I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Vallarta Roots and Pepe! 🇲🇽🌴We booked round-trip transportation from Puerto Vallarta Airport to Iberostar Playa Mita, which is about an hour away. We had six ladies on the way to the resort, and Pepe arrived with a spacious van where everyone had plenty of room for themselves, luggage, and personal items.From the very beginning, his communication was excellent. He was extremely prompt and gave us very clear instructions on exactly where to meet him at the airport. After walking outside into the August heat and humidity, we were especially grateful for the cold towels, bottled water, and delicious welcome drinks waiting for us. It was such a thoughtful touch!On our departure day, Pepe picked us up exactly at 8:30 AM, as promised. He helped load all of our luggage and, along the way, shared so much local information about the areas we were driving through. What started as transportation turned into so much more.He took us around Puerto Vallarta and stopped at several local highlights so we could take everything in and get some great photos. We also stopped at a little shopping area where we were able to pick up trinkets for ourselves and our families. The prices were very reasonable, and they had practically everything you could want—from souvenirs to candy and ice cream. It ended up being a perfect little one-stop shopping stop.He then took us farther along the coast to see more of Puerto Vallarta and really made the most of our time together. He kept a close eye on the clock and got us back to the airport with plenty of time to check our luggage and get through security without feeling rushed.And I have to mention his driving! 😂 Some of the cobblestone streets in Puerto Vallarta are incredibly narrow, yet Pepe navigated them with impeccable driving skills. I felt completely comfortable the entire time.August was HOT and extremely humid, so having a comfortable, air-conditioned van to return to throughout the day was honestly a blessing. It allowed us to see so much more without spending the entire day walking around in the heat.By the end of the day, Pepe honestly felt less like our transportation driver and more like a really good friend who happened to be showing us around Puerto Vallarta. ❤️I’ll actually be returning to the area with my family in November, and I already know I’ll be reaching out to Vallarta Roots again. This time, I’d love for Pepe to take us to some of the places I didn’t get to explore as much and show my family more of the area.If you’re visiting Puerto Vallarta and want more than just a ride from point A to point B, I highly recommend Vallarta Roots. The hospitality, communication, local knowledge, comfort, and personal attention really made our experience special.Thank you, Pepe, for taking such great care of us and making our time in Puerto Vallarta even more memorable! 🇲🇽
