"From the moment we met, Maria's warm personality and passionate knowledge of local cuisine made everyone feel welcome and excited for the adventure ahead. Maria isn't just a tour guide; she's a storyteller. Her deep connections with local vendors and restaurant owners provided us with authentic experiences that would be impossible to discover on our own. We were treated like family at each stop, with special dishes prepared just for our group. Maria was attentive to everyone's dietary restrictions and preferences, ensuring each person had an equally amazing experience. If you're looking to truly understand Puerto Vallarta through its food, Maria's tour is an absolute must. Her passion for her hometown and its culinary heritage shines through in every aspect of the experience. You'll leave with a full stomach, wonderful memories, and a deeper appreciation for this beautiful destination."

"Hesli did a great job showing us all over town, sharing history and culture. We enjoyed seeing the authentic spots and learning new things!"

"Maria is simply the best! As a group weve been coming to PVR for 20+ years and thought we had explored most everything but she shared amazing places with us that we had never seen! She was charming, knowledgeable, and we feel like we now have a life long friend here in PVR! "

"My Puerto Vallarta food tour was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Maria, was fantastic – so friendly, easy-going, and knowledgeable. She took us to hidden gems, where we tasted incredible, authentic local food. Every bite was delicious! Maria also shared fascinating insights about the city and its food culture. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Maria as your guide. It was a highlight of my trip!"

"Jessica was great from the start to the end. She looked after any dietary issues that might occur, gave great tastings of the Mexico cruising, and added in her personal knowledge of the area."

"My wife and I had the most amazing time on a walking tour with Maria. It did not feel like one of those tours where you are constantly being talked at but more like a stroll around PV with an old friend. Maria just made it so easy!! Maria knows the area so well and also took us for the best fish and shrimps tacos we have ever come across. Maria even came with me to the pharmacy to help translate and was more than happy to continue the tour in pouring rain. We loved this experience and highly recommend Maria!!"

"Maria was an excellent tour guide, and a great conversationalist. We learned a lot about local culture and cuisine. She specifically set up a day to show us more than just tacos, but I'm sure if you asked, she can find you the most delicious tacos... as everything we had that afternoon was delicious!"

"Wow! We had so much fun and learned so much about this beautiful city with Maria. She was so friendly and accommodating, answering endless questions, and showing beautiful and hidden things we would never have found ourselves. We got to try ‘tuba’, a local drink made using palm trees, and enjoys wonderful lunch nestled amongst trees along the river. Lots of knowledge of art and local culture, a foodie, and so evidently passionate about Puerto Vallarta, Maria was *exactly* what you hope to find in the ideal local tour guide. We hated to part ways but will be excited to let her show us other new things in the future! 11 stars ⭐️ !!"

"Maria did a great job sharing her local cuisine and unique and delicious dishes with our family. She catered to our tastes and spice levels as well as some diversity of tastes in our group. We loved the experience and were so glad to try new dishes that we hadn’t had before. Everyone in our group loved it. Thanks Maria!!"
