Highly Recommend! - Highly recommend this tour! Gia was very informative and kept our group engaged and interested in the stories and local lore that she shared with us. It felt very personal to her and we felt her passion and connection to the history which made all the difference. A highlight for us was walking through the old town streets and seeing all the old buildings and hearing about their spooky origins.

Great , historical tour. - We enjoyed this tour. It was more than a ghost tour, it was a historical tour of Puerto Vallarta. Gia spoke perfect English and was knowledgeable of the area, since her family has been here for a long time. I would recommend this tour.

Great experience in Puerto Vallarta to learn about the local history and ghost stories, and a really good guide. - The tour was so cool I learned a lot about the local history and heard some really cool ghost stories. Turns out I was staying right next to one of the haunted places we covered. I’d say my favourite part of the tour was our guide Gia, she’s charismatic, knowledgeable, and most importantly has a good taste in music. I would absolutely recommend doing this tour if you’re in Puerto Vallarta.

Best Vallarta Tour - Gia is one heck of a host! I go to Vallarta often and have done many tours along the years and this ranks high in my books. While I know plenty about the city’s history, Gia finds a way to put life into the way she explains things and it was beautiful getting to learn more. 10/10 would recommend!
