SO Amazing!

Absolutely amazing! We would recommend this to anyone, and would absolutely do it again ourselves. Thalia was so knowledgeable, had everyone’s experience in mind the whole time, and took great care of everyone. We had a group with 3 small kids and she was so attentive and thoughtful. She and the captain, Angel, were what put the tour over the top. We were so impressed. We saw some amazing fish and dolphins in the bay on our way to Los Arcos. If you’re considering this, go for it, you won’t be disappointed.

Great experience

We really enjoyed our snorkeling tour. The guide was knowledgeable about different sea species and helped us find good locations and views of fish while snorkeling. It was safe, instructions were good, and a trip was entertaining. Highly recommend.

A Must For Snorkeling at Los Arcos!!!!

Thalia’s expertise as a marine biologist was amazing- she was helpful and taught us a lot and has that ecological and nature-based background. A true extra touch was the video she took and offered to send to us along with taking a photo of her laminated sheet of what we (likely) saw. Angel was the captain- he was very nice. Their rapport was amazing. The boat was the perfect size and the small group was fantastic. They also run their own company- Vallarta Natours- and that experience showed!!!

Unique and fun experience

We were so thankful we booked a small group snorkeling tour with Thalia. We beat the crowds and got to soak up so much knowledge from our expert guide.

Wonderful snorkeling tour

I really enjoyed this tour in Los Arcos. Comfortable boat ride with its captain Angel. Very knowledgeable tour guide Thalia, happy to answer any questions. We spent plenty of time snorkeling and got to see a lot of beautiful fish. If I ever do another tour in Puerto Vallarta, Vallarta Natours would be my first choice.

So fun!

This trip was great! On our way we saw some dolphin, and turtles as well as some sting rays. Our biologist explained everything that we might see and how to swim with the currents to prevent us from touching the rocks. She was able to answer all my fish questions and made the trip so enjoyable. I will 100% be booking here again.
