Traveler reviews
Fun, informative and FULFILLING!
Amazing experience with our local guide, Al!!! Highly recommend. Just make sure to eat a light breakfast as suggested so you can fully enjoy all of the delicious food 😊
Overall, it was a great experience.
We enjoyed this tour because it allowed us to see a different part of PV. Joana was a great guide. She was accommodating and not only provided an explanation at every stop on the tour but along the walk as well. She had a great sense of humour as well. We also enjoyed meeting and getting to know a little about our fellow foodie. Our one gripe was the unusual start to the tour being the churro stand. It was an odd choice to start because it was a sweet taste. We thought that a savoury stop would have been better. And, we both found that our churros were browned too much but raw in the middle.
Wonderful Taste of Pitillal Food Tour
Our tour (food) guide Joana was awesome. She is such a wonderful person. Our tour consisted of my wife and I and we ate at about 7-8 places. Each one was sooooo good and the restaurant staff was inviting. We have now done this tour four times and each time we try several new restaurants and food items. Would definitely do this same tour again.
Loved the tour and part of the city!
We really enjoyed this tour. Miel was fantastic.
Wonderful Tour
Outstanding food tour of the non-touristy Pitillal area of Puerto Vallarta. Joana was an excellent guide and the food from fresh churros, to tacos, to ceviche to homemade tamales, to homemade popsicles was delicious. Highly recommend this tour.
