Feedback, Reviews and Testimonials
"My significant other and myself toured Puerto Vallarta through Carnival Cruise lines in February. We took the
CITY AND TROPICAL
TOUR with Carlos as our tour guide and he was so
knowledgeable and funny, we simply loved it! I was a bit
hesitant of doing this tour, and honestly, I was
disappointed with the cruise and the vacation up to this
point . However, doing this tour was the greatest
pleasure for us. It completely made this whole vacation
worth it! The tequila factory was fantastic, and Carlos
was so knowledgeable of the history and he was a true
and genuine person. I will definitely be going back to
Puerto Vallarta and recommending Carlos and this
tourist guide business to anyone who goes there! Thank
you, Carlos!" - Judy & Geylie from California
"My two good
friends and I had an absolute blast doing these activities!! We
started with the ZIPLINE and, my
God, best experience of our lives. Ivan and Mickey were the perfect
hosts, they made everything funny and exciting only by being genuine
and we felt safe and happy around them. The meals afterwards were
also to die for, and we were glad to purchase our CD and t-shirts as
well. If we had more money with us, we would have tipped them big.
It was absolutely amazing. The
Dolphin Adventure came later that day which was also a wonderful
thing to experience. The three of us were impressed and had to
purchase that CD as well (although it was quite pricy so be
expecting that). And finally, two days later came our
Boat Tour which honestly turned out
better than any of us could have expected. The whole day was
flawless; our original boat request wound up being cancelled so
instead of doing the Marietas Island Exploration we did the
Yelapa and Majahuitas Tour,
and they quickly refunded us the difference in price! Those hosts
were wonderful too, I forget the name of the fun one who treated us
but I do remember Rafael the photographer and Omar the other host.
All did a fabulous job at keeping everyone happy from what I saw. My
friends and I enjoyed plenty of margaritas, snorkeling, relaxing out
on the beach, getting a free meal, and
RIDING CABALLOS THROUGH A VILLAGE TO
A WATERFALL. I was in LOVE with the experience. We danced on the
boat all the way back; a 19, 20, and 21 year old�s paradise. We were
more than impressed with this entire trip and we want to thank
everyone who made it possible � the organization, the drivers, the
hosts, and of course the beautiful location itself. Puerto Vallarta
was truly paradise!"
-Marissa, Michelle, and Catherine
from Federal Way, Washington
"Just wanted to
pass on that my experience booking a
jeep tour
threw Puerto Vallarta Tour was OUTSTANDING! I was nervous at first
ordering on-line, but information provided was spot in. Our personal
tour guide showed up right on time and provided us an experience of
a life time.
Thanks for advertising and I will suggest to all to use this tour
site. We will use again!" -Rob from Castle Rock, Colorado
"I filled out your form but I also wanted to
tell you that you and Johann have an AWESOME company with great
people providing a wonderful service. We have used your tours
before and will continue to anytime we go to a location that you
serve. Pat yourself on your back!!!"
-Becky from San Diego, California
"Although
we will not arrive in Puerto Vallarta until next Sunday
and have not had the opportunity yet to experience your
transportation services I wanted to express my sincere
appreciation for your customer support staff member
Gladys and her help booking the transfer from the
airport to our hotel. I am a bit "old school" when it
comes to initially booking something and I prefer to
speak with a person rather than depend entirely on the
on-line services. Gladys was patient with me, walked me
through the process, and answered all my questions in a
highly professional manner. Thank you for the excellent
customer service, my hope is we will have the same high
level of customer service with our driver once we arrive
in Puerto Vallarta on Sunday and they will live up to
the excellent experience I had with Gladys when booking
the transportation!" - Hamilton from Velmont,
California
"Went on a tour to
Las Caletas,
had the best time ever!!! Everyone was so nice and ready
to help. Roberto was especially helpful in getting on
the paddle boards and snorkeling!" - Stephanie from
Burnsville, Minnesota
"My husband and I went to
Puerto Vallarta in Feb/Mar this year and experienced
three tours Rhythms
of the Night,
Extreme Adventure and
Caletas Whale
Watching. In two words simply amazing!!!! The tour
guides were outstanding, very knowledgeable, friendly,
funny and extremely helpful on all the tours. I�m sixty
years old, on the extreme adventure tour I faced some
very challenging situations, they were very patient when
I was a little hesitant on the zip lines, I�m proud to
say with their help I made it to the superman zip line,
when I called it a day. The guides we�re Sergio, Luigi,
Andrea, Noaemi, Zaho and Photographer Many, thanks to
them, my husband and I had a wonderful adventure.
Rhythms of the Night was an evening we�d do again in a
heart beat better than any stage show in Toronto, a
very romantic evening with a beautiful cruise across the
bay. Whale watching was also an experience we wouldn�t
have missed we were able to photograph a pod of 13
whales, my pictures are amazing. The food and service
were great we were really looked after. All the tours
were well worth the money. Our thanks to all the
employees for their genuine appreciation of their jobs
and the tourists they look after, with a warmth we found
so bountiful in their beautiful country. Thank You all
for a vacation we will remember forever!" - Stephen
and Brenda from Lindsay, Ontario
"Thank you for including a
list of charities in your
request for an evaluation of your services. While we
were in PV we accidentally got on a bus that took us
into the hills above PV and saw much poverty and many
children in difficult circumstances. We selected one of
the charitable organizations you listed (Casa Hogar
M�ximo Cornejo Quiroz) and are now making a monthly
donation to them!" - Norm and Julie from Roberts
Creek, Canada
"My family and I, 8 of us,
recently participated in the
Outdoor Adventure in
puerto vallarta. This adventure far exceeded my
expectations. From the time we got on the boat until we
got back, I couldn't say that there was anyone or
anything that you could possibly do to make it better.
The guides and drivers were all amazing, caring, funny,
and much more. I loved how the two guys stayed with our
little group the whole time. It was so personal and I
felt important to them. Usually these kind of things are
just like an assembly line and people are moved along
but the outdoor adventure was not like that. They guides
were like our trainers and they stayed with us and
helped us through the challenging obstacles. The boat
driver even stopped several times when he saw some
whales and dolphins. I was really surprised at how he
cared about entertaining us. He didn't have to do that.
But he really seemed to care about us. On top of the
wonderful staff the adventure is beautiful, challenging,
exciting, and fun. This was really worth the money and
something that I will never forget. Whoever has put this
adventure together has done an amazing job!" - Bonnie
from Gold Beach, Oregon
""Wonderful trip!! We went
on Las Caletas, the deluxe Dolphin swim, and Rhythms of
the Night. Wow!!" - Mary from Lexington, Kentucky
"We had a great time during
our Marietas tour! The whole crew was professional and pleasant.
Charlie was our snorkeling guide. He was excellent! We like
that it was a small group because we had more personal instruction
and our guide was great at finding different sea life and
pointing it out to us. We would definitely go on this tour
again!" - Michelle from Mesa, Arizona
"I wanted to let you know that the
Private Yelapa Tour was amazing.
Sammy took really good care of us and we all had a great
time!"
- Norah from El Cajon, California
"I cannot
THANK YOU ALL enough. We booked 4 tour/activities and a
VIP Airport Shuttle
with you guys and I can't even begin to put into words how
AMAZING everything was. From booking to organizing to personalized
and informative tours with amazing guides and hosts. I went
to Puerto Vallarta to compare it with Cabo and the Mayan
to see where I most would like to park for my winters and
without question, PVR has won my heart. THANK YOU THANK
YOU THANK YOU!!" - Michelle from Calgary, Alberta
"We just
did the Islas Marietas snorkeling tour. Our tour/snorkeling
guides were Carlos and Lesandro. They were both great. There
were 15 of us from age 4 - 60 on two separate boats, and
they were able to accommodate all our needs. Hidden Beach
was amazing. I would definitely recommend this tour group
and these guides. Thanks for a great day!" - Joanne from
Plymouth, California
"WOW.
Your service has been excellent, and this is not just my
opinion. I am a timeshare owner at Costa Sur and the
many other owners who come to Puerto Vallarta to PdS Costa
Sur every year, some of which I've known for 30 years, mention
the good service at our private web site for just us owners.
The owners of which there are about 1,200 who are members
of our web site, regularly mention that the best
transportation from the
airport is to use your service, especially those guests
of an owner who has either rented their week(s) to another
or are expecting a friend or relative to join them at Costa
Sur, arriving at a different time or by a different airline.
I've used your service for several years, 4 times each year,
and I will be making a reservation for the 24th of May when
I come back to Puerto Vallarta!" - Gil from San Marcos,
California
"My
husband and I went on the
Hidden Mexico Jeep Tour up into the Sierra Madre on
March 19th. We are still talking about it on a daily
basis as it was the absolute best day of our week in the
PV area. SO glad we decided to do this - Juan was an incredible
guide! It touched our hearts to see how deeply he
cared for the entire area, people, plants, animals, culture
and history of Mexico. Honestly, I've never met anyone with
such enthusiasm and excitement to share his knowledge of
everything from trees, to bugs, to birds, fruits, veggies,
and people living in the mountains. The day flew by
and we loved every single moment. Juan couldn't have
done a more superb job and I had to hug him before we left
- he just felt like a friend I want to see again!
We will never look to the mountains the same way again -
now we smile not only because they are "pretty" off in the
distance from the beach, but more because we've met some
of the families and children and have a better understanding
of what life is like just a few miles away from the hotels.
If you go, bring your camera and make sure the battery is
FULLY charged - you'll be taking lots of pictures. thank
you so much Juan!!! - Linda & Greg from Breckenridge,
Minnesota
"Hi.
I just returned home from Puerto Vallarta and I wanted to
let you know what a great time we had on ALL of our tours,
but especially the
Highland Birds
tour and the Hike & Snorkel
tour. Juan (jeep safari guide) was SO friendly and very
knowledgeable about the region, and he told us a great deal
about the local plants and how native people use them, which
was fascinating! He was very enthusiastic and made the trip
super fun. Fernando (highland birds guide) was very knowledgeable
as well, and took us several places where we got to see
a huge variety of birds. He knew all about the birds we
saw and his enthusiasm was infectious, and made the trip
even more fun to see he was just as excited as we were to
be there. I was really impressed with both Juan and Fernando
and really wanted to pass along my satisfaction with both
of them. Their tours were really the highlight of our trip
to Puerto Vallarta. Thanks!" - Ursa & Jim from
Anchorage, Alaska
"I just wanted to let you know
that we really enjoyed our tour of
San Sebastian yesterday.
Our guide Miguel was very knowledgeable about Mexican history
and culture, the Mexican lunch was delicious, and it was
a wonderful day. I would recommend it to people!"
- Martha from Toronto, Canada
"Hi!
My husband enjoyed 3 weeks in Puerto Vallarta in February
of this year. On February 2, we boarded "Geronimo",
what a great time that was! The seas were calm and
we saw lots of whales and dolphins. Jorge, Paco, Delilah
and crew took excellent care of us and showed us a spectacular
time. There were only about 20 of us on board, so the entire
trip was like we were on board with family. Great
staff and great food as well. We will certainly recommend
"Geronimo" to anyone we know travelling to Puerto Vallarta!"
- Val & Murray from Onanole, Manitoba Canada.
"Thank you so
much for the most wonderful afternoon that my husband and
I have experienced. The gentlemen you have working
for you on the
zip lines
were very professional and courteous. It was also
a very special time as our son and his wife and grandson
were there to experience the beautiful surroundings.
Thank you again for this once in a lifetime experience!"
- Faith from Folsom, California
"Sammy was one
of the best parts of our trip to Puerto Vallarta. My wife
and I took our parents on vacation and our present to them
was a fishing/snorkeling/waterfall
climbing/AMAZING ocean voyage on a small chartered boat,
with Sammy as our captain. He gave us the best tour! We
caught bonita tuna and 24 minutes later it was served as
an appetizer for lunch at this amazing restaurant in Yelapa.
The tour was definitely the highlight of the trip, especially
because my fish was way bigger than my father in-law's.
The next time we come back to PV, you can guarantee that
we will be spending an afternoon with Sammy!" - Jeff from
Austin, TX
"Had
a great tour to Talpa, Pedro
the tour guide was awesome the food, information and knowledge
was outstanding. Will definitely book another tour
on our next trip to Puerta Vallarta!" - Lynn from Delta,
British Columbia
"Thank
you so much for the most wonderful afternoon that my husband
and I have experienced. The gentlemen you have working
for you on the
zip lines
were very professional and courteous. It was also
a very special time as our son and his wife and grandson
were there to experience the beautiful surroundings.
Thank you again for this once in a lifetime experience!"
- Faith from Folsom, California
"Just a quick
email to let you know that Carlitos and the crew did a great
job on the Caletas
adventure we were on last week in Puerto Vallarta as
a part of the Disney Wonder cruise group. The beach
was beautiful! Everyone associated with the tour on
the boat and on land were great! The lunch was very
fresh and tasty as well. Definitely do it again if
we had the chance. A great memory from our awesome
vacation!" - Shawn from Phoenix, Arizona
"Hey
I just wanted to let you know that I had a great time
with Jose! Thank you
very much for a great time!" - Clayton from Loomis, California
"Thank you for providing such
a fun safe day. We enjoyed our
jungle ATV tour more than
we can express. We weren't sure if the tour would be cancelled
because of the storms we experienced the night before (hurricane
Jova) but we were reassured by the staff the tour was still
on. We loved the sights/history of the area/and the company
of your staff. The restaurant mid excursion was so unexpected!
Thank you for making our day one of the best we experienced
in PV!" - Christie and Dan from Wausau, Wisconsin
"My husband and
I really enjoyed the food tour
and was impressed by our tour guide. She was very,
very nice and we enjoyed her so much! What a great
jewel you have in her. Thank you so very much!" -
Claudine from Auburn Hills, Michigan
"Using Puerto Vallarta Tours'
airport transfer service
is the only way to go. It helps you avoid all the timeshare
sales people in the airport and get to your hotel faster.
I don't use anyone else!" - Donna from Las Vegas, Nevada
"We just got back from Puerto
Vallarta, and we took the
Mundo Nogalito
Canopy Zip Line Tour. First of all I want to compliment
your company on how easy it was to book our tour, and how
professional everyone that we spoke to there at Puerto Vallarta
Tours were! We got a confirmation right away and tickets
were in our email inbox as promised! You are a very trustworthy
company that I will highly recommend to anyone going to
Mexico. Directions to our pick up location for our
tour were right on the money and really easy to find, which
is always nice when going to a place you have never been
to before! Our Zip Line Tour was the highlight of
our vacation! There were 16 of us that went and we
all had a blast! Our tour guides were fun, funny and
made us all feel very safe! We purchased a DVD/CD
of our adventure and it was wonderful! Thank you so
much for the best time!" - Moreen from Lemoore, California
"My friend and I took the
Sierra Madre Jeep Safari
tour two weeks ago, and we absolutely loved it! Our guide,
David, couldn�t have been more courteous and he was very
knowledgeable about the area�s animals and plants. David
took us deep into the Sierra Madre mountains, through little
towns we would never have seen otherwise, and frequently
stopped the Jeep to hop out and show us a particularly interesting
tree or plant, even letting us taste tamarind right off
the tree and showing us a type of berry that the locals
make a type of coffee from. We saw iguanas, learned about
the different types of trees in the area, stopped by a beautiful
Mexican cemetery, and also stopped in a tiny town to enjoy
delicious, freshly-made tortillas. We met some of the children
of the town and saw their pre-school. To wrap up the day,
we drove through several plantations while David explained
some of the economic differences between those who work
in agriculture and those who work in the tourist trade.
What a great tour, and what a fantastic guide!! We couldn�t
have enjoyed it more, and would eagerly recommend this tour
to anyone interested in seeing what�s beyond Puerto Vallarta!
Thanks for a wonderful, memorable day!!!" - Cheri from
Rochester, New York
"Just
wanted to report back what an excellent experience [Private
Colomitos Snorkeling] was. The operators were very accommodating
and courteous. It was a perfect day for us! Thanks!"
- Henry
from Fremont, California
"Just wanted to tell you what
a GREAT time we had in Mexico; our cruise was not all that
great, but the two tours I booked through you (one for Puerto
Vallarta, and the whale watching in Cabo) were the best
parts of our vacation. I really appreciate the great
service you gave us through numerous cruise ship itinerary
changes, and putting up with me as an amateur at all of
this with my many, many questions!! And you saved
us a FORTUNE; we heard lots of horror stories on the ship
of people who had booked marginal tours through the ship
for top dollar and were really disappointed. We handed
out your website info to several folks for "next time".
So please count us among your many happy, satisfied customers,
and I will be posting A++++ reviews of your company and
service on numerous travel sites. Thanks again and
take care!" - Catherine from Denver, Colorado
"Richard
and I want to thank you all for wonderful activities we
enjoyed in Puerto Vallarta. Juan took us to the countryside
last Friday, a Jeep trip.
His knowledge is fantastic!! Emanuel took us via
ATV to the
botanical garden � another great trip. Richard
went out with Nino to kayak/fish
� no fish, but he had a fun time. When I catch up with getting
back into my routine, I will go to Travel Advisor and make
comments! Your staff was always helpful, especially when
we cancelled snorkeling and had to deal with a time change!"
- Susan from Tucson, Arizona
"Good
afternoon. I wanted to let you know that Carlos provided
one of the most fun
tours we have been on for any destination! He
is so fun, funny, professional and ensured that we had a
great time. Let me tell you, it was the best food
in all of Mexico for this visit!! Please give the
best compliments to Carlos for a fantastic tour! He
deserves high praise!" - Becky from San Diego, California
"I just returned from a trip
to Puerto Vallarta, where I had the great pleasure of going
on the Kon Tiki 1 snorkeling
tour. I can't think of words sufficient to explain how much
I loved the tour and it's crew. They were all really wonderful,
I hope to someday visit you all again! Thank you Daniel
for a wonderful afternoon!" - Michelle from Michigan,
USA
"We just got back from a Disney
Cruise to Mexico. We booked all our excursions through
your company. I admit, I was a bit nervous about booking
them online and not through the cruise line. But,
it all worked out just as they told us. We were traveling
with 3 young kids and didn�t have a minute of problems.
Our cruise line canceled our stop to Mazatlan, but the tour
company notified us before Disney did. Our money we
refunded promptly. So, if you are hesitant about booking
with these guys, don�t be. Everything was just as
they said and we had an amazing time on our
Pirate Ship Tour
and Land�s End Tour! Thanks for saving us so much
money!! We would recommend you to anyone!" -
The Hyer Family from
Utah
"We were very pleased with
Luis, our guide/driver.
He was competent, polite and charming and had very good
suggestions for our tour. We are pleased, too, with
all the information we received from the people at PV Tours
and with the prompt responses to all our questions.
We will certainly consider your services again when we return
to Puerto Vallarta!" - Gerald from USA
"My daughter talked me into
doing the Canopy River
zip line. I was terrified, but I did it!
It felt really good to get over my fear and fly across the
canyon with the birds! The Canopy River staff were
great fun and very helpful. I never thought I would
be able to do something like this, but I did and I am so
glad. The views are fantastic, the scenery and wildlife
were great and even the hiking was fun. Thanks for
a great adventure!" - Debbie from Victoria, British Columbia
"We just got back from Mexico
and wanted to let you know about our experience with the
Talpa Tour. We had just
the most wonderful day with our guide Pedro! He was
awesome! Not only did he guide us with interesting
information throughout the day, he made us feel very welcome
to his part of
Mexico. He ensured our comfort and enjoyment through
every part of the tour by asking us what WE would like to
do and if we would like to spend more time here or there,
plus giving us a great overview of Mexico's history.
We really enjoyed the breakfast and the lunch was absolutely
fantastic! I would highly recommend this interesting
tour and would like to thank Pedro for the great day!" -
Robert and Sherryl from Brandon, Manitoba
"We took a
private catamaran
tour with captain Carlos, and staff on Tuesday, Jan.
4. There were 14 of us. Everyone felt it was
the highlight of our holiday. Although some of our
kids didn't like to snorkel as much as we had hoped, Captain
Carlos saved the day, finding not only whales, but a huge
school of dolphins. The lunch was enjoyed, the service
and attentiveness was unbeatable. Thank you all for
a spectacular day that our family will never forget!"
- Ray and Susan from LaRiviere, Canada.
"Many thanks
for a really great day! We took the
Yelapa tour and were expertly
guided by David, our most capable captain, fisherman and
snorkeling guide. We were also lucky enough to have Nicolai
who is an incredibly knowledgeable and friendly land guide.
We fished, snorkeled, hiked, swam in the waterfall and had
a terrific lunch in Yelapa. This was the best day of our
whole vacation. We would definitely do this again and highly
recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. These guys
made our trip! We will never forget it. Thanks again David
and Nicolai, you guys are great!" - Paul and Jill
from Brush Prairie, Washington
"My wife and I, along with
six of our friends took the "Black Wind" to
Yelapa and we could not have
had a better experience. We snorkeled at Los Arcos,
and fished along the way; catching a couple of skipjack
tuna. When we arrived at Yelapa, the local restaurant
cooked the tuna for me and it was probably the best fish
I've ever eaten (of course, the fact that I caught it made
it taste better!). The beach was fantastic and the
hike to the waterfall was a great look at how simple life
can be. Our tour guide, Nicholas, was full of information
and his familiarity with the locals made the experience
comfortable and enjoyable. David, the boat captain,
did not speak much but knew where the fish where and handled
the boat extremely well. If we ever make it back to
Puerto Vallarta my wife and I would gladly make the trip
again! - Jon & Tosha from Central Point, Oregon
"We booked
2 tours through you 1 for the
outdoor adventure and
1 for a deep sea fishing tour
and we couldn't have been happier. We had a group
of 5 people and loved every minute of our excursions not
to mention we paid better prices that most. In both
excursions safety was a top priority, you work with very
reputable individuals. We will definitely book through
you again in the future. Thank you!" - Tabitha
in Muskegon, Michigan
"We were so excited to go to
Puerto Vallarta and go on the Pirate Ship Adventure.
Too bad we were on the Carnival Splendor the week the fire
broke out and totally destroyed our whole vacation.
Of course we were told because we booked our trip over the
internet we probably wouldn't get our money back.
Instead all it took was one quick phone call to the great
folks at Puerto Vallarta Tours to get our refund processed.
Thanks for not adding another headache to a very stressful
week for our family!" - The Tiptons for Utah
"Last week we took two of your
tours and found them exceptional because of your tour guides.
Victor was our guide to
San Sebastian and Miguel was our tour guide to visit
the Huichol Indians.
As well traveled tourists, we can say that they were two
of our best guides ever. They gave insights into the lives
of the people we visited and blended great humor to make
the long days very memorable. I am recommending these tours
to my friends and hope to return in the future. Please commend
these two guides as they made an interesting tour fascinating!"
- Hal from Reno, Nevada
"We just want to give big kudos
to the crew at El Eden
Canopy Tours for doing a fabulous job, and for giving
us girls the most exhilarating experience ever!! The scenery
was absolutely gorgeous, the guys took good care of us,
kept us safe & calmed our nerves easily. David & the guys
were hilarious, and made it even funner! :} We absolutely
love having the DVD & pictures, which I just got to watch
the other day..it will bring many smiles over the years
as we remember this fabulous day/adventure! We couldn't
have had a better experience on our much needed trip to
Mexico, thanks for helping to make this complete!! :}" -
Shauna from Salt Lake City, Utah
"Our
zip-line adventure
in Puerto Vallarta was all it promised with thrilling views
and a exciting experience. The ride was fun in an
open air truck, the safety and professional manner the guides
presented was just as good as their humor (cousins Amondo
and Estafan)! We got a ride straight back to the pier
after. Thank you for the wonderful value and unforgettable
memories. I would recommend and use your tour company
again!"
- Joy from
Brentwood, California
"Six of us participated in
the Talpa: Mysticism and Legend
tour yesterday which was lead by guide Noel. He was
great. He was organized, on time, very informed and very
courteous. The tour exceeded our expectations.
We have already recommended it to others at the Marina Riveria
Nayarit and they may be booking soon. Thanks to PV tours
for making this tour available to us! We learned so
much about Mexico since most of our experience has been
related to marine activities!" - Candice from Lumberton,
Texas
"Thanks very much for everything,
I had a great time! Even though I wasn't able to print
out my e-ticket ahead of time the
dive shop accommodated
me. They were great. I'll recommend PV Tours!
Thanks. Take care!" - Christian from Jackson Heights,
New York
"Although this is a little
late, I just wanted to send a note to tell you what a great
time we had on the
Los Veranos
canopy tour. The staff was really great, friendly
and helpful. the tour was definitely the high light of our
cruise! Thanks for all you help and please pass along our
thanks to the Veranos staff!" - Ted & Kathy from Garnett
Valley, Pennsylvania
"I cannot say
enough about our tour guide, Herman. We were a group of
6 people. He brought us to Yelapa
in a motor boat and showered us with special blessings for
the entire day. This man went far beyond what was required
of him. He climbed an almond tree at least 5 times to bring
almonds for the children. He gave us lots of educational
information about Yelapa and Mexico in general. He was constantly
smiling and engaging in conversation with us. He brought
us to see some beautiful tropical fish and was very careful
to make sure that everyone was safe and happy. You have
no idea how lucky you are to have this man representing
your company. He made sure that a taxi van was waiting for
us at the end of the day and guided us right into the van
AFTER he was aware that we had very little money to give
him personally. Herman has such great character, he's a
real gentleman. We all wish him good health and success.
I would recommend Herman to anyone and to any company that
needs a very special tour guide or teacher or leader. He
is the best I have ever seen. God bless and thank you so
much for giving us this special tour of Yelapa!!!" -
Cynthia from Durham, N.C.
" I commend your excellent
staff! It was a wonderful adventure. Your staff was tuned
in to our needs!!! I was a little shaky and they recognized
it! I completed the course and loved it! I will recommend
this tour over and over again. We have been coming to PV
for 16 years....we will canopy
again!!!! Thank you!" - Sandy and Joe from Michigan
"My family and I just returned
from Puerto Vallarta. We scheduled 4 tours through your
company and every single one was excellent. We did the
Los Veranos
zip line and the staff was really professional but also
really fun. The full day Whale
Watch on the Isis and the
Sea Kayak trip through Eco tours
were incredible. The staff and crews on both trips were
so knowledgeable and fun. Both totally delivered on what
they advertised. But we really want to thank Pedro, our
guide on the Talpa Tour. He
is a fountain of knowledge. He picked us up at our hotel
and for the next 10 hours shared his knowledge of the local
agriculture, scenery, history, culture and of course religion.
The churches are magnificent and the experience is really
moving. The food was great, the drive was beautiful and
Pedro was joy to spend the day with. Don't let the length
of the tour scare you away. Being able to see the other
side of the mountains and experience a more "real Mexico"
was well worth the time spent! Thanks again! - Michele
from St. Paul, Minnesota
"We just returned from Puerto
Vallarta this past weekend and while we where there we took
the Canopy Tour La Vista.
It was excellent!! I want to commend you on the staff you
have working there, they are a great bunch of people! Very
fun & entertaining. They made the tour very enjoyable &
comfortable. The ride up & the zip lines were so much fun.
Thanks we had a fantastic time!" - Christina from Edmonton,
Alberta
"We recently did
the private hiking tour of
Mundo Nogalito while in Puerto Vallarta on a cruise.
Having been on literally dozens of excursions, this ranks
as one of our very favorites. One of the great things
about this excursion is that it is a private one.
Our group (four people) were all pretty experienced hikers
and in very good physical condition. Because of that,
we could go at our pace and not be held back. Second,
the guide, Alex, was phenomenal. He was fun, funny,
and knowledgeable. He was at the appointed meeting
place (right across from where our ship docked) and was
on time. We enjoyed not only the hike, but also his
insight of Puerto Vallarta as we drove to Mundo Nogalito.
Third, Mundo Nogalito was simply awesome. Despite
the rain, we had a great hike in an incredible place. Finally,
we had lunch there. Do NOT, under any circumstances,
pass up the Mahi Mahi cooked in a banana leaf. It
is without a doubt the best fish plate any of us had ever
tasted. Incredible. Thanks to every one at Mundo
Nogalito. You made us feel like family.
One of the best deals ever!" - Doug and Trish from Syracuse,
Utah
"We very much enjoyed
our vacation even with the vicious windstorm. I would
like to tell that we enjoyed the tours we booked through
you and appreciate the fact that we received a refund.
I really did not even think about that when we had to change
the tour due to washed out roads. When we told people
at the Hotel that we had booked all our tours through the
Internet they rolled their eyes and said good luck and don't
call us when you have problems. We were very happy
with the timeliness of pick-up and the quality of the tours
I can say I will recommend your company to all our friends
who may travel to Mexico. On one tour we saved over $20.00
each compared to what those on a cruise ship paid for the
same tour!" - Kenneth from Pender Island, California
"Just wanted to thank you for
all the help your staff provided on our recent
Jeep tour with Juan.
We were hesitant about booking on-line with a company we'd
never used before, and a tour company we knew nothing about
- not even it's name! We had a fantastic day with
Juan - so much so it ran much longer than normal and we
loved it. We ended up being driven by Juan - he was
so informative/entertaining we didn't want to leave to drive
ourselves! He definitely went above and beyond in
all respects of customer service. I'd definitely recommend
his tour and your company to all who ask, without hesitation!"
- Donna from Woodstock, Ontario
"My wife and I just got back
from Puerto Vallarta, and I wanted to congratulate one of
your tour guides for his expertise and professional skills.
Along with another couple, we took the bus trip to
San Sebastian, and
the guide, Victor, was by far the most knowledgeable person
I've ever met when it comes to Mexican history, sociology,
agriculture, economics, flora and fauna. Over the course
of the day, he kept up a continuous conversation with us.
He was witty, friendly and intelligent, and absolutely knew
something important about everything that we passed by on
the way there and on the way back. Every corner gave him
something more to explain to us, and he seemed to delight
in revealing every fascinating new detail. When we arrived
at our destination, we discovered he also knew every person
in San Sebastian, from the smallest children to the
oldest citizens, and as much as the local historian about
the village's history. He provided informed opinions on
such details as the Revolution, Pancho Villa and Zapata,
silver mining in Mexico, agricultural practices, the conquest
of Mexico by the Spaniards, wages and economic migration.
He walked us through the daily life of a coffee plantation
and introduced his many friends to us. As you can tell,
I've never been so impressed by a tour guide. Victor should
either be teaching at the University or he should run for
President. The trip was great (thanks to Victor), the scenery
was wonderful, and the whole excursion was a delight. Thanks.
See you next time!" - Peter from Edmonton, Alberta
"The
Zip-Line tour that
we booked through you was EXCELLENT! Your staff was very
friendly and helpful through out our stay with our questions,
concerns and planning. We will gladly recommend your
company to anyone traveling to PV. We also appreciate
the fact that you didn't try to sell us a time-share!!!!"
- Clint from San Diego, California
"Just a follow-up to our phone
conversation [ATV
& Canopy Combo], Treks ATV did a wonderful job
and went the extra mile to get us to the zip lines when
our cruise ship got in late, I will definitely be recommending
them to my friends. The people at River Canopy Zip
lines were also fantastic!" - Dean from Gig Harbor, Washington
"We enjoyed our
Pirate ship tour
100%!! It was amazing. The crew was awesome!
The food and entertainment was great and we had a great
time. We will recommend this to anyone who goes down
to PV. It was excellent value for money and our group
of 17 had a blast!" - Jamie from Beaumont, Alberta
"I'm happy that the folks at
Rancho Capomo
enjoyed us as much as we enjoyed everyone there, from the
guide to the chef. Their food was outstanding and
the first authentic Mexican food I've ever eaten in my life,
outside of the USA. I will highly recommend you and
Rancho Capomo to everyone I know who will be visiting Puerto
Vallarta in the future. Once again thank you for taking
such good care of us on our first trip to Mexico.
We look forward to more of them in the not too distant future!"
- Kayleen from Woodland, Washington
"Thank you, thank
you, thank you! Jim and I LOVED our
zip line
tour. Neither one of us had ever done a zip line
before but I was never for one moment scared. The
guides are just so great - very funny too! I
like the way these zip lines work where you don't have to
reach a glove up to stop yourself. Talked to some
other people who did a different kind of zip line and it
sounded like way more work. It was so much fun sailing
above the trees and looking down at the rushing river below.
Can't wait to come back and do it again. By the way,
the restaurant there has excellent food too. Joy
from West Chester, Ohio
"Magda,
I wanted to say a BIG thank you for making this trip happen
as we discussed. My family had a really nice time
with Roberto. You were a big part of making sure the
trip went according to plan. Thanks so much for your
hard work. Puerto Vallarta Tours gets a big recommendation
from me!" - Ruth from Farmington, Michigan
"My
Family and I recently enjoyed a
private excursion to Yelapa
with Sammy and Michelle. They were excellent guides and
deserve all the praise we can give them. The scuba dive
was just about the most fun and exciting thing I have ever
done. Bravo to Sammy for providing extraordinary education,
attention and example. Thank you and special thanks
to Sammy and to Michelle for making us feel so welcome and
for showing us all such a wonderful time!" - James from
Reading, Pennsylvania
"I just wanted to let you know
how much we enjoyed the
Los Veranos
Canopy tour. The guides were excellent and very
entertaining. The were reassuring and encouraging.
I asked if I could quit if I didn't like it or it scared
me too much. They said "sure, that they would take
me back down." This was not the case, I thoroughly
enjoyed the entire zip lining experience and would do it
again and again. What we got for the cost was fantastic.
In speaking to others, we got so many more zip lines.
The scenery was gorgeous. The total experience was
FANTASTICO!!!! Thank you for providing such a great
tour!" - Jean from Diamond Bar, California
"I had booked my
Ultimate Waterfall
Horseback Riding tour online prior to vacationing in
Nuevo Vallarta. I want to give a thumbs up on this
tour. It was very organized from the time of pick
up to the tour guides even delivering us back to our hotel.
The breakfast was great, the horseback ride and swimming
in the waterfall was also an experience I will never forget.
However, the climb up the steps and across the bridges to
the waterfalls was somewhat difficult for me since I prior
to my trip had surgery on my knee, but I survived it.
The ride through the forest was relaxing and beautiful.
When we returned back to the ranch we had an amazing lunch
along with all the beers one could drink and as many shots
of tequila you wanted to! Thank you so much!
I will always book my upcoming vacation tours with Puerto
Vallarta tours!" - Sally in Southern California
"Just wanted to say what a
fantastic time we had with Sammy and El Capitan Gingi) on
the Private Yelapa Tour. The
ride into the Vallarta Bay was really spectacular. We must
have seen a hundred dolphins jumping around our boat!
The snorkeling was outrageous, the fishing was exciting,
and the tour of Yelapa waterfalls- sublime! Then lunch on
the beach our fresh catch under the palm frond palapa was
just wonderful. This day was a day which will be fondly
remembered by our entire family! We really enjoyed our day
with your team on the bay, and then in Puerta Vallarta.
We got to do some shopping along the boardwalk before heading
back to the cruise ship that evening. Our whole family was
really thrilled with the trip! Sammy and Captain Gingi
were super and really made us feel welcome - Gracias amigos!
I would recommend this excursion to anyone looking for some
'fun in the sun' and a day packed with different activities
in the Puerta Vallarta area. No way we could have
that much fun in one day with a 'cruise ship excursion'!
Muchas Gracias!" - Craig from Tucson
"This is long over due. My
friends and I went on a 7 day cruise. And all 6 of us would
like to THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for a fabulous tour experience.
We booked the private driver
through you and we were 100% satisfied. Kudos to Mel, our
driver. He took us to the best places in PV ie Mismaloya
downtown PV, and to a tequila factory. We had such a WONDERFUL
EXPERIENCE and it was so affordable. At first, I was worried
about booking online but this company is VERY RELIABLE,
HONEST, EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. I RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY
TO ANYONE READING THIS." - Rina from Los Angeles, California
"I recently reserved your
Private Yelapa Tour.
This was our first outing with Puerto Vallarta Tours and
it was fantastic. We have owned a condo in Nuevo Vallarta
for 3 years and come down twice a year. We intend
to retire there in about 5 years. I just wanted to
let you know that our guide for the day � Marin � did and
absolutely fantastic job! Everyone loved him.
We will definitely book with you again for more tours!"
- Glenn from Anchorage, AK
"I
just wanted to let you know that your service was wonderful,
I could not say enough although there was a slight mishap
with the flight arrival your porters were wonderful, polite
and very apologetic it was great to just get in the cab
and be on our way without any hassles. I will use you again,
and I will recommend your service to all of my clients that
travel to Puerto Vallarta as I am a travel agent and am
always looking for reliable service for my clients. Thank
you and your staff for a pleasant arrival!"
- Anne from Corpus Christi, Texas
"I just wanted to let you know
you sites recommended tours are excellent. We did the
Royal Dolphin swim,
The El Eden canopy tour
and the Sailing with the whales.
We had a great time at all of them. The crew of the
sailing ships gave some of the best service I have ever
had. We had three families on the boat and we all had a
great time. Many times when you book over the internet for
someplace you have never been to there is a great risk of
disappointment. This time though your recommendations exceeded
our expectations. Thank you. We will definitely let anyone
we know who is going to the Puerto Vallarta area about your
site!" - Lori from Greenwood, Indiana
"We just returned from a week
in Puerto Vallarta over Christmas. Prior to departure,
we booked 5 different tours through
puertovallartatours.net.
We took in the City
and Tropical tour, the
Hike & Snorkel, the
ATV Jungle Trek, the
Las Animas Adventure
Park and booked a Private
Yelapa Adventure. Every tour provided us a different
experience. Our guides were all very helpful and informative
and made us feel very welcome. The company ran tours
that we had booked with only our group, due to low bookings
during the holiday season � where most companies would have
probably cancelled them instead. We ran into a little
problem one morning when our hotel pick up didn�t arrive.
I called the number on our ticket, and was quickly helped
to get our group of 6 to the start point of the tour.
We didn�t miss a thing, and without having to send an inquiry,
I received a reimbursement for our cost of transport due
to the error made. Fantastic customer service!
I would highly recommend booking tours through this company
to anyone!" - Robin and family from Calgary, Alberta
"THANK
YOU, THANK YOU! Setting up the
transfer was quick and
easy and we loved walking off the plane and seeing our name
on a sign and then being able to walk past all the people
selling timeshares, right to our ride. It made the
trip that much more enjoyable for me and my family. THANKS
AGAIN!" - Chad from Colorado Springs, Colorado
"I just
wanted to say "Thank You" for such an awesome
Dune Buggy Tour on
Friday, January 16th! This was one of the most fun experiences
we had while we were in PV, and I would absolutely recommend
it to a friend. I do wish we had a few more mud holes to
go through, because that was the most fun part, but the
guides were awesome, and we ended up laughing almost the
entire time. We had an awesome time!" - Jen from Puyallap,
Washington
"Thank you for a wonderful
fishing trip and great memories!
The two Juans and Michael were excellent crew and guides!
We caught some great fish, especially the sail fish and
the huge dorado! It is too bad we have no place in
our house to display such beautiful fish!" - John and
Colin from Sammamish, Washington
"Dear Wanda, I received the
new e-ticket. Thank you so much. I am very impressed with
your company. Very quick to respond and very easy to deal
with. I am sure we will have a great time. Can't wait!"
- Diana from Windsor, California
"Just want you to know
what a great time we all had during our stay in Puerto Vallarta.
My girlfriend Brenda and her son Eddy arrived a few days
prior to me. She had booked a �Hike�
through your company and also an outing at a canopy location.
I would have to say both adventures were great however the
hike with Oscar was fantastic. Oscar had an unbelievable
amount of knowledge of the area and the people. He was able
to show us the changes which have occurred and to even introduce
use to the people living in the area. After a short
while we felt as if we had known Oscar for a long time and
the whole trip was such a learning lesson, fun too. We even
got to meet a real Bull that would not let us walk down
a path. We had to cross a small river to bypass Mr. Bull.
So kudos to Oscar and your team for making our first trip
to Puerto Vallarta a memorable one and you can rest assured
we will be back. And a special thanks to Oscar!!" -
Jim from St. Cloud,
Florida
"What an incredible
fishing experience we had
this past Thursday, the boat was clean, the captain (Lalo)
was very experienced and his first mate (Pepe) was as good
as it gets. In 10 hours we were able to bring in 2 sailfish
125lb# and 2 bullhead mahi- mahi each weighing in around
40 to 50lbs. The bottom line is these guys know where to
find the fish. It was a first rate fishing experience due
to the hard work and knowledge of Lalo the captain and Pepe
his first mate, two guys that never quit. Thank You for
the Memories!" - Neal from Houston, Texas
"We are back home after
a great seven day Mexico cruise. I want to take a minute
to say Thank You for the great arrangements for having the
tour guide from Banderas at the Soriana Grocery Store. He
was 10 minutes early & stayed with us for thirty minutes
until the shuttle bus showed up to take us to the departure
point. The tour to San
Sebastian was EXCELLENT. In all of our non-cruise sponsored
shore excursions this has to be one of the best. San Sebastian
is a great kept secret. Maybe we should keep it that way.
Anyway the tour guide, Miguel was fantastic, and really
loved his job. So again, thank you for assisting us in our
travel plans!" - Michael & Rose from Edmonds, Washington
"I am trying your agency for
the first time and I just wanted to let you know how helpful
your staff has been. Elena has been patient with all
my questions, promptly answered emails and was very polite.
We are looking forward to our tours in Mexico next week
and will use your agency many times in the future.
Thanks again!" - John and Linda from Mesquite,
Nevada
"After running the gauntlet
of timeshare crooks it was nice to see the
VIP sign. It was
nice to be greeted with a bottle of water and have a full
size van to ride in. We will do this again on our
future visits. The whale
watching trip was outstanding! The boat, food,
beer, service, and our guide Julio made this one of our
best excursions since we started visiting PV in 2001.
We will use your company in the future and have recommended
it to our friends!" - George & Sharon from Stevens Point,
Wisconsin
"I just wanted to express my
100% complete satisfaction with your company and the excellent
customer service that Tasha and the rest of the office gave
to me and my traveling companion. We booked a sailing
tour to Pizota Beach on Thursday,
May 1st, and it really was one of the best days of our entire
vacation. The crew aboard the sailboat did a great
job at making our small group feel comfortable and relaxed.
The beach itself was the most beautiful place I�ve ever
been and the BBQ on the beach and drinks were excellent.
We had the wonderful opportunity to meet Tasha on this tour
and found her to be very friendly, hospitable, and professional.
I am impressed with both the crew on the boat and the ladies
arranging the tours. Thanks for an amazing trip!"
- Dallas from Herriman, Utah
"Hola! We were on vacation
in Puerto Vallarta just a few weeks ago (December 16th to
23rd) and booked two tours through you. The
Pirate Ship day
excursion was a fantastic day...our kids (8 and 10) had
a blast!! Please say thank you to their favorite pirate,
Capitan Gateau! (from Sophie, from Canada). Then the
Dolphin Swim Adventure
was an unforgettable experience!! Our Dolphin, Poseidon,
was just amazing and friendly! We don't have one bad
thing to say.....we were leery about booking online but
your company is reliable and honest and we received our
tickets right away online. When we arrived at both places,
everything was ready, and went smoothly. What a relief you
take off people's minds!! Especially on vacation, we didn't
have time to search out places, times, costs, so that's
why your services are so important. Keep up the great work
and when we return to PV, we will certainly book our tours
with you! And come visit at your location to get to meet
some of you! Muchas gracias for helping make our family
vacation one that we will never forget!" - Paul, Louise,
Gabryelle and Sophie from Dufresne, Manitoba
"I just wanted to let you know
that my canopy tour was fabulous.
The guys were great, the lunch was delicious, and most of
all, I know what it's like to fly like a bird. It was a
fantastic experience and I plan to do it again and again.
I look forward to returning and will send all my friends
your way. Muchas gracias!" - Mary from Los Gatos, California
"Thank you, thank you, thank
you! Our tours were perfect, and we had so much fun!
All the tour people were fabulous with the wheelchair.
Your tour instructions were easy to understand, and we got
to experience so much. In
Cabo, it
was so easy to get the wheelchair to the pool. Everyone
in Mazatlan made
it simple to catch all the sights (even in the best rain
storm). Alex, the tour guide from Tani Tours, was
fabulous. He helped get the wheelchair in and out
and up and down so that my son could experience Puerto Vallarta.
I have forwarded your list of tours for people with limitations
to AAA and disabled web sites. I will also recommend
you to everyone I know who is planning on visiting.
We had the best time and got to experience some very wonderful
things, thanks to you!" - Karen from U.S.A.
"Thank
you so much for your prompt response and help on getting
this refunded. We will be booking another cruise in
the future and will definitely use your service for
any future excursions. We have had outstanding customer
service as well as value with Puerto Vallarta Tours
and would recommend them to all our friends.
It was unfortunate
that our cruise was canceled as it was but you have
made the process of getting refunds very easy and taken
a bad situation and made it bearable." - Gary from
Redmond, Washington
"Just wanted to touch base
with you after our trip and give you some feedback.
We had a fabulous time on both tours!! The
zip line tour in PV was
terrific. Nice and small... great guides and a
great time! We love the small group tours!
In Cabo, the whale watching
tour was fabulous as well. We had a minor
snafu and had to change boats mid-ride, but that did
not at all diminish the great time we had. The
beautiful weather helped as well. All of your
personnel were very friendly and professional. Thanks
so much, and we will put out a great word for your company
and websites!" - Stephanie from Carrollton, Texas
"Thank
you so much for booking the activities, that we wanted
to do while we are visiting your beautiful city. You
saved us a lot of time! Thanks again for your
help!" - Mary from Kerrville,
Texas
"We booked several tours with
you for our trip to Puerto Vallarta from Jan. 9 - 16 and
came to your office to pay for the tours. Right from
the start, you were so friendly and helpful - even treated
us to a beer when we visited you to pay!! All of the
tours we booked were enjoyable - especially the
snorkeling
to Majahuitas and the
Pirates of
the Bay. Our trip was so wonderful - I really
hate being back in Canada and I'm sure I will visit Mexico
again. Thank you for everything - you really made
booking the tours so easy!!" - Darci, Mike and Randi
from Red Deer Alberta
"I just
wanted to let you know how much my wife and I enjoyed participating
in your �Outdoor Adventure�
on October 28th. We enjoyed every part
of that tour. I especially wanted to express
my appreciation for the men of Team D, who were our guides
for that day. They were very concerned with our safety,
were very friendly, and did all they could to make sure
we had a most enjoyable time. We�ve been telling our
friends how much fun we had and highly recommend they look
into it when in Puerto Vallarta!" - Lynn from Salt Lake
City, Utah
"We
just got back from our cruise last week and one of the ports
we visited was Puerto Vallarta. This was our 5th cruise
and we've visited many ports-of-call. I must say this
was the most fun we've ever had on a tour. The captains
(both Captain Bonnie &
The Pirate Captain)
were wonderful. All the "pirates" and everyone on
the ship were great. They were so entertaining and
the kids loved it. My little girl (age 4) especially
loved the pirate captain. Although she was afraid
of him at first, he quickly became "her pirate" and she
was most unhappy when he was "forced" off the ship.
I would highly recommend this tour to anyone!!!!" - Cynthia
from Chicago, IL
"Just wanted
to say that the tour was great! Thanks so much for making
it happen. We'll look you folks up next time... What great
service!
- Drew from Indo, California
"We had a great time
on the Marigalante!
The discount card was also great, we used it several times!
Mostly at restaurants. The River Cafe was our favorite,
and the only reason we went there was because it was in
the book!" - Helen
from Mukilteo
Washington
"We had
a wonderful time and would definitely recommend your company".
- Don from U.S.A.
"Just wanted to thank you guys
for a great day! We really had a blast last week and
I wrote up a recommendation on cruisecritic.com for you.
One thing, if there is a way I could get the recipe for
the green salsa at the restaurant we stopped at, I would
be forever in your debt. That was the best stuff I
have ever had and I LOVE salsa!" - Pam from Chandler,
Arizona
"Hi, just had to write you a note to
say thanks for the great holiday! I didn't think the
6 of us would have that much fun on those
dune buggies but it was beyond!
Thanks so much. And the guys were great, there funny,
helpful, and just want to make sure everyone has fun. I
know I would come back again tomorrow and do it again. Thanks
again!"
- Roxy from Lloydminster, Saskatchewan
"Your company is wonderful! I
have not even been to PV yet and I have had great service
in all the reservations we have made. I can not wait to
tell all my friends how great your service is. Thank you
so much again". - Karen from San Diego, California
"Hello, my sister and sister-in-law
and myself , thoroughly enjoyed our
safari with Juan
and Carlos on November 15th. In our group we had three
mentally handicapped tourists and Carlos was wonderful
with them. Carlos gave us a trip of a life time,
he is full of interesting and fun information on the
history of Mexico and flora and fauna of your beautiful
country. Juan certainly can handle any type of road
condition, we felt safe in his hands. Please let
Carlos and Juan know how much we appreciated the wonderful
fun day we spent with them! We'll never for get
it !!!!!" Thank you again!" - Janet, Cathy and Lynne
from Victoria British Columbia
"Sorry I missed you while we
were in Puerto Vallarta. We had a great time
fishing and even caught
some Striped Marlin. We are going to try to come back in
November and will look you up for another trip!" - Gary
from Tacoma, Washington
"Hola! I just wanted to thank you for your website.
My family and I just got back from our vacation and we stopped
at Puerto Vallarta. We bought the tickets for
Swimming with
the Dolphins for kids on your website. My kids had so
much fun and it was a great time! We are absolutely coming
back!"
- Maureen from Salem, Oregon
"Please accept my thanks for crediting
my account. You are an exceptional company that takes
customer service seriously. I will always return to
your company and tell everyone I know about your excellent
service". - Frank from Rocklin, California
"Thank you so much for getting me on
the early boat for Las Caletas.
I am so excited to visit Mexico for the first time. Thank
you so much for making my first travel adventures exciting
and easy to book. I will locate your office the day I arrive
so I know where to stand Monday morning and for all my other
trips with your company. I don't want to be surprised or
stressed the day of the trip looking for your office. I
was able to download each attachment and will bring the
correct papers the day of the trip. Have a wonderful week.
It is snowing in Colorado today so I will be looking forward
to some sun and warmth in just a few weeks!" - Elizabeth
from Aurora, Colorado
"We are back home in Oregon now.
The Canopy trip was a blast.
We did a little more walking up than we thought so we only
did 7 out of 10 zip lines. It is an adventure I will
never forget. Maybe the next time I'm in Mexico, I'll
have the weight down so I can try the other canopy trips.
Tell everyone job well done". - Rick & Pam from
Dallas, Oregon
"I Just wanted to let you know we had
a great time in PV and everything we booked through your
site was fairly represented, fairly priced, and on time.
I admit we were a bit worried sitting in front of the Hotel
Real but the
Copomo
bus showed up on time; we were on the list and we were on
our way to the Banderas Valley trails around Las Palmas.
By the way, the lunch we had at the ranch was the best Mexican
meal we had on our entire 8 day trip. I liked using
your site instead of concierge desks because we got the
tours we wanted and no pressure to visit a time share.
We called with a few questions and changes and your friendly
assistance was greatly appreciated. We were going
to stop in to see you when we went downtown to see the "flea
market" {which was disappointing because it is really a
"tourist market"} but we had no time. The downtown
bus and cab rides were a thrill ride all in their own!
We loved PV, we will utilize your site again, and we will
refer you to friends. Muchas Gracias!" - Anna from
Auburn, WA
"Dan writing to say we went on the
ship, and they
were wonderful! We had a time issue, that kept us
getting on the ship before it sailed. Diego arranged
to have us tendered out to the ship already underway to
the beach. We were treated better than imagined,
and the crew went out of their way to make Julia and Tara
welcome! The Pirate Leo, who was assigned to assist
us was fantastic! He had an older lady to care for
as well, since she could not negotiate the stairs either.
She too was thrilled with the care she received. At the
beach they were right there to aid us moving her to the
shore. We can't say enough good about their care for
special needs patrons. We highly recommend the experience
to others. Please convey our thanks to the ship's
staff, who made it great day!" - Dan from Aurora, Colorado
"Just quick feedback to you guys.
Canopy tour was great. Everyone
from the bus driver, to the operators/guides, were very
friendly. The zip lines were a blast, and the guides were
very informative on the local flora and fauna. We will definitely
recommend this to friends, and hope to get back there ourselves
soon with our two sons, as we know they'll love it also!"
- Kevin from Peoria,
Arizona
"We booked two events through
you before we arrived in Puerto Vallarta. We were
hustled at the airport to �see a 90-minute presentation�
(translation � buy their timeshare) and they�d give us a
City Tour and
Rhythms of the Night.
We were hustled at our hotel to �see a presentation� and
they�d give us a City Tour and Rhythms of the Night.
We didn�t want to waste time on a presentation � we were
there to vacation. We were so glad we didn�t let them
hustle us and give up your tour.
"Our
City and Tropical Tour
with Hector and Alfredo was phenomenal! Hector is
a wonderful tour guide with a great story-telling ability.
The stops at the churches, the Tequila factory, Malecon,
Old Town, and all along the bay as we headed toward our
exceptional dining experience were sprinkled with tidbits
of culture, history, architecture, and humor. Throughout
the week as we talked with other visitors and shared stories
of our tour adventure, we were convinced that we had the
best experience! Others paid more and did less � especially
those who sat through the timeshare sales presentations
and got the tour �free.�
"As for
Rhythms of the Night
� wow! What a unique cultural experience! The
night was misty and it added to the ambiance of the remote
setting. Thank you!" - Tricia from Marshall, Missouri
"I just want to thank you for
making our vacation a pleasant one. Your

"I thought I'd drop you a line
about our fishing trip
on Tuesday, 13 November. We were picked up at the
Paradise Village Marina in Nuevo Vallarta at about 7:05
AM by Lolla and Jose' in their well equipped fishing boat.
We quickly traveled to Corbetena for our fishing experience.
While on the way, Jose' set the bait and readied the lines.
On the previous evening, I had called and verified lunch
and ordered sodas, water and beer. In addition, we
brought some snacks and extra sodas that were properly stowed
by Jose'. In case you're wondering, Lolla, the captain,
spent his time piloting the boat, watching his upper lines
and looking for fish. Fishing lines hit the water
at 8:30. The first dorado hit at 8:45 and, with the
help and guidance of Jose', my 14 year old grandson pulled
in his first ever salt water fish. 15 minutes later
my 12 year old granddaughter pulled in another dorado.
Then my wife caught another dorado. This one weighed
close to 50 pounds! By 9:30, we had 3 good sized fish!
Later in the morning we hooked a sailfish, but the fighter
spit out the hook before we could set it. Late morning
we caught another dorado. Shortly after noon we hooked
a 60+ pound dorado and that was landed by my granddaughter.
Before we could even get all the lines back in the water,
Bam! another one! Then things got slow in the early
afternoon when all the fish went for siesta. We were
just about ready to give up when a 120 pound sailfish went
for an afternoon snack! Had a great time fighting
this one! Jose' lost his club trying to stun
the fish when we finally got it alongside so he used his
fist to knock it out! Trolled back towards the Marietas
islands with no more luck but what a day! 6 dorado
and one sailfish! Of course we'll do it again!
Oh, and the box lunches were delicious!"

"My family had the most fantastic
time when we visited the
Los Veranos
Canopy December 20! Not only did the zip lines
meet every expectation but the staff were very funny and
entertaining yet professional. Another added plus great
pictures and DVD to remember your time, worth every peso!
Our only wish was to spend more time relaxing and drinking
at the restaurant, there wasn't enough time to even test
the water, but what little time we did have a drink and
a bite to eat. I can't say anything negative from start
to finish FANTASTIC!! A must do again. Thank
you!" - The Sparks Family from Kansas City, Missouri
"Our vacation was fantastic
and your service was very, very good. We will definitely
use you guys for our transportation in the future! Happy
New Year!!" - Kevin from Hillsboro, Oregon
"Hi! Wanted to let you all
know what a wonderful experience we had with your company!
Everything was handled perfectly (even our little glitch
with our sailboat) and we wanted to let you know how happy
we were with everything! The
Jeep tour was our favorite.
Is there any way that we can contact them directly?
Our children were so taken with the school on the tour (even
though it wasn't in session) and would like to try to have
their school here connect with that school via the internet.
Thanks again for making our trip so wonderful!" - Patti
from Tiburon, California
"I just wanted to thank you
for the wonderful time that we had when we went on our Mexican
Riviera cruise. The ship offerings were expensive and not
that appropriate for my husband and me with our handicaps.
I talked with Maricela, and she was so helpful in finding
us tours that would work with our port schedules.
Your
Dive Shop in Cabo San Lucas provided us with a great
snorkeling tour, and we got an unexpected ride to see a
sea lion colony. In
Mazatlan, we
loved our tour guide and saw lots of the city. The absolute
best was the last - our Pegaso
Chartering whale watching tour. The sailboat was lovely
and the guides were fast at spotting whales. They kept us
in drinks all day, and they served a yummy lunch. We plan
to take the same cruise in 2009 and hope we can go with
Pegaso again. Again, thank you for all your help in
making our vacation the best ever!" - Leslie from the
U.S.A.
"Just wanted to thank you for
the smooth airport transfer.
Everything was just as it was stated. We would definitely

"Hey, Lisa! Wow....you start
work early---especially on a Sunday (darn tourists never
give you a break!) Thanks for forwarding my e-mail to
Los Hombres
de los Canopy....I just got finished watching the DVD---Gary
did an amazing job of capturing all the highlights (and
also the lowlights....like the three embarrassing times
I screwed up and got stuck---next time, I'm getting across
ALL the way ALL the time...but actually, watching the DVD
is really educational as far as learning good technique...very
PBS! ). The camera work is terrific and made me feel like
I was back up in the mountains again (and I really wish
I was---this is one of the few trips that I've seriously
not wanted to come back home from... I'm sure that
all of your guides are fantastic, but I hope to have the
same crew next time I come.....Javier, Bernardo, Gary and
mi amigo "Johnny Walker" are absolutely the best---hey,
can you make sure that they're working next January? I'm
going to Oaxaca on business then and I think I'll add a
couple of days in PV on the way back....can't get enough
of the canopy!!!! Thanks again for such a wonderful
experience and having a truly terrific company.....I'll
have to try some of your other adventures next time---maybe
bungee jumping!!!! (uh, no). Hasta Luego...." -

"As a frequent traveler, I
wanted to provide a strong recommendation for your

helpful and excellent at client service. He demonstrated
himself as an outstanding employee who represented the company
with great ability. As well, his English language
skills are strong. Please provide this feedback to
your company executive. Thank you!" - Gerry from

Here are a couple of
photos we took while fishing on the
Totoaba on January 28. This was Jens first time
fishing in Puerto Vallarta, she enjoyed herself so much
she is planning on returning, hopefully next year.
This was my first time fishing with Lalo & Pepe (Team Redbone)
on the Totoaba, We had a great day of catching Roosterfish,
Bonito and Jack Crevalle. Thanks for everything! -
Heather from U.S.A.
"I would like to tell you that
our fishing trip on 1/27 was awesome.
Juan (older) and Juan (younger) were great. The younger
Juan worked incredibly hard unhooking the fish and getting
the poles ready for the next round of catches. He
was just running around the boat working his butt off!!
We caught 38 fish that day � often two would be on a single
line at a time. It was a great day. I�ll
send a few pictures of the trip next week (I still haven�t
unloaded the camera). Juan (the younger) also filleted
four of the fish for us and we grilled them on our hotel�s
grill that evening � very good." - Tom from Holmen, Wisconsin
"We booked a
private driver in PVR on
March 20 through your company. The directions to meet
our driver, Manuel, at the Soriana were perfect. When
we got in the car, we asked Manuel to just be our guide
and show us whatever he thought we should see. He
was hesitant and said that his English wasn't very good
but that he would try. Well, his English was EXCELLENT,
and he was a fantastic guide! It was, by far, our
favorite day from our cruise. Manuel took us all around
the city, up into the hills, and out to Mismaloya Beach.
He joined us for lunch at a little restaurant called Los
Arbilitos which was delicious. He then helped us negotiate
for our purchases at the flea market (and told the vendors
that he will not accept commission) and then took us for
local Bing's ice cream. It was a fabulous day and
we were so grateful to have spent 5 hours with Manuel!"

"Hola Amigos! I just want you
to know my family and I truly enjoyed the
ATV tour. Your Crew Pepe
Le Pew & 7-11 and the last persons name slipped my mind

We will definitely be returning to Vallarta and the tour.

"Hello from Canada!!
Just wanted to leave some feedback regarding our
Princess Yelapa
- Majahuitas/Yelapa Beach tour booked through your company.
First let me tell you this was our very first trip to Mexico
and Puerto Vallarta was our first experience of Mexico.
We arrived there on a cruise and PV was our first port.
Needless to say...we were feeling a little out of our element
and were very nervous being in a country where we did not
know enough of the language. Once we found our way
through the Marina and paid the port fee...we were shown
the way to Yelapa Princess. On the way to our first
stop.....Majahuitas snorkeling....we were still feeling
a bit uncomfortable (our own insecurities) but the men on
the boat were so welcoming that it soon disappeared.
I wish I would have written down their names. The
older gentleman was so kind and gracious...and made the
best margaritas I have ever tasted...(would I be able to
get the recipe how they make them?) My little 3 year
old made some friends at Yelapa beach with a beautiful Mexican
family.....it took a 3 year old to show us that you can
get past a language barrier very easily!! Back on the boat
and on the way back to the marina was the best time....great
music and great dancing....the one gentleman that met us
at the Marina and showed us to the boat,...wow can he dance!!
I have never seen a man of that size, move like that before!!
He was great! All in all....this was a great experience
for my whole family. Thank You and May I send a thank
you to the crew as well. (they might remember us as
the uptight Canadians LOL) July 16/08. If I could
have their names that would be great!! and Oh yeah the breakdown
on what they put in the margaritas...like I said before..the
best I have ever tasted!!" - Shelley from Fort Nelson,
British Columbia
"I just wanted to let you know
that our family had a great time this past week. We
took the Canopy tour.
I wish that we were on the video more to show our friends
how fun the experience was. My only suggestion
is that at the end you could ask people if they wanted to
go again, for maybe partial price (just a marketing suggestion)
and I for one would have gone again....I loved the experience.
I would have been more adventurous the 2nd time around (hanging
upside down...) and that would have been a great time since
I was already there to get me back up in the trees.....think
about it. I will recommend this tour to everyone that I
can...thanks again!" - Kristie from Freemont, California
"Hola!! We went on the
Los Veranos
Canopy Tour last Wednesday and we had a great
time. The zip lines were amazing. The guides
made it very enjoyable and added to the fun at every opportunity.
Relaxing by the river afterwards with a shot of the "local
moonshine" and a few margaritas finished out a great day.
The water slides were a bit painful, but definitely added
to the memories!" -

"I had a great experience with booking with Johann &
Sandra for my family of four on the Marigalante Pirate Ship
excursion in Puerto Vallarta. By doing so, I saved about
$100 vs. the ship's price. The only panic I had was on our
receipt, it said to meet the pirates at the Marina at 8am.
Well, PV is 1 hour ahead of ship's time on the Mariner,
and the Mariner wasn't scheduled to be in port until 8am
(9am PV time). All was fine, we went down to the gangway
early and they had already let several passengers off. And
the collection of pax for the tour is from 8 - 9am PV time.
We were some of the last people to join the tour, but all
was fine! And we had a BLAST! I just loooove to save
money. Thank God for Johann and Sandra!" - CruiseCritic

"We just came back from PV and had a great time. I went
with my 4 kids and my husband and met about 40 of our friends
there. It was soooo much fun. You should definitely book
any excursions thru Puerto Vallarta Tours - Johann and Leslie
are sooo nice. They will email you, call you, chat live
online, whatever you need. They are honest and reputable
- I needed a refund on an unused ticket when I got home
and they promptly gave it to me, no problem, no fuss. Leslie
even had us over for free drinks at her house when we got
there...if you book online under Puerto Vallarta Tours,
please tell Johann and Leslie I said thanks for such a wonderful
time!" - Pam from Orlando, Florida

"We recently took the Las Juntas y Los Veranos Canopy
tour which was great and they treated us very well. It is
larger than the one offered by Holland America and not crowded.
Fun and not as scary as we expected. We saved even more
by booking through Leslie at Puertovallartatours.net and
paid through pay pal. We took a cab to the tour office for
about $10. Highly recommended." - RNKLASH from SLO County,

and I would highly recommend it for anyone with small children.
We took a taxi directly from the resort, and it was $20
US each way, with our driver waiting for us until we were
done so he could take us back. We thought this was a pretty
good deal, as the Tour was a considerable distance from
the resort..."

"We had several events scheduled while there. We had
a sail boat with
Pegaso
Chartering that was great. There was only one other
couple on the boat with us so it was like having your own
private boat. I highly recommend this Company. We also booked
the dune buggy adventure
with Puerto Vallarta Tours (we used this site for all of
our tours). It was a blast but you can expect to get wet
and dirty. Worth it however. Then the last one we did was
the pirate
ship dinner cruise better know as the booze cruise.
The ship is a replica of the Santa Maria, one of the Christopher
Columbus ships. You will get a laugh out of the urinals
in the mens room. Even though we don't drink a lot it was
worth the money and time spent. We had a great steak and
shrimp dinner." - TA Member Tkhurr from Idaho

to get us from the airport to the hotel. I was glad that
I did because our porter took us straight to their office

all at immigration due to the lines." - TA Member Ian+Courtney-DC

and found them to be very good. Their office is just to
the right as you come out of the "shark" tank. Their drivers
speak good english, and they will stop at a minimart so
you can get some cold cervezas to sip on the ride to your
hotel, if you so wish. Their website is
www.puertovallartatours.net or just google it and all
the info for airport transfers will be there along with
a price chart. Hope this helps!" - TA Member TrainChick

were running about $25 USD, Puerto Vallarta

sign with our name on it. They then took us
straight to their office. Gave us two free bottled

Tour on our Cruise to the Mexican

available through our cruise line
Holland America. The canopy tour
was GREAT! Actually my husband did
this same tour last year with his
sister and loved it so much when
we had the opportunity to go back
to Puerta Vallarta he wanted to
bring our kids. They kids had a
wonderful time and they treated
them soooo well. We purchased the
video, which I was a little nervous
we would never see, since they were
shipping it. However it came to
