Traveler reviews
Great Tour and No Walking!!!
Normally I wouldn't be the person choosing seafood, but this trip changed my mind about fish. That was a pretty nice surprise. Bernardo took just two of us on the road tour, with an air conditioned van between stops. This was hands down the nicest van I've ever been in. I enjoyed getting around to different neighborhoods, including Versalles and Pitillal, after doing walking tours earlier in the week. There were six tastings, spread over an outing that lasted until about three in the afternoon. Having so few guests made this feel quite personal. We had the Sprinter van for the two of us as we went between neighborhoods.
Savor a Slice of Vallarta Awesomeness
We had a wonderful time on this tour. Our guide, Bernardo, drove us to a few different neighborhoods where we sampled delicious, local food and learned about the history of each place we stopped. We appreciated his deep knowledge of food culture and local plant life. Moving around in a nice, air-conditioned van was very pleasant and comfortable - really a genius, weather-resistant way to explore Puerto Vallarta. We were fortunate to be with Bernardo who made the tour very special, best guide ever!
Vallarta by road from cruise shop
We were coming from the cruise ship and it was easy to get an uber to the office from the port, where we found out that we were the only people booked for the road tour that day. We had a good time in the different neighborhoods, there were 6 stops on the tour including barbacoa, tacos, tamales, and popsicles. There was a celebration going on in one of the neighborhoods so we were able to see some additional sites that day! Returning to the cruise ship was also easy and we had plenty of time.
Wonderful!
I’m visiting Puerto Vallarta with life-long friends. We enjoyed the food tour so much. The tacos and treats were DELICIOUS! Joanna was the best tour guide and I would definitely recommend this tour.
It's so good and worth every cent!
This is my third tour with Vallarta Food Tours and it gets better each time! The Vallarta by Road tour was fantastic. My cruise ship was finally there on a day they offered it and I jumped at the chance to do it. The places we went were absolutely amazing and delicious. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and did a fantastic job. I can't wait to be back and take another tour!
