from Elizabeth Taylor's house to his own neighbor. Conversation covered the gambit of life growing up and living in Puerto Vallarta. He is a genuinely nice person who clearly enjoys his community, job and family. We would highly recommend Cervando.

This was an INCREDIBLE experience! Without a doubt the best way to fully appreciate Puerto Vallarta’s beautiful coastline. Our guide Ever was great and spoke perfect English. If you’re debating between a single or double rider I’d recommend single (our passengers in the back said it was hard to hang on at times) and don’t forget a waterproof phone holder to take pictures!!

We were a group of 10 wanting to get a more authentic experience exploring the city. We got that and more. Luis was our tour guide and we would recommend him one million times over. Luis not only had expert knowledge about each area we visited, but he really engaged with our archeological, cultural, and historical questions in a thoughtful way. He was so kind and incredibly funny. He even waited for us while we stopped to buy some souvenirs and gave us tips about which stands to visit. Our family had an amazing time. If you're in Puerto Vallarta and want to get to know the area, this is a must do! And ask for Luis, You won't regret your experience!

Seeing the hidden beach was on my list of things to do in Puerto Vallarta for several years, and this year I finally managed to fit it in. Sadly, you are now only allowed 1/2 hour to visit this protected area - including the time to swim back and forth from your boat to the beach. Was it still a good experience? Yes, I thought so. It’s one of those places only a few people get to see in the world, so make sure to bring a waterproof camera along, or place it in a dry bag. The snorkeling was also nice, and the crew was great.

We had a wonderful time learning about Puerto Vallarta. The air conditioned van was a great way to see the area. Bernardo was very knowledgeable, pleasant and accommodating. Highly recommend… especially for first time visitors like us.

Horses...jungle...river...waterfalls...cooking lessons...incredible food...barreled tequila...mountain coffee from the region...and wonderful guides. This was the best excursion we have had in Puerto Vallarta with wonderful memories!

We loved all the stops it made, we got to see so much for such an amazing price. It was so much value! We got to see how chocolate is made, coffee, botanicals, tequila & a incredible lunch all up in the mountains of Puerto Vallarta!
