Sylvia as amazing. We had such a great time on the food tour and we tried some amazing foods. She kept us entertained and gave us a little bit of info on every restaurant, plus some history of puerto Vallarta. I definitely recommend

Excellent tour and great exploration of he city. The eight stops on the tour were all so good it was hard to pick just one that was the best - and they were all IYKYK and family run restaurants so great to get out of the more touristic restaurants. Highly recommend doing your first day in destination, as we went back to some of the restaurants visited on the tour later in the week .
