Awful

Steve_P, Apr 2024

We never got a confirmation call and therefore we missed our bus. It was very disappointing. And viator has not offered to give us our money back.

Tourist Trap

Anonymous, Apr 2024

Nothing great to see. We were told by our guide that there is a sewage problem in San Pancho and Sayulita and he doesn't recommend eating there. We trusted him and we ended up eating where they sell tequila and got ripped off when we ordered drinks. Food was not good and pricey. Complimentary water was not free.

No show by actual tour operator

Michelle_V, Mar 2024

Booked tour via Viator and received an email from Greyline who are the tour operators asking to email or phone for confirmation. I emailed them but didn’t receive an email back. On the day of the tour which was to pick us up from the hotel at 10 am they were a no show. Phoned them at 10.15 to be told the tour was on its way to Sayulita despite the fact that they had charged my credit card two days earlier. Was told to contact Viator for a refund which was quickly done online. Kind of ruined the day because by the time it was sorted it was too late to book something else and we had to stay within the city.

Horrible customer service

Nuemy_F, Mar 2024

We were unable to take our tour because the company we were assigned to us had a lack of communication and didn’t tell us we had to be at the pick up location earlier. They were unable to accommodate us and said we would get a full refund through Viator. It’s been over 24 hours and nothing has been resolved. We are out our money with Viator plus the money we had to pay to still get to our destination. Not happy at all.

Trash

Kyle_F, Mar 2024

Nobody showed up, nobody returned emails, and I still haven't received a refund. Complete trash and never again will I use Viator for my bookings

Do this tour!! One of the best days of our trip!

Frank_R, Dec 2023

Highlight of our trip! Jaun was absolutely amazing. Very informative and let everyone do their own thing. The lunch and tequila tasting was wonderful. By far the best tequila I have ever had. San Pancho and Sayulita were magical. We will be going back!! highly recommended.

Excellent day checking out this surf town

glad we went

Ronald_W, Jun 2021

guide was good. Town was interesting but very busy and touristy. Expected a less developed beach town, more like Yelapa. Beautiful setting and beach. Did enjoy a getaway from PV in the middle of our visit. Viator handled things very well, as usual.
