Fantastic afternoon adventure! - This adventure starts out pretty... interesting. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our afternoon with Eric visiting Dulce Vista. He is an excellent tour guide, friendly, talkative, informative, knowledgeable. We were really happy to have spent time with him. Dulce Vista is fantastic, the Tequila was delicious, and the cooking class was super fun & tasty too. We wouldn't have changed a thing. Continued success, we recommend this adventure highly.
Sincerely, Bill & Ursula

A fun day learning how to make Mexican food in a beautiful setting. - We had such a fun day with Eric making Mexican food in a beautiful location. The group size was perfect
Eric made everything fun and is so knowledgeable…Don’t plan on eating supper after you get back to your hotel! The margaritas were delicious and kept coming.
This activity is out of Puerto Vallarta up in the mountain area and is beautiful.
The tequila tasting was fun and they had many different ones.
Relaxing after in pool area ended a perfect day.

So fun! - I really enjoyed it! Our host was Eric and he was such a good time and pretty funny. We got picked up in a van with AC and drove up to this resort where we did tequila tasting first and then the cooking class was after. The resort was beautiful. Unlimited margaritas- we made salsa, guac, chicken enchiladas and pork tostadas. Plenty of food and unlimited drinks!! The last hour , we were able to hang out, which some swam and others just laid out near the pool. I went solo but the group I ended up with was cool and I had fun! I recommend this to those who kind of want to get away and do something different!

A fun and unique afternoon - I leaned quite a bit about tequila - this was wonderful tequila that you won't find in liquor stores at home!
This was a very hands on experience. The food we made was not complicated so you can replicate it at home. And it was delicious! Vera made sure our margarita glasses were full. When done, we relaxed on this stunning property in the mountains. Bring your bathing suits! Our host is excited about his plans here. Check it out!

10/10!!! We’d come back and do it all again!! - Our guide Nector was amazing! Super friendly, informative and entertaining. The food we made and the snacks we had along the way (fresh tortilla and fresh cheese at the tortilla factory) were so delicious. The tequila tasting was top notch, we ended up buying a few bottles. And the venue was stunning.

Fabulous Experience - Eric was our guide and chef and we had a wonderful time!!! We ate so much great food that we were too full to have dinner that night! The facility was lovely, very peaceful, and our lessons about tequila and the tasting of tequila was very informative. My only regret was that when we got our cab back to the hotel from the Marina, we forgot to give Eric his tip—he had another appointment so we just rushed off and forgot! It was a great day and experience.

Not worth the trip - This was an excursion from a ship. The road is TERRIBLE. Bumpy and twisty. The driver crossed himself on the way. VERY loud music out by the pool. Cooking class was ok, but outside and too many flies. The tequila tasting was very good and informative. Not worth the hassle of getting there, though - it is an hour from the ship.
