Puerto Vallarta Night Cruises

We had an absolutely wonderful experience! Our guide, Pablo, and our boat captain, Ricardo, were both excellent. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the area and shared so much interesting information about the wildlife, birds, plants, and everything we were seeing along the way. From beginning to end, they made us feel like we were their number one priority.I was personally pretty nervous about getting into the water. I’m not someone who typically goes very far into water when I can’t see the bottom and add nighttime AND a cave to that, and I was definitely a little freaked out! 😂Pablo was incredibly patient, encouraging, and reassuring. He told me he would stay right beside me, and he absolutely did. I never felt pressured, and once I decided to get in, he made sure I felt safe the entire time. He was also constantly looking out for everyone else in our group while we were in the water. Because of his encouragement, I was able to experience something I probably would not have done otherwise and I’m so glad I did! It was such a cool experience, and everyone had an amazing time.Pablo’s care didn’t end when the tour was over either. He made sure arrangements were taken care of for each couple in our group and that everyone had a safe way to get back to their hotel.We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. If you have the opportunity, definitely ask for Pablo! He truly went above and beyond to make the entire experience safe, fun, informative, and memorable. And a huge thank you to Ricardo as well for taking such great care of us on the boat!

Our Guide Pablo was delightful and told a lot of wonderful stories and anecdotes. He also shared plant, bird and geological information. He was generous and kind and I would love to go on another tour with this Guide

I loved this excursion. The ride from Puerto Vallarta to the boat was a bit long, but pretty. But swimming with the light up algae was super amazing, a totally unique experience, and so much fun. The crew who took us were also very conscious of the environment, and making sure that we weren’t harming anything, and that we are safe. This would be great for family for a couple if you’re only going to the two of you.

So well done; so stunningly beautiful!

Ricardo was awesome and was very helpful he made the tour very fun and enjoyful same with pablo

What an amazing experience we even got to see dolphins!!! Our guide Pablo and the captain Ricardo were just the best!!!!!

Effrum was extremely cooperative and made the experience fun and enjoyable by playing oldies music and taking us out on the water. As a non-swimmer, I was initially a little apprehensive, but he helped me tremendously and made me feel comfortable while wading through the water.Overall, it was a great experience, and I would highly recommend Effrum to anyone looking for a fun and enjoyable time on the water.

Our bioluminescence tour experience from the beginning to the end was AMAZING!! I highly recommend touring with Pablo and his crew! Not only is he AWESOME, but he is very knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. He gets to know each and every person and asks what their expectations are of the tour. If you have any fears he will make sure and do his best to make you feel as comfortable as possible! If I have the opportunity to take another tour with Mismaloya Xtreme, I would want Pablo to be our tour guide!

We went on the tour with Efrain and had a wonderful experience as a family! He was very knowledgable, friendly, and helpful. The bioluminescence was beautiful to see, and there was even a stop before that on a gorgeous beach so we could all watch the sunset before heading out to snorkel

Me and my partner were hesitant to book tours at first, but are so glad we started with this one. Our guide Pablo and the rest of his team were very friendly and experienced. The ride there had AC and cold drinks and snacks were provided. It was an amazingly beautiful boat ride with birdwatching and stunning views of the sunset. Seeing the bioluminescence was magical, and my partner had the most amazing time swimming in it. Pablo and his team were very professional and we felt safe and cared for the entire time. Definitely recommend!!

I’m so glad we booked this activity. Swimming in bioluminescent waters has been on my bucket list for at least a decade. Not only did I get to cross this off of my list, but the experience was made all the more memorable by our seriously fun and knowledgeable guide, Pablo, the beautiful sunset cruise captained by Ricardo, and cool birds at Los Arcos.This evening excursion was well worth the booking fee and Uber from Bucerias to PV. My friends and I were lucky to have booked this while the waters are warm and a little cloudy, resulting in the coolest milky sparks from the bioluminescent plankton.You will obviously get wet while snorkeling in the open cave, so I would recommend packing a dry bag with a change of clothes and a towel if you don’t want to be in wet clothes afterwards.

Amazing Experience with Arnold the boat driver an guide Pablo. Both were a great team. Pablo was knowledgable and took great care to give us the infprmation on this tour. They had a great travel plan to reach the island and even made sure their van left us back to our destination.

This was an awesome adventure. The trip to and from the boat was interesting and would have been a bit scary if not for Efrain, the guide. Efrain was fun and communicative and made an amazing experience even more memorable. Being in the water and seeing the blue glow was like a disney movie.

Pablo is amazing!! Well worth the money. A must-do in PV.

Great night despite the weather. Got to snorkel in the dark in one of the sea coves at Los Arcos. Jonathan and Effrin made sure we were safe at all times. Very cool to see the plankton in the dark. A must do!!!

It was an unforgettable experience, the guide and the captain were always attentive to each of the people... a great, wonderful day, I recommend it 100%, the guide Efraín and Captain Ricardo were excellent at all times.
