What are people saying about Puerto Vallarta

Janeane_M, Aug 2026

Fantastic!!

From the very start to the very end they kept us highly entertained. This it literally the best show you will ever see! It’s the biggest highlight of our entire trip. The show has so many extremely talented performers! The ambiance and design of everything was just amazing! I’m so glad we did this!Thanks for the wonderful memory❤️

Boat and Snorkel Tour to 5 Islands of Los Arcos

Jessica_H, Aug 2026

Highly recommend👍

Thank you to our guide, Bruno! He was very nice and funny, and he helped us take some great photos on the boat. He also carefully introduced each island to us. During the snorkeling experience, he showed us where we could find more fish and stayed nearby the entire time to assist us. We really enjoyed the snorkeling experience. The whole experience felt very safe, and we had plenty of time to snorkel. We saw so many fish! The price was great, and we would definitely do this experience again. I recommend bringing your own towel and water. The only small downside is that you need to take a local bus to and from the beach because it is located in a more remote area. However, Bruno was amazing and clearly explained how to take the bus and where to get off. For the return trip, I would recommend taking an Uber. An Uber from the beach to the port costs around $10 and is much more comfortable. That said, taking the local bus is also a pretty unique experience!

ATV and RZR Jorullo Bridge Experience in Puerto Vallarta

Susan_G, Aug 2026

3rd time going this experience. Never disappointed

This is the 3rd time we have done this experience and without a doubt it has always been amazing, fun and we love it. My husband, son and his girlfriend 19yrs loved it too. We did ATVs but have previously done razors also. Never a disappointment. Miguel, Romero and all of the staff were amazing and we always give a cash tip at the end. The waterfall stop is great. The bar and look out is amazing and the bridge is phenompenal.

Xtreme travels was great

Amazing Experience with Arnold the boat driver an guide Pablo. Both were a great team. Pablo was knowledgable and took great care to give us the infprmation on this tour. They had a great travel plan to reach the island and even made sure their van left us back to our destination.

Sunset Boat Tour & Bioluminescence Adventure at Los Arcos Islands

Joshua_B, Aug 2026

Must Do Experience!!

Me and my wife were really impressed with this excursion and it exceeded all our expectations. We started the trip by meeting Bruno and Diego for the bus ride. The bus ride was around 30 minutes to Mismaloya. We got a free drink there and boarded our boats. We had Diego as a guide, and was amazing and very knowledgeable about the different birds, history and Los Arcos. We were able to go through one one the arches with the boat. We headed to a quiet secured beach where we swam for 20 minutes while the sun went down. Amazing sunset. We headed back to the same arch where we snorkeled and saw the bioluminescence beneath the water. We got back on the boat and headed back to Puerto Vallarta. I would highly recommend this excursion, and we definitely would do it again.

Mega Catamarans ALL INCLUSIVE Remote Paradise Beach Adventure

An Unforgettable Day with Ricky and His Amazing Crew

What an awesome adventure! This was one of those experiences that exceeded our expectations from start to finish. From the beautiful catamaran ride to the private beach, remote village, and secluded waterfall, every part of the day felt special. What truly made the experience unforgettable was Ricky and his team. They took incredible care of our group, which included both adults and children, making sure everyone felt comfortable, safe, and included throughout the day. Ricky's energy, enthusiasm, and attention to detail made all the difference. The food was fantastic, the drinks were flowing, and the entire experience was fun, relaxing, and full of great memories. We laughed, explored, and enjoyed every minute of it. It was an absolute blast, and we would do it again in a heartbeat. If you're considering this excursion, ask for Ricky—you won't be disappointed!

Puerto Vallarta Luxury Yacht Tour: Snorkeling, Open Bar and Lunch

Kayleen_H, Jul 2026

Must Do Boat Adventure

We had incredible time on this tour. Victor and his crew were so friendly and professional. The boat was super clean and nice. The food and snacks were delicious and we loved the open bar. We did not feel crowded on the boat with the other guests and felt right at home. We were able to leisurely coast to private beach, snorkel, swim, and explore. Then we enjoyed a great lunch with more cocktails before heading back slowing hugging the coast. Since the seas were calm, we were able to get super close to Los Arcos for some pictures and enjoy the scenery. I highly recommend Vallarta Adventures/Victor and his crew!

Private ATV tour with waterfall and Tequila tasting

Eden_P, Jun 2026

Great experience! Sergio...

Great experience! Sergio was an amazing guide who took care of us throughout the ATV ride. It was just under 2 hours of ATV riding and then about 20 minutes at the tequila tasting and another 40 minutes of stop at the restaurant for food and refreshments, where you also have the option to take a quick swim. Thank you Sergio!

Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas

Michael_W, Jun 2026

10 out of 10 would ALWAYS recommend

Martin made the whole experience absolutely amazing. He took the time to explain the different plants and processes for each tequila. The tasting was fantastic. The horses love him and were so happy to follow him. We did a couple river crossings, but due to the rain the water was a little more rapid and dirty so we didn’t swim, but it didn’t hurt the experience at all. The hotel where the tasting and lunch were served was straight out of a movie. You’re surrounded by lush mountains on each side.. it’s beautiful, quiet, and the people who worked there were amazing as well. This is a trip I would do again and again. Highly recommend

ATV Tour Rio Cuale Sierra Madre Mountains and tequila tasting

Daniel_A, Apr 2026

Fun & Compltely Worth It!

We absolutely loved our time spent riding ATVs with Angel. He was a great guide who took us along a fun route which led us along city streets, and eventually into the jungle and the mountains. We stopped and did a tequila tasting, and had lunch at a delicious restaurant with the option for a refreshing swim in a natural watering hole. It was pretty easy to get the hang of driving the ATV too which was an initial concern of mine. Our ride was the perfect length, definitely felt like we got our money’s worth. Tip, the fewer bags and items you bring the better as there isnt really much room to store things on the ATV. Lastly, bring sunscreen, you’ll be in the sun a lot and will need to reapply.

Cirque du Soleil LUDÕ — Vallarta

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.

Puerto Vallarta Las Caletas, Adventure Park & Lunch with Open Bar

Lindsi_B, Jan 2026

Amazing family beach excursion

Vegan families - this one is for you! We saw whales and dolphins on the boat… when we arrived at las caletas there were tacos with black beans and veggies. Tons of beach spots to chill on hammocks and nooks. For lunch a great salad with nuts and veggies, more refried black beans and chips. Lots of bars everywhere, I recommend the strawberry margarita, best I’ve had in Mexico. They don’t provide towels but you don’t really need one because there’s lots of seating available. Towel would just be a nice to have as a bonus. My only complaint is the photographer. We just liked 1 of the photos and wanted to just buy 1 digital photo that could be emailed to us. She refused and said we must buy the whole package or nothing… why not make some money instead of $0? That was a temporary bummer feeling, but the rest of the staff was great. Recommend just taking your own photos because they wouldn’t sell individual ones.
