My friends and I greatly enjoyed this excursion. The tour guides were fun and kept us entertained the entire time. They were easy to get along with and even joined in on the fun. The only downfall was not having very much time to snorkel because we left shore an hour late. Overall, though, it was worth the $20. We... More

Actually won this excursion for the day. The staff works "extremely" hard to get the everybody involved. Started slow, but improved while it went on. The destination is nothing special, but it does have a decent beach to lounge around in the afternoon, with a few activities you could do. Our cruise was predominately mexican families, and we had a... More

Our day on the Bora Bora was a serious low point to our vacation. I don't think I can add much more than the other reviews, which paid a really clear picture of this awful excursion - fruit and sugary "orange" drink for breakfast, a really quick snorkel in cloudy water, LOUD music, and adult themed games pretty much sums...

We went on this tour hoping for an amazing snorkeling adventure, which is what was advertised. The boat was old and poorly kept, barthrooms had no light or running water, the crew made No Effort Whatsoever so make sure anyone had a good time. In fact my mom who is fairly adventurous was rushed out of the boat for the... More

I can only repeat what the other reviews say. It is TERRIBLE. I paid 300 pesos, and it was not worth it! Also, it cost 15 pesos more to get from the pier to the boat (I asked for my money back and the cost was suddenly included). Worse we were told we would have 30 minutes at Los Arcos.... More

I have travelled to Vallarta every August and it had been a long time since I had went on a boat cruise. It was my nephews first time to Puerto Vallarta so my husband and I thought a booze cruise would be fun for our son and nephew. The name of the Bora Bora should be changed to Boring Boring!!!!...

Our hotel sold us this excursion for $42 USD/person. Thinking it was great deal for continental breakfast, lunch, snorkeling in Los Arcos, a hike to a waterfall, and a relaxing beach, we eagerly signed up! What a mistake. Getting to Marina Vallarta (the departure point) was easy. Once there, you must pay an additional $1.50 USD in port fees. There... More

We were sold on this cruise by the excursion booking desk at our hotel. It seemed like a good deal at $30US per person, and purported to include breakfast, lunch, open bar, snorkeling, kayaking, hiking, and access to secluded beaches. It was pretty easy to reach the maritime port (across from Walmart, easy to reach via bus). We had to... More
