Bernardo took us to 6 different long-time family owned businesses across the different neighborhoods of PV. All the stops were delicious, from the lamb barbacoa tacos served birria style to the pork belly tacos with chicharron and pickled onions to the homemade sorbet and ice cream. Shrimp tacos served with hibiscus margaritas (drinks other than water are included in the price) were a big hit with all of us. Really fun to see how tortillas are made at an open air tortilleria, and to taste them hot off the flattop - so tender! In the summer heat, it was a pleasure to drive from location to location in a super clean and comfortable air-conditioned van...and Bernardo had a wealth of knowledge about PV's history and neighborhoods. Terrific day!
Wonderful experience. Our guide Bernardo was terrific and very accommodating helping my husband who has a little trouble walking. Loved the variety of tacos. This was not just taco Tuesday in the states. You really get to experience the wide and delicious cuisine of Mexico. Highly recommend. We will do another tour when we return in a few months.
We had a great experience on our trip to Sayulita .Would highly recommend this trip if in the Puerto Vallarta area. Our guide Bernardo was fantastic, very knowledgeable about the area and the different establishments. We have been on several food tours over the years and my wife and I agreed that this was the best one we have ever been on. Great town to visit and even better food.
Hi Matt, Thank you for the amazing review! We're honored to hear that the Sayulita tour was the best food tour you and your wife have experienced. Bernardo is passionate about sharing the local culture, history, and food scene, and we're thrilled he helped make your day so memorable. We appreciate the recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another culinary adventure soon! Saludos, Paul M.
Wonderful guide and driver! Went to 7 different locations, all family-owned and all were amazing! I am mobility-challenged and doing the tour by road was perfect for me and my family. Joanna was a wonderful guide and really took good care of us. My entire family claimed this was their favorite tour of our 8-day cruise. Excellent overall.
Thank you for the wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that the Vallarta By Road tour was a perfect fit for your family and that the minimal walking made the experience comfortable and enjoyable. We hope to welcome you back to Puerto Vallarta again soon! Saludos, Paul M.
Delicious neighborhood foods and very informative guide! Bernardo is a very good driver!
The guide was very knowledgeable about the neighborhoods and which restaurants were good. He was also very nice
Great tour for the not so mobile I also feel staying cool helps you eat more. There is so much good food to try. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable. He knew all the families of the restaurants we visited. The pork place was unreal. Never had any pork belly so yummy and we are from Texas. It’s a relatively new restaurant and we will be back. Great way to try places off the beaten path and where locals eat.
Joana was an absolutely amazing guide. We went to 7 different locations and had incredible food. Our whole group said we would do another tour. 10/10 would recommend.
Four of us took the 2025 award winning food tour and thoroughly enjoyed it. Joann was our most enjoyable guide. History of the city and our 8 food stops made the trip special. DO NOT eat breakfast first if you take the three hour tour starting at 10:30. I just hope we’re hungry tomorrow. Steve (USA)
Wonderful guide in Bernardo, full of local knowledge and history. The food was fabulous, each a unique spot but the stand-out was definitely the barbacoa taco! Highly recommend this company and this tour.
