What are people saying about Puerto Vallarta

Dawn_M, Jun 2026

Taco Lovers - Don’t Skip This One

Sylvia was so enthusiastic and fun. She shared so much of her culture with us. The food was delicious, and her salsa and food pairings were spot on. It was such a lovely way to spend a few hours. We have been on many food tours, and this one ranks at the top for sure.

Boat and Snorkel Tour to 5 Islands of Los Arcos

Vanessa_T, Jun 2026

Good snorkeling, no fluff

The tour rep made it easy to meetup at misomiloya beach location for us who were staying south of the boardwalk. The snorkeling was simple and just was my 16yr and I was looking for, thankfully. My teen was happy getting straight into activity without the fluff. I really enjoyed the tour. Our guide Andreas, showed us the reef and fish and was helpful.

Private ATV tour with waterfall and Tequila tasting

Jeffrey_G, May 2026

From start to finish this...

From start to finish this was a great little tour. Expect about 3 hours. 2 hours of those driving the atv. The office was easy to find and clean. There are small lockers for a backpack or other small things you need. We went during the dry season so it was very dusty so wear clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty. They provide you with a helmet goggles and bandanna for your face. The guides were knowledgeable and fun. They took plenty of pics for us (which you can purchase at the end). We did stop twice, once in the mountain for a tequila tasting and again at a little Restaurant where the river runs. It was the dry season so we didn’t expect there to be a huge flowing river but was still a nice stop for a drink and a snack/ lunch. I’d definitely book this again maybe in the rainy season and get more muddy haha

Mega Catamarans ALL INCLUSIVE Remote Paradise Beach Adventure

Staci_P, May 2026

All day party - music, dancing, drinks!

This was a fun party the whole day! Crew was super attentive and kind, David was terrific at engaging with the passengers. All of them were fun and we had a great day. Fun music and dancing from the moment we left the pier. The beach was fun and they accommodated us with all that we asked. The ATV ride to the waterfall was very fun. Highly recommend will do again next time we are here.

Horseback Riding & Swim: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas

Alejandra_S, May 2026

Hands down, BEST tour!

SOO worth it, just book it…. What an experience!! We had so much fun riding the horses through different terrains- we had a tequila tasting, made our own salsa & enjoyed a delicious lunch poolside. Our first time on a horse & we felt very safe being matched & guided. Couldn’t recommend this excursion anymore!!! Make sure to bring shoes you don’t mind getting wet + a bandana to cover your face from dust other than that just be ready for an adventure. Thank you again for such a beautiful experience

Marietas Islands National Park: Full Day ALL INCLUSIVE Tour

jacqueline_c, May 2026

Amazing day trip. Went beyond our expectations

My husband and I went after our wedding in Sayulita! It was amazing. Perfect mixture of relaxing, fun, and adventure! We had enough space on the boat to enjoy each other. The staff was insanely helpful and was always ready to serve us. The islands were breathtaking and having a photographer on board let us unwind without needing our phones. We bought the photos for $40 -- they are so good!

Luxury Yacht & Snorkel with All inclusive Open bar and lunch

Lynsey_R, Apr 2026

Absolutely would do this again

This was even better than expected! Victor and his crew were super friendly and helpful. The yacht was a catamaran and was very nice/well maintained. The drinks and food were delicious and easily obtained. The other people on the boat with us were great, it was a small group which is perfect. We snorkeled and lounged at beaches, 10/10. Highly recommend, it’s a great price for everything that’s included.

Amazing!

This experience was amazing! Swimming in the blue microorganisms was straight out of an avatar movie! Learning about the different species of birds. Highly recommend. Our guide Diego was spectacular. Very informative, friendly, and ensured we had a great time! The Captain Anthony was also great! He took us through one of the caves in the boat, ensured we had safe ocean transport!

ATV and RZR Jorullo Bridge Experience in Puerto Vallarta

Brittanie_R, Apr 2026

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.

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.

Half Day Private Sailing Cruise Puerto Vallarta with Snorkeling

Stephen_G, Mar 2026

Great sea day. Dolphins were a bonus.

We loved our day. Boat was a good size and well equipped. Captain and crew were extremely nice and very friendly. Stopped when we passed some dolphins swimming nearby who came up to swim by the boat... amazing! We stopped near a small beach for a swim....was beautiful. Lunch was really tasty. Overall, a fantastic trip. I will book again if I am back in Puerto Vallarta
