Worth it! - The whole experience was so nice! It was nice having a guide to take you to the places and show you little shops you probably wouldn’t stop at. The sopes were super good and Sayulita had so many street vendors. Totally worth it

Wonderful experience - Such a wonderful tour. The guides were so knowledgable and the stops unforgettable. So much fun! One point of note was the challenge finding public bathrooms. At the places that did have public washrooms you were charged money to use them and given the amount of toilet paper you could use.

Great tour with lots of free time to explore! - This is a great trip to two beautiful cities. There is so much history to learn, food to try, and sites to see in any place we stopped. Our guide, Daniel, was very well educated on all and led us on a great tour. Bonus: We tried fruits and snacks at a roadside vendor and Sopes at a restaurant founded by an innovator during the pandemic. Both were amazing!

Great visit to two beautiful towns along with unique food samples! - This is a great trip to two very dynamic little towns with so much to see and learn. Our guide, Daniel, was very informative with all of the history of the two towns, and all of the history of the roads and surrounding areas. We had 1.5hrs of free time in both towns to explore, shop, and/or go down to the beach. Bonus 1: We stopped at a roadside market and received 10+ samples of different fruits and candies to try. We also got to see the owner processing a jack fruit for his candies. Learning about the many local fruits that you otherwise wouldn't hear about or try on your own was a liked by all! Bonus 2: Sopes at Su Pancha Madre in San Pancho. This is a dish we have not seen in P.V. and to hear the story from the owner, Mar, about how and when he started this business and how he changed the traditional sope ingredients was amazing. On top of all this, he started the only International Sope Festival that attracts chefs from world-wide and grows each year. We were given a traditional sope, only eaten by Aztec kings, when they were first created. We were also given a meat sope with a very tender flat iron steak strips. Both were amazing! This is a must see/do trip for anyone visiting P.V.!

Go if you want a taste of local culture! - Vallarta Adventures WAY undersells this outing! It was superb! Our guide, "Chema" was a fount of information about the culture, history, native plants and other facts of the region. He played the native flute and conveyed "pride of place" and the warm and welcoming sensibility of local culture. Both he and the driver, Christian, were always friendly, attentive, and helpful. The food offerings were varied and tasty and the time--6 hours--was enough to tire us, but maybe just shy of what we would have liked. We will be back for more of these two special towns, San Francisco (Pancho) and Sayulita! Congrats to Vallarta Adventures!

Sayulita…great day trip! - Sayulita is a quaint beach town about 1 hour from Nuevo Vallarta. Great food and drinks on the beach at a reasonable price. Lots of shopping, restaurants and bars in town. Town area is only a block or two from the beach. Everything is within walking distance.

Nice to learn about the history and future of each town. - Really enjoyed the ECO Stop for lunch at ChuMuk! Go Compost and Recycling Team! Sayulita is busy but worth the stop - Surfer town. San Pancho was more chill - Yoga, Recycling and giving back to the community by helping single moms and creating a safe place for kids to grow and explore.

Would book this again - This was a lot of fun. We preferred San Pancho to Sayulita as it was a smaller town but it felt like there was a lot more to see. We also booked on a Tuesday and there was a lovely flea market happening. Would recommend this as a great way to see some smaller beachy towns around PV / and for a different experience. Our guide was great as well

Touristy towns - This was an opportunity to see further countryside and quieter beaches. Our guide, Ramon, gave interesting insights of the towns. While the towns were a refreshing change from PV, they still were very touristy. Great guide & bus driver.

Fun towns, get a taxi yourself - Sayulitas and San Pancho are great towns to visit. But going on this tour was a little painful. The first hour was wasted just picking up people from different hotels. We also felt like we didn’t have enough time in each of those towns, and had to hurry back to the shuttle. Save your money and just get a taxi to take you to those towns (which are worth going to)!
