This is not a typical tour. While most experiences focus on beaches and popular spots, this journey takes you into the heart of everyday life in the Valley — where traditions are still part of daily routines and nothing is staged for tourists. You won’t just visit places… you’ll understand them. From sharing a real local breakfast to walking through historic towns, tasting traditional drinks like tejuino, and meeting local artisans, every stop is designed to connect you with the culture in a genuine way. The landscapes, the flavors, and the rhythm of life here are completely different from what you see in tourist areas. This is the side of Mexico that many travelers never get to experience — quiet, authentic, and deeply rooted in tradition. And because it’s a private experience, everything moves at your pace, creating a more personal and meaningful connection. If you’re looking to go beyond the surface and truly experience local life… this is it.

Incredible experience...

Incredible experience from start to finish. Our guide was not only super friendly and easygoing, but genuinely extremely knowledgeable you could definitely tell they really cared about the ocean and making sure everyone had a great time.

So fun!

Rating is based on the excursion itself, not the transpiration to/from. We loved riding ATVs through the hills and over the bridges. Jonny and Luis were amazing guides and kept us very safe. Jonny was very helpful and caring of our experience. Be prepared to ride in an open air truck back to your drop off location.

Nice Break from the Cruise Line Crods

The public bus ride is a bit rough, and even though the description says you will stop at a historic site in the city, that didn’t happen. On the plus side, the boat ride was smooth, Andra’s our guide was very informative and he took great care of us the snorkeling gear was great, and they helped Us with getting situated. The snorkeling was good, not a lot of fish, but it was a nice 3 hour trip that was a great value. Ate at a small outdoor pool lace with tables in the sand, nice change of pace from the crowded city

Amazing way to see the area. Wildlife and culture. Taken care of from minute one. Bring cash for atv and the cute bar at the waterfall. Accessibility is good but some short hike to ATVs if you are going to the waterfall. Great fish spotted and the boat ride we saw dolphins.

Puerto Vallarta's Best Canopy Zipline + Jorullo Bridge walk!

Kaylee_K, Mar 2026

Best cruise excursion

The hike was beautiful and fun. The ziplining was exciting! There were multiple water stops along the way. My 8 year year and 12 year old loved it. Then we ate at the restaurant and swam in the pool after. It was refreshing. Thanks for the amazing day and fun memories while we stopped off for our cruise!

Cirque du Soleil LUDÕ — New Nayarit

Shawn_C, Mar 2026

Amazing show

The show was fantastic. Highly recommend. I was really surprised and disappointed that we booked 7 tickets as a group and then when we showed up they were in two distant groups of 4 and 3. Fortunately the people at the event helped us- but it makes me question whether I would book through Viator ever again.

Private ATV tour with waterfall and Tequila tasting

William_P, Jan 2026

ATV's foster togetherness!

We bought this experience for our son and his wife for Christmas. They rode on one ATV together since his wife had never been on one before. They had a great time and would highly recommend it to others. My daughter-in-law said she liked holding on to my son and riding with him rather then beside him on her own ATV.
