What a fantastic experience this was! We were in Puerto Vallarta via a cruise ship and wanted to do a local cooking experience while in port instead of a cruise excursion. Before the tour started, Jeanne, our tour guide, was excellent at communicating and making sure we didn't have any dietary restrictions and giving us instructions on how to get to the meeting point. Jeanne is an amazing and patient guide! She readily answered all our questions and was so enthusiastic about everywhere we went! You can tell she really loves her city. She gave us a brief tour of the town, which happened to have Dias de los Muertos decorations up and explained the cultural significance. We were then led to a local tortilleria and learned about the tortilla-making progress and ate some freshly made tortillas, a small coffee shop to taste Mexican coffee, and then had a tour through the local fish and produce street market where we learned about all the different ingredients. Jeanne is very knowledgable! Afterwards, we had a cooking lesson at a restaurant where the head chef personally taught us how to make guacamole, enchiladas, use a tortilla press, and 2 different cocktails. We were also served some very delicious salsa. At this restaurant, we also had a delightful blind tasting test of around 14 different items that Jeanne had picked up from the market. I won't spoil what those were, it was definitely fun time guessing what some of the ingredients could be. I highly recommend Authentik Tours with Jeanne. After our tour, she gave us some recommendations on what else we could see nearby before we had to head back to our ship. We also really liked that she helped us take photos and videos and sent them to us, so we could enjoy our trip more easily. We'll definitely be looking to do other tours with Authentik Tours again in the future next time we're in the area!

We had a lovely time with Jeanne. She is kind, knowledgeable and incredibly friendly. She took us on a tour of the market, educated us on the culture and background of the area and then we had a great lunch that we helped prepare and a fun blind tasting of different foods.

Authentic, Fun, and Delicious Experience! This tour was absolutely excellent from start to finish. Our host, Aldo, was incredibly informative and made the entire experience engaging and educational. The visit to the local market was vibrant and full of color, giving us a great introduction to traditional Mexican ingredients and culture. One of the highlights was the blind tasting—it really awakened our senses! After the market, we headed to Boxabeel for the cooking portion, which was such a beautiful and welcoming space. Esmeralda and her team were fantastic—super friendly, organized, and passionate about sharing their culinary knowledge. The hands-on cooking class was both fun and interactive, and the raicilla cocktail workshop was a great way to end the day. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable food experience in Puerto Vallarta!
