Good walk , Great acos - Great Taco Tour that stays in the Romantica Zone. That was the key to our choice. Karla was awessome and full of great information. We tried things and ate at places that we normaly would not have tried. More than just Tacos as we visited the Municipal Market where we learned about local shopping and the manufacturing of tortillas and the differences in them. Lots of info through the tour.

15/10! Highly recommend! - Our guide Alberto was amazing! He was very knowledgeable about Puerto Vallarta’s history as well as local food culture and we had a great time exploring the town together! He brought us cute bags as a souvenir for us to keep with a bottled water. He explained at the beginning of the tour that the tour comes with a lot food so we are not required to finish everything and we can just take a bite and leave the food if need be since vendors are aware that we’ll be eating a lot during the tour. Loved all the food we tried honestly and I loved how we visited more of the local mom and pop shops! The tour also gives you confidence to explore the town on your own so that’s another perk too! 1000000% recommended!

Wonderful walking taco tour - Ricky gave us a wonderful tour thru the Romantic Zone to 5 different taco stands, restaurants, bakery, market, and candy store. We enjoyed not only the various delicious tacos, but the history and culture he shared as well. We would definitely go again.

Enjoy the taco walk! - Ricky did a wonderful job informing us on history, culture, and of course the wonderful tacos we enjoyed. He led the two of us around the Romantic zone of Puerto Vallarta to 5 different taco stands/restaurants, markets, bakery, and candy store. Everything was great and we'd do it again.

Best tacos with Alberto! - I'm finally getting around to writing our review. We did the tour on our first day in PV. We had Alberto as our guide. He was fantastic! He gave us history of the area and food. The places we ate at were amazing! We would absolutely recommend doing the tour. We loved it so much! Thank you for a great time.

Karla is from PV, knows everyone and the taco tour was the best way to get to know the Romantic Zone - Karla with a K, is the best tour guide ever. We were inspired by her knowledge of every cuisine, tradition and vendors. We ran into more than 10 people that met her on a tour a year ago, a few months ago, and even from the day before AT THE TACO SHOPS she was showing us. So amazing. DO NOT eat breakfast, every one of us was full by the 5th taco, but we still ate them.
