Great excursion in Mazatlan!!!

It is a great way to see Mazatlan. Alberto and Felipe were our drivers and they were a lot of fun. They drove us everywhere. We saw the Clift Divers, went to where you could hike to see the lighthouse, shopping and we stopped for ice cream and went to London street and took pictures with the Beatles. It was so much fun and we learned a lot. I highly recommend this excursion to everyone. .

Pulmonia tours are a great way to see the city of Mazatlan. The driver was very knowledgeable about the area and history of Mazatlan.

Umberto was awesome!

The City Tour with the Pulmonia open-air taxi was awesome! Umberto was our guide and he was amazing! He took his time with us, his English was very good, he answered all our questions, and bought us cold refreshments along our ride! My husband chose a Pacifico, and I got a yummy coffee drink. We really got a knowledgeable grasp of the city. I think the highlight was the cliff divers! This is a must do with the guide Umberto! Gracias!

Disappointed and taken advantage of

I do not recommend this tour. The driver never arrived to pick us up. I messaged the driver multiple times along with attempting to call the phone number provided. The call was never accepted and there was never a response to any of the messages from sent.

Fun Mazatlan Pulmonia Tour

Our Pulmonia tour with Daniel was great. He was very friendly, drove us to all of the tour highlights and stopped at several places based on our preference, to view the sights and take pictures. He did not make us feel rushed and was happy to take pictures of all of us.

Saw it all!

Moises was super accommodating- stopped whenever and wherever we asked! He was also a fabulous photographer! We have loads of pics to sort through to find our best shots, lol! Very friendly, shared lots of history and Mazatlan lore and even went through the Dairy Queen drive-thru so we could get Blizzards for the ride home! Picked up and dropped off right at our condo! We saw the lighthouse, marina, downtown, Golden Zone, Plaza Machado, Plaza Republico and the Cathedral. Super fun outing that gave us a good overview of Mazatlan!

Really fun tour.

Daniel Flores was our guide and did a great job on this tour. So much fun riding around in the open air vehicle. He took us to some important sites but also took us off the beaten track. Made us want to return for another visit.
