Our guide Dani and our boat captain Ricardo were the best. We were supposed to be a group of 5, but the other 3 people never showed up so my wife and I basically had a private tour. Dani and Ricardo were very friendly and they did an awesome job of taking care of us at every part of the trip. It was the highlight of our stay thanks to them and we would absolutely do it again. Next time we’re bringing our whole family and asking for Dani and Ricardo.
If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable experience in Puerto Vallarta, this is the tour to book. We wanted something beyond the typical tourist excursion, and this exceeded every expectation. From snorkeling in beautiful, crystal-clear water to exploring hidden spots you would never find on your own, every part of the day felt like an adventure. What really made the experience exceptional was our guide. He was incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, and passionate about the area. The entire day had such a local, off-the-beaten-path feel, which is exactly what we were hoping for. We never felt rushed, and every stop felt unique and special. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I would recommend this tour without hesitation to anyone visiting Puerto Vallarta who wants an authentic adventure and memories they’ll never forget.
We had an incredible five-hour boat tour with Gabriel—easily a five-star experience. From start to finish, he was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely great to be around. His English and Spanish are both excellent, which made everything smooth and easy. We went snorkeling and he pointed out all kinds of small sea creatures we never would have noticed on our own. He really knows his stuff. The tour included boating, beaches, and even a stop at a beautiful waterfall. It felt like the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. Gabriel is down-to-earth, pleasant, and clearly cares about giving people a great experience. You can tell he’s a family-oriented, good person who takes pride in what he does. Honestly, we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend—if you’re considering this tour, you’d be wise to choose it.
Absolutely worth going with tour guide Alexis. What an amazing human being. We feel grateful and blessed to have gone- He is kind, knowledgeable about the area, and made the day so special for us. We saw a variety of wild life and swam in the most beautiful waterfall. Made us feel safe and taken care of the entire time.
We had the most amazing experience! Ivan was our guide and he was so much fun, very professional and knowledgeable. It was the perfect day!!
A very pleasant experience, the guide and the captain very attentive supported us at all times, highly recommended.
Excellent patient personal service and. Friendly excellent tour of the best I highly recommend to come with family friends
Jason from Mismaloya Xtreme was fantastic to deal with. We met him on the beach our second day of our trip. We wanted to take a boat ride out to the los Arcos and do some snorkeling he provided us a very reasonable price for an hour and a half and also instead of taking us out that day he recommended that we wait a couple of days and the ocean would be a lot calmer and it would be a better experience. We appreciated the fact that he wasn't out to get money from us but to provide us a memorable experience for our family. He didn't disappoint. We enjoyed it so much we messaged Jason on our second to last day of our trip and asked him if he had any other excursions he could recommend and he took my family of four on a boat tour further south of Mismoloya and showed us some of the smaller private beaches only accessible by boat and gave us great information about the area and it's history. He took us to a small village where we were greeted by his team and they gave us an atv ride up to the waterfall where my kids and I got to enjoy swimming and taking in all the scenery that this little gem of a place had to offer. We got a tour of the village on the way back on the atvs and we finished off by Jason taking us to another small community on a different beach where we had one of the best tacos we've ever had. Jason is hands down the best tour guide we've ever had and whether you're staying in PV or closer to Mismoloya, you will not be disappointed by him or his team in delivering an experience that you and your family will remember forever.
I don’t even know where to start, from hiking to a water fall, seeing dolphins, whales, and the history/agriculture we learned on this trip I would give 10 stars if I could. Jason is very bilingual so asking questions and getting information was easy, which is a plus since my Spanish is rusty. He taught us about where to cliff jump, where to eat, and how to be overall safe and have an amazing time! I will be coming back to see you guys! Thanks so much Jason, and carlos! Gracias! 💕
Jason and Carlos were such great guides. They made the day with their personal stories and fun facts about the area. Jason was so knowledgeable about the area took great care of us on our adventure. The trip was totally personalized to what we wanted and for a great price!!!! Would use Jason and his company for every water adventure.
