We spent another wonderful day with Alejandro, owner of Luna Tours and Hiking. This was our 2nd time booking with him, and as before, our experience was exceptional. If you are looking for a small group, intimate tour, Alejandro and his company can't be beat.
We had such a great experience with Alejandro, while visiting Nayarit! We actually ended up using his services twice during our trip, which says a lot about how much we enjoyed having him as our guide. He was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. He knew so much about the area and took us to places we probably never would have discovered on our own, which made our trip feel even more special. You can tell he genuinely cares about giving his guests a great experience, and we really appreciated how easy and enjoyable he made both of our days with him. If you’re visiting Nayarit or Puerto Vallarta and looking for someone reliable, knowledgeable, and professional, I would highly recommend him. We’ll definitely be reaching out again the next time we’re in the area!
We had an amazing private tour! Everything was well organized, and the experience was unforgettable. Alejandro was an outstanding guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire tour enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you have Alejandro as your guide!
Alejandro was an exceptional guide. He was well-versed in local customs and culture. He pulled over along the trip when he saw a chance for us to get a glimpse into daily life in the area. Though we have been to Puerto Vallarta many times, We learned a great deal during our tour. If you are looking for a rich cultural experience in a private tour, this is the one for you! Thank you so much, Alejandro. We really appreciated our experience.
Alejandro was just wonderful! He customized our tour to our gay friends interests! We come to Puerto Vallarta annually and they had never been before. We had a wonderful day. Alejandro’s English was excellent. His knowledge of Mexican and local history was superb. He will absolutely customize your tour!
Alejandro was a great guide. I really liked that he knew his way around the towns and the area. He knew more than just San Pancho and Sayulita. He knew the area and other parts of Mexico. I got really good travel tips and advice. I saw beautiful murals and I learned so much about the Wixárika natives and traditional customs. Mary's is THE PLACE for lunch in Sayulita and Mexicolate is amazing chocolate for the end of the tour. I can't recommend this enough! Thank you Alejandro!
Alejandro gave us an absolutely incredible tour from start to finish. He began by taking the time to understand exactly what we wanted from our day, then thoughtfully customized an experience that turned out to be truly unforgettable. We explored charming local towns, experienced their warm hospitality, and enjoyed delicious local cuisine—all while taking in stunning beach views along the way. Thank you for the best day excursion we’ve ever had!

Alex was amazing! He was very knowledgeable, friendly and helped us have the best time. We went beyond the tourist go- spots to experience how people live in the region. This was the best tour I have been on, and exceeded my expectations. I will definitely book with him again on one of his other tour offerings. Alex went above and beyond.
Alex was amazing! So friendly, informative and gracious. He is a local and really knows his way around. Took us to some beautiful spots, ate wonderful food and dropped us off tired. Great way to spend our day in Puerto Vallarta!
