Totally worth it!
The tour was amazing! I really loved how we went to 6 different spots and they were all different and unique. I got to see parts of the area that I haven’t seen even though I’ve been here a week. Thank you to our tour guide who was so fun and informative! My favorite was the el pastor taco!🫶
Operator response
Hope, thank you so much for this!! Made my day 🙌 So cool that you found new spots even after a week in PV. And yes, the al pastor taco always wins hearts, glad it got you too! Hope to have you back on another tour sometime 😊

Such a fun evening! Our guide took us to amazing local spots we never would have found on our own. Every single stop was delicious, the atmosphere was awesome, and the tacos were unbeatable. If you're in Puerto Vallarta, do not skip this
Operator response
Thank you for the kind words! I love showing guests the local spots that don't always make it onto the typical tourist map — that's really what this tour is all about. So happy you had a great evening and enjoyed the tacos. Thanks for the recommendation, it means a lot!

Good Tour
We visited incredible local taco stands, ate the best al pastor and churros in town, and learned so much about the city's food culture from our amazing guide. Come hungry—you'll leave completely stuffed. A total must-do
Operator response
Ha, "leave completely stuffed" is exactly the goal! Thank you for the great review — so glad you enjoyed the taco stands, the al pastor, and the churros, and got to learn a bit about PV's food culture along the way. Thanks for coming hungry and for the awesome feedback!
