Great day with Raul and Hector!
The trip didn't get started on the brightest of notes when our guide Rail notified us that Downtown will be closed due to it being the independence day. It wasn't his fault, but we were excited to tour downtown and walk the Malecon. But they took us a different church when we told us we were excited to go to our Lady of Guadalupe church and accommodated us every turn. Hector was very funny and it was a great duo keeping us company and explaining everything. Highly recommended. Beautiful drive to the restaurant and the food was fabulous. Didn't even know there were going to be animal showings and we enjoyed that immensely. We got lucky with our guide and driver and hope this is just the standard experience for all to enjoy.

Amazing Private Tour of Puerto Vallarta!!
Fernando was amazing! He picked is up right at the cruise terminal and gave us a quick rundown of the itinerary. We were able to tell him what we were interested in, and he tailored some of the stops just for us. The birria taco place he took us when we asked for great tacos was also fantastic (we went twice during the tour)! He was extremely knowledgeable about the city, was able to answer all our questions, and just really made the city seem like a fun, welcoming place. With a group of four, the price was perfect and could not be beat. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Puerto Vallarta!

Puerto Vallarta: Private Swim & Snorkel Yacht Tour w/Open Bar

Chuck's 60th Birthday!!
This was my husband's and my 2nd cruise!! First the night-time cruise and then a private cruise for one of our best friend's 60th Birthday!!What A Blast We Had!! After we were on-board thia Beautiful Yacht, we were introduced to the staff, explained where everything was, and offered our first cocktail and snacks before we ever got out of the Marina.We were shown sea turtles that were frolicking above the water for a few minutes. We snorkeled in this Beautiful Inlet and also relaxed on their huge Lily Pad float. We ate lunch while we relaxed on a Beautiful Sunny Day!!They took us over to the Los Arcos Rocks and watched the numerous species of birds flying on and off these huge rocks. The Captain even positioned the boat so that we could look through the cave of the rock through to the other side. You can see these rocks while driving along Highway 200 but it is nothing compared to being up close and personal.The 3 person crew were Great!! We never had a chance to want for anything before they were bringing it to us or answering an endless list of questions about the Bay and many of the Sea Creatures which inhabit it full-time to others (Whales particularly) that only come for the Winter Season so that the females can have their Babies in the safety of the Bay and fatten them up for their return trip to Alaska.All-in-all, I would highly recommend this Cruise, the Sunset Cruise, or any others that they offer!! Already considering the Whale Watching Cruise next!!

Sayulita & San Pancho: Private Day Trip from Puerto Vallarta
ramonamT2037EQ, Jul 2026
Our day with Obi Tours
Our day with Obi Tours was one of the absolute highlights of our week in Puerto Vallarta!We booked the private Sayulita and San Pancho tour for our group of six, and from the moment Obi and Elizabeth picked us up in their clean, comfortable, air-conditioned van, we knew we were in good hands.Throughout the day, they shared so much knowledge about Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, and the places we visited. Their passion for what they do really shines through, and they made every stop interesting and enjoyable.One of our favorite surprises was a stop at a roadside fruit stand where they had arranged a tasting of several local fruits. It was such a fun experience that we never would have found on our own.The tequila tasting was another unforgettable part of the day. It was entertaining, informative, and honestly featured the best tequila we’ve ever had! We learned so much and had a great time.In Sayulita, they took us to a wonderful beachfront restaurant before giving us free time to explore the town at our own pace. We also loved visiting beautiful San Pancho.One of the most thoughtful touches was that Elizabeth took photos throughout the entire tour—both candid and posed—and shared them with us afterward at no extra charge. It allowed us to simply enjoy the day while knowing the memories were being captured.What really sets Obi Tours apart is that this didn’t feel like a typical tour. It felt like spending the day with two wonderful people who genuinely love sharing their home and culture with their guests.If we’re fortunate enough to visit Puerto Vallarta again, we’ll absolutely be booking another tour with Obi and Elizabeth. They offer several different experiences, and we can’t wait to see more of the area with them.Thank you both for making our vacation so memorable. We highly recommend Obi Tours to anyone looking for a fun, informative, and truly personal experience in Puerto Vallarta!

This was a fun tour experience! The tour guides knew their Puerto Vallarta history and shared relevant stories from the the past to current times. There are a lot great and fun things coming to PV and Obi Tours will be a great addition to any vacation plans! They had great energy and attitude. They were able to answer our questions and provide a safe and comfortable travel experience. They even gave us a small cake as a gesture to a birthday we were celebrating! Highly recommend Obi Tours!

Thanks Dani & Ricardo!
Our guide Dani and our boat captain Ricardo were the best. We were supposed to be a group of 5, but the other 3 people never showed up so my wife and I basically had a private tour. Dani and Ricardo were very friendly and they did an awesome job of taking care of us at every part of the trip. It was the highlight of our stay thanks to them and we would absolutely do it again. Next time we’re bringing our whole family and asking for Dani and Ricardo.

100% Recommended Tour
If you’re looking for a truly unforgettable experience in Puerto Vallarta, this is the tour to book. We wanted something beyond the typical tourist excursion, and this exceeded every expectation. From snorkeling in beautiful, crystal-clear water to exploring hidden spots you would never find on your own, every part of the day felt like an adventure.What really made the experience exceptional was our guide. He was incredibly thoughtful, knowledgeable, and passionate about the area.The entire day had such a local, off-the-beaten-path feel, which is exactly what we were hoping for. We never felt rushed, and every stop felt unique and special.This was easily one of the highlights of our trip and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. I would recommend this tour without hesitation to anyone visiting Puerto Vallarta who wants an authentic adventure and memories they’ll never forget.

Bernardo was great and let us set the pace. He was friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. We didn’t even realize we were getting food when we booked, and the food was delicious. A nice surprise. We made it to 4 breweries and would definitely go back to two of them - Monzon and Los Cuentos. We would highly recommend this tour. Oh, and a nicely appointed van with AC! A great way to spend an afternoon.

Awesome time!
Excellent time and a great adventure. The crew is engaging and very kind and it was a great time! I have one daughter who is afraid of heights and the other is a major thrill seeker, both were extremely comfortable and enjoyed the trip. The group leaders did a wonderful job helping to ensure everyone felt safe and confortable while also having a great time. Everyone was very engaged and practiced safety. There is a nice river pool and water slides and swings at the end of the trip and included is also some animals to pet, hold or just visit. There is also a restaurant on site and the food was absolutely delicious. Great staff and we felt very safe. There are lockers for your bags, there are bathrooms and changing rooms available if you want to swim afterwards. There is also water stops along the zip line trails which was great because it was hot! Edgar, Alexis, Fernando, Chica and all the rest of the crew were fun, funny, and made it a great experience! Will recommend to all friends and family traveling to Puerto Vallarta

Had an amazing time on our boat day in Puerto Vallarta! The boat had plenty of space for our group and could comfortably fit our group without feeling cramped. Daniel was an incredible captain — super friendly, accommodating, aesthetically pleasing and tailored the entire itinerary exactly to what we wanted instead of doing a generic tour. He really made the experience feel personalized and stress-free.Highly recommend booking with Daniel if you’re looking for a fun, smooth experience in PVR.
