FANTASTIC day in Mazatlan! - Moses gave us an incredible private tour of Mazatlán and truly made it one of our favorite stops of the entire cruise. As a lifelong local, his knowledge of the city, culture, and history was amazing, and he shared it all with us! Any question we had, he had an answer:) He was super friendly, flexible, and really tailored the day around what we wanted to see and do, which made the experience feel personal. We felt so lucky to get Moses! The value for what you get is unbeatable. The beach club he took us to was fantastic. It was quaint, relaxing, and felt high end without the high price tag. Food and Beverage prices there were very reasonable. Overall, an unforgettable experience and I would absolutely recommend Moses to anyone visiting Mazatlán, especially cruise passengers looking to make the most of their day.

Great Experience - The trip was great! Had a good time exploring the city as we went to the beach club. The club itself was amazing. Great views, area was clean and well maintained, food was incredible (highly recommend the burger) and beach is clean! Jose was an awesome guide! He was very personable, knew the area well and told us the best places for photos and tourist areas that won't trap you. His car is very unique, plays great music and works at your pace. Really cares about making your trip memorable.

Awesome Excursion! - We had an amazing time! Our guide, Gilberto, was fun and knew a lot about Mazatlan. He made sure we got to see everything we wanted. We asked for a local taco place, and he took us to a great open air restaurant. He then took us to Shekinah beach club and took the time to show us around, even though he didn’t work there. It was so relaxing and the strawberry margaritas were awesome.

Fall in love with Mazatlan - This was an awesome tour. Moises was our tour guide and he was amazing. Moises promised to make us fall in love with Mazatlan and that he did. He took us all around the city, explained all the sites and was our personal photographer. We did some shopping along with Tequila tasting. Moises made sure we were safe and assisted us with communicating with the locals. Our last stop was the beach club. A beautiful serene paradise hidden just off the street. Moises got us checked in and situated for the last couple hours of our tour. When our time at the beach club was up, Moises was right there to pick us up. We felt like princesses in a horse drawn carriage for the day. A huge thank you to Moises. Can’t wait to come back and do it again.

Our guide Oscar was the best! - Depending on the number booking with this group you can either get the van or in our case a open air style vehicle for four. We were the only ones it appears that have booked for the day so our guide Oscar gave us a very personal and laid back tour. We changed schedule and did many other sites that weren't part of the description but were things that my wife and I were interested in. My wife tripped and fell and scraped both her knees and twisted her ankle. Oscar got us to a pharmacy so I could get supplies to clean her up and allow us to continue our day unfettered. The beach was where we stayed up last night was one of the best I've been to. Not busy at all and had no problem finding quieter area to just sit back and enjoy the beach and taking the sun.

Local city tour - We booked this thinking it was a group tour. Appears that they sub contracted to a local 3rd party independent taxi driver who drove just the 2 of us around to each location. Not what was advertised and we expected a group tour. Driver was very nice but you could have just walked up to a taxi driver and got the same results. Driver asked if we wanted a longer tour of the city for additional costs we said no we would stick with what we originally booked.
