Denver Group 2026 - Make sure you have money for shopping and the flea market, tipping and drinks at the restaurant and botanical gardens. And of course the friendly fun tours guides. Wear your sunscreen and glasses.

What a blast! - The 4 of us had a blast! Highly recommended! Make sure there is at least one in your group that can drive a standard transmission. No complaints, everything about this trip was awesome! The Botanical Gardens, the Tequila Tasting, Lunch, and Snorkeling. Chris was the best leader with great energy. There were 7 other cars and everyone had fun.

Best tour for Puerto Vallarta - We booked this tour for our first trip to Puerto Vallarta and were arriving via cruise ship so our time in port was limited. Our trip was also shortly after the cartel violence, so we were a bit nervous to begin with however the tour guides were very friendly and helpful and at no time did we feel unsafe. The botanical gardens were beautiful; the tequila tasting was delicious - definitely try the chocolate! The restaurant food was amazing and fresh and the terrace had a beautiful view of the ocean. Snorkeling was fun; we saw a lot of colorful fish and the captain took us past the site of the film Blue Iguana. The captain had his two young sons on board helping and learning the business. In fact, every stop was family owned and run (except the botanical gardens.) Overall, the cost of the trip is well worth the tour value and the chance to see old town PV and some of the countryside in such a short time was priceless.
Book it - you won't be sorry!

Super fun way to explore PV! - This tour was so much fun! The cars are super fun and make for a nice breeze in this hot weather.
The guides are super friendly, helpful, good energy!
The stops are great. We really enjoyed the Botanical Garden and the food at the lunch stop was delicious and the view was amazing! We went out on the boat ride to Los Arcos and that was great. We could see the fish from the boat.
This tour is a great way to see and experience PV! We had a really fun day!

Wonderful Day touring Puerto Vallarta - Christian and his crew did a wonderful job of making us feel welcomed and comfortable riding these fun Sun Buggies.
They are not like driving a cadaliac, but wind in your hair driving the city and country streets, they are sooooo much fun. The designated stops were wonderful with just the right amount of time at each.
the pictures we bought were AMAZING, not just us on the buggy but candid shots all around our tour, the snorkeling was amazing, almost as good as some scuba dives I've been on
Christian was very personable and made the trip memoriable

Awesome 5 Hour Buggy Excursion - This was an awesome 5.5 hour tour that included the Botanical Gardens, Tequilla Factory/tasting, seaside lunch, and a short boat/snorkeling trip! Chris was an great guide and led us throughout the day. The cars ran mostly OK, if there were any issues they have a mechanic in trail to remedy the situation. You'll spend a few minutes at a roadside trinket stand...of course. Then there's about an hour to walk the Botanical Gardens, about 45 mins at the Tequilla Factory, roughly and hour for lunch, and finish with a 45 min boat ride. Navigating through the PVR downtown traffic can be nerve wracking at times, so be careful! This is not an off-roading adventure. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend!
