Los Arcos 5 islands Snorkeling Cliff Jumping and Hidden Beach

Amazing Snorkel Experience
This tour was a great experience. Our guide Uly and captian Kiki were phenomenal! Uly gave us instructions on how to safely cliff jump, and how to work our snorkels. He took pictures for us, and had water, drinks, and snacks packed for all of us on the boat.The Los Arcos area for snorkeling was better than expected since there were 100’s of fish in the area. We definitely could have spent more time than we had just floating area viewing the wild life. The beach afterwards was small but a good time to relax and rest after the swimming/snorkeling.

Turtle release
The turtle release was amazing. You learned a little bit about the turtles, them hatching, the different breeds of turtles. You can even name your turtle and watch it swim into the beach water. The hosts Eddie and Toni were great. But the humidity kicked our butts. So stay hydrated! Definitely recommend!

Hike to heaven
The hike was great winding up the canyon, crossing the river several times kept it refreshing. Our guide Alex was amazing. We could not have asked for a better guide. He knew so much about the area, showed us various plants and trees, the gum tree was cool, the devil tree was..well named. Alex was relaxed but very professional and made sure we had a good time. Swimming at the waterfall is a must. It was beautiful and refreshing. It made for a really fun afternoon. Wear good shoes, don’t be afraid to get wet and enjoy the scenery.

Puerto Vallarta Sea Turtle Release & Conservation Experience

If you’re considering, DO IT!
This was genuinely one of the best experiences of my life and I am so glad I booked it. I arrived about 1.25 hours early to poke around Marina Vallarta and they let me use the restroom early. I poked around and saw many friendly iguanas near the pier, so friendly the business owners picked flowers so I could feed them. They gave us a detailed class on the turtle species and anatomy. We packed up and headed out, along the way our tour guide offered us snacks and drinks and pointed out the crocodiles along the golf course and stopped for us to photograph. He was very very kind, personable and knowledgeable. We walked along the beach where he was able to show us crocodile tracks, crab and turtle tracks. When we got to the camp, he showed us where the eggs hatch and brought out the baby’s. He gave us ample time to photograph and video them before handing them to us. I really appreciated him photographing me with my baby turtles as I traveled alone. The release was incredible. On our way back, we were able to see a turtle laying eggs which is very rare. He let us take photos with him shining the red light. Then we walked back and drove back to EcoTours where he called me a taxi and I left! I would absolutely recommend this to any and everyone.

Best activity in PV and EcoTours is the best!
This is my second time going and it was just as incredible as the first time. EcoTours makes it all so easy. They blend education and experience perfectly. It’s a truly magical experience. We even saw a Turtle on the beach actively laying eggs in our walk back to the van. Our guide made sure everyone stayed a respectable distance away and use red light so as not to disturb her but allowing people to get pictures. And they alerted the Turtle Camp so they could come protect the nest. They don’t just call the talk of ecotourism they live it. And the guide is top notch. I 100% recommend!

Hop on hop off private tour
We had Christian as our host guide on the bus. It turned out my wife and I were the only ones on the bus for the 3+hours, so Christian acted as our private tour guide. We had adequate time at each stop and he gave descriptions and history of everything we were seeing. Great guy. We had the best time. We saw a lot and would rate the HOHO a 10 out of 10.
