OMG!! it was a fantastic time. The crew was great, they had entertainment on the boat ride to the island and back. The island was remarkable. It was full of fun of water sports or you can relax in the sun. Their staff worked hard to make sure we were having fun and enjoying the lunch that was included. It reminded me of the tv show called Gilligan's Island . Don't miss this event. Once you get there, you don't wanna come back! Definitely a must do excursion.😊😊

You should go ride a horse!
This was so much fun! I haven’t ridden a horse in 30 years, but I felt very safe and supported, and it was a really good experience. The horses were gentle and healthy — not at all dispirited like you see at some tours. Our guide Saul was wonderful — funny and friendly and really good at taking pics for us! The food was delicious, and the tequila tasting was top-notch.

Best horseback experience
What an incredible experience! The horseback ride was absolutely amazing, and Ricardo, our guide, made it even more special. From riding through the river to exploring the beautiful mountain hills, every part of the adventure was unforgettable. Ricardo was exceptional. He took the time to share some of the history of the area with us and brought us to some truly majestic spots with breathtaking views. We were constantly amazed by the natural beauty surrounding us. The tour lasted about two hours, which was the perfect amount of time to really enjoy the scenery and the experience without ever feeling rushed. The price was very reasonable for everything that was included, and we felt it was an excellent value for the experience. The entire ride felt authentic, peaceful, and adventurous at the same time. The beautiful surroundings, combined with Ricardo's knowledge, friendliness, and attention to us, made the experience even better. Thank you, Ricardo, for making this such a memorable experience for us. This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip, and we would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable horseback riding adventure!

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.

I read all the reviews first and they had the best ones, and all the reviews were right. Definitely come on their boat the Mona Lisa with them!

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!

great!
Martin was such a vibe and obviously well trained with the horses! our tequila guy was amazing with the information he provided, you can tell he loves his job. the food was great & learning how to make our own salsa was fun!! thank youuu. now the only i wished was different was maybe spending like 5 minutes with the horse we rode lol i think it’s important to build that relationship.. i do understand that cuts into time but as a horse owner i know that relationship and trust is important.

Puerto Vallarta Luxury Yacht Tour: Snorkeling, Open Bar and Lunch

Fun party boat, snorkel lite!
Totally my bad for not taking the description literally. I expected this to be a snorkel heavy adventure. It is a booze cruise...but a well planned, fun one. I never would pick a booze cruise activity on purpose but it was a fun accident. There was only one brief snorkel time in the whole 5 hours. It was okay, not for experienced snorkelers or divers, more for people who want to try it out and have a fun morning on a boat. The tour guide had razzle dazzle and was very fun. The whole crew was very nice and polite. The lunch was fantastic, the drinks were excellent. I ain't never been on a yacht before, so that alone was fun and silly. You'll definitely have a good time!

Vallarta Botanical Garden and Tequila Tasting from Puerto Vallarta
561alexiar, Sep 2026
Great experience overall
Included very nice hike(optional), moderate difficulty for average person. Trails were slippery but very clearly marked. Garden was extremely beautiful. Guide was amazing, photographer very good. Tequila was very good, a little pricerier than expected for the optional purchase. Lunch was delicious but if not choosing the lunch included menu be aware you will be forced to get food at the same restaurant(pretty pricy as well compared to other restaurants in town) due to remote location.

An experience of a lifetime!!
What am absolutely INCREDIBLE experience! We got to see a momma turtle lay eggs and rescue the eggs - so beautiful to witness and feels great knowing we could help! Eddie was SUCH a great person and taught us so much. He's a friend for life now.I can't recommend this experience more! And if you decide to do the baby turtle release instead/ in addition, make sure to book it with the turtle camp directly (not another tour company) as that's how the organizing raises funds to do this vital rescue work!
