What are people saying about Puerto Vallarta

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!

Exceeded Expectations!

Be sure to skip breakfast before you start the tour… as you will not finish this tour hungry! There were so many amazing opportunities to taste authentic Mexican tacos and much, much more. This tour exceeded our expectations as well as did our tour guide, Joanna. Joanna was very knowledgeable about everything to do with Puerto Vallarta and balanced the tasting part of the tour with just enough history. She was attentive and sensitive to everyone’s dietary needs. Kudos to an excellent experience and… Muchos Gracias!!

Dinner at sunset was very romantic and show was AMAZING!!!! Lastly boat ride back was so much fun and entertaining🎶 Highly recommended

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.

Boat and Snorkel Tour to 5 Islands of Los Arcos

Evelina_S, Apr 2026

Had a great time!!

This was a very fun adventure. Our guide Diego was great, very friendly and informative and made sure we were taken good care of the entire time. It was neat to see the town of Mismaloya and all the protected birds on Los Arcos. The water was warm which was nice and made it easy to get in and swim around. Due to algae conditions that day the ocean was a little murky so we did get to see different types of fish swimming right under us but perhaps not as many as we would have liked. My boyfriend had a little trouble with the snorkel mask so if you want you can always bring your own if you like which I did and had no issues. We got time after that snorkeling to relax and the beach and have some drinks which was really nice as well. Would definitely recommend this trip. It was really nice that it was a small group and not overcrowded too. We had a great time overall and would definitely recommend!

Adrianne_J, Apr 2026

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. They explained everything clearly, pointed out things we definitely would’ve missed on our own, and made the whole tour feel both fun and safe.

JOSE_L, Apr 2026

Magical experience

Awesome experience, 3 hours ride into the beautiful beaches of Puerto Vallarta, beautiful night view to the city and to watch the bioluminescence on a dark night full of stars. The guides are so fun and friendly, and if you love to swim on deep waters this is your chance to experience such of magical moment. Definitely recommend.

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.

Mega Catamarans ALL INCLUSIVE Remote Paradise Beach Adventure

Jackie_K, Apr 2026

Amazing way to see the...

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.

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.

Las Caletas Beach & Adventure Park with buffet lunch and 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.

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.
