Our Tour Guide, Alejandra Ortiz and our Driver, Victor were amazing! We loved every minute of this tour! Alejandra was kind, knowledgeable and engaging. The price of this tour should be TRIPLE the cost as the experience is not only fun, but educational. It was incredible to see PV through Alejandra's eyes! Alejandra and Victor made us laugh, we felt like we were with family! The van ride was comfortable and cool. The places we stopped were fun and the restaurant served amazing food. It was so much fun learning the history of PV and surrounding areas. This is an experience you won't find anywhere else! 10's across the board! We would do this tour again, without a doubt. We HIGHLY recommend this tour. Fun for a girls day out, a family, solo, it's safe and has the right amount of walking and riding in a nice, cool van. We had a blast! Tip your your guide and driver, they work hard to provide an amazing and fun experience. Thank you for this experience, we will never forget it. Thank you Alejandra and Victor. You both are amazing!

We ended up on a private tour of Puerto Vallarta with Daniel as our tour guide in an air conditioned van. He had lots of enthusiasm and knowledge of the area to share with us. It was a great way to get a feel for the city. There were stops at a candy shop, leather shop, jewelry shop and tequila distillary, where you could learn how these items were made and you had the opportunity to drink (tequila or beer) and purchase goods. Bring your credit card for these spontaneous purchases! There is an animal shelter at the end of the tour where you will stop for lunch (not included in price). It was fun holding the monkeys, tucans, snakes. Overall, a fun day trip for first timers to Puerto Vallarta.
Response from Host, May 2024
Hello Richard, thank you so much for your review. We are very glad you could have a little taste of our beloved city of Puerto Vallarta, about our traditions and our wild fauna. We have designed this tour so visitors can see it all (as much as possible) in one single day. We're glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for your review!

Daniel the tour guide was exceptional. Ronaldo was good driver and both assisted everyone on and off the bus.

The day started off with a prompt pickup from the hotel. We were taken to the Boardwalk where Gloria explained the significance behind the art installations. Then we walked over to see a church followed by a candy store. Most of the items in the candy store were handmade and delicious. Sample whatever you like and be prepared to spend. Afterwards, youl walk over a suspension bridge into a local market filled with vendors. We didn't have time to browse but, there are plenty of opportunities for shopping throughout the day. After crossing a second suspension bridge, we made it to the jewelry making shop. While surrounded by people making jewelry, Gloria taught us about mined opal. Right next door is the jewelry store when you can grab a drink and browse all the fine pieces they've made. No pressure to buy anything but, if you see something that catches your eye, the employees will be more than happy to assist you with a purchase.
We jumped back in the van and drove through Zona Romantica to the leather shop. Gloria showed us all the different types of leather and products they make. A very cool experience. Afterwards we drove to see Los Arcos, took a few pictures and moved on to grab lunch at the animal sanctuary. You can hold a tucan, feed the monkeys, and have lunch by the river. It's a cute spot.
I'd recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning about Puerto Vallarta and it's rich culture.
Response from Host, May 2024
Hello Farhan,
Thank you so much for your kind review. It is quiet detailed.
What I read in your review is that you enjoyed your experience with us, and this is our most precious gift because, behind that tour, there is a lot of work so everything goes fine and smoothly.
We are glad you could see and sample a little of what we do in Puerto Vallarta, and that you could meet our tropical animals at the end of the tour.
Thank you for recommending our tour to other travelers. We appreciate your review very much! Greetings from us all at CityFunTastic!

Omigoodness! Just do it! I took this tour today with Daniel as our guide and Lorenzo as our driver. Both highly professional and knowledgeable. Pick up was at the cruise terminal (do get clarification which OXXO store) on time, after picking up another couple. Three of us has almost a private tour. We went to Malacon. Old Town. Romantic town. Out of town. We had opportunities to shop for opals after learning about local sourcing. We visited a gorgeous leather store. Then headed out to tequila tasting. Since I wasn’t interested, Daniel took me next door to a coffee house where the woman sent her daughter to get milk so I could have the cappuccino I requested. Very personal and accommodating. The whole day. We ended with a lovely lunch (own expense, own selection) at a beautiful outdoor restaurant setting. Then a chance to see some adorable monkeys, and back to town. Daniel’s English is perfect and his enthusiasm for his country is clear. He is well informed and offered many truths and tips. So much so that I am ready to move to PV! Truthfully, I had low expectations because of the very reasonable price but I got so much more than the cruise mates on high price tours with big buses to see much less.. highly recommend this tour!

The staff was so friendly. Ricky was our guide and he knew what he was doing and how to bring the energy up. Diego was the photographer and captured some amazing pictures. The experience was wonderful. Saw a whale when we weren’t even trying. Some beautiful spots were shown and we got to explore.

Hey John! Thanks for the review! :)
Candelaria_P, Mar 2024
The Most Memorable part of our tour was the animal sanctuary, the tequila and the coffee presentation.
Response from Host, Mar 2024
Hello Candelaria! Thank you very much for sharing your opinion. It helps us a lot to know what we do well and what we can improve. Of course, we agree with you that the section of the tour with the animals is a very sensitive and inspiring moment. We love it too! And yes, tequila is a source of joy and celebration... Few things are more Mexican! We are delighted to have been part of this fantastic day for you and we loved having you on board. On behalf of the entire team, we thank you for your preference and for sharing your opinion here.
