Last Wednesday my wife and I had the privilege of having taken a tour to San Sebastian del Oestre. I say privilege because, our tour guide, Miguel, not only provided detailed information throughout the excursion, but gave us a history of Mexico. In addition to a trip to the silver mining town, we also stopped a local jewelry store where I was able to purchase a Mexican opal for the wife. We had a wonderful lunch in town that was part of the tour. We also had the opportunity to stop at a family-owned taquilla distiller. Although we got to taste the varieties of taquilla, we unfortunately were unable to purchase any because we only had carry-ons and not check-in bags. I also want to acknowledge our very fine driver, Daniel, who was an exceptional and safe driver. We strongly recommend you take this tour. I know the next time I return to Puerto Vallarta, I will schedule another tour with Riviera Tours.

Miguel and Jorge were exceptionally good in guiding and giving us city tour. Very knowledgeable and Jorge is a very good driver. Highly recommended.

Warmest people, beautiful location, and tequila. Ask for Signor Miguel Delgadillo, the tour guide. He will keep you safe, well hydrated, well fed, and entertained. Highly recommended.

The best part of the tour was the guide, David. He was very knowledgeable and personable. Kind of a grandfatherly type. The van was not comfortable because of very limited legroom. The air conditioning was adequate, however. There was not a lot to see in San Sebastian, although David really tried to give as much detail as possible on its history. The lunch was just OK, simple Mexican fare and nothing special. Plan appropriately because the lunch is not scheduled before 2 PM. The stops were average, the best being the delightful tequila distillery. There was not much to see at the coffee place, but bags of their coffee were reasonably priced. The jewelry shop was very expensive and the chocolate shop was a bust- not much selection and we were unable to see the chocolate making process I guess because of the late afternoon.

Take the tour, miguel and partner took us all over PV. The tour is worth its price . Both guide and driver are kind and trust worthy. Took the tour today with my wife and enjoyed it. Thank You Reviera tour for a safe and enjoyable tour of PV. Keep up the good work ..

This tour is very mediocre. you can actually give yourself a better tour of the board walk by exploring it at your own pace and take pictures at your own pace. Trying to get pictures of the big "Puerto Vallarta" attraction is next to impossible in a large group The bathroom break at the local government building is just uugh!!; Very dirty bathrooms. Then the walk to the Our Lady Of Guadalupe Church is one you can do on your own. They skip all the restaurants on the boardwalk to drive you miles away into a secluded corner for lunch where they claim you get the freshest sea food and chicken in town but be prepared to break the bank here. It is too expensive for what you get. BTW internet is spotty so if you plan to pay by card, be ready for some awkward situations. Card payments won't work if internet is down (which you get told about in the long bus trip there). Then over to the Tequilla distillery right across and boy oh boy! they see tourists and $$$$. You get a BS presentation and some sampling and then all they want to do is SELL!!!. Its definately not worth the $30 per person. If you have to go, skip the lunch and carry snacks to keep you going till you get back to your hotel. You'd be best served spending the lunch $$$ at the hotel for dinner. I'll give two dots as a courtesy to the guide.

Driver is excellent 5 start, and pleasant tour guide is pleasant and 5 star. However, we only went to 3 places: silver, leather, and candy store where we spent 25 min in each store. No other stores allowed for us to wander off to even when we were not interested in that store.

Great trip. Miguel is a good guide and Felipe was an excellent driver. Very detailed explanation of the city. Went above and beyond our expectations. The cost was worth it.

The tour overall was good! Adam/Adan was great, he was very engaging and fun. The Malecon walk was short but okay. The scenic ride to lunch and tequila tasting was great, good food too. Pro tip: if you're a foodie, skip the lunch option and order food directly from the restaurant, much more yummy options, but if you're a quickie, the lunch option included is okay as well. Thumps up! Keep it up.

When participating in the “City Tour” please try and get Afonso as your guide. A wonderful man and a wealth of knowledge about Puerto Vallarta and Mexico as a whole 😊

Three families, strangers at the start of the day, bonded over our shared disappointment from Riviera TT “City Tour” (aka sponsored shopping trip with mandatory stops at a jewelry, leather, and tequila store). We only had 15 minutes in actual Puerto Vallarta Malecon and shopping area… You had to be quick with your camera if you wanted a peek of the beach on the hwy drive to the Tequila place & restaurant, no slowing down or stops along the way! Turning lemons into lemonade, we ended the day with our own adventure, sharing street tacos in an alleyway. The restaurant they chose for us was more $$ we didn’t want to spend. I felt bad for the family with 3 young kids in tow - they were told that lunch was included, which it wasn’t. We made the best out of this #TourFail #PuertoVallarta

The tour was well worth the 20$/price. Our guide Miguel was very passionate and knowledgeable about the history of the city he grew up in. As a man in his 60’s he has seen the transition from a fishing town to a large city dominated by tourism. He shows you the different “faces” of the city, as well as the surrounding countryside along the coastal highway. The lunch, which we paid for separately at Gringo Jerry’s OK Corral, was delicious and enough food for two meals. Don’t be fooled by the name. Luis was a very good driver and also very friendly.

Great time, great food, great drinks and lots of information. We really enjoyed the day and we would do again. Thank you!

Omar and Alfonso were wonderdul. Very informative! We were given a very detailed history on our drive. The drive is far longer than the tour and it’s a very bumpy road with lots of curves. I did t care for the ride as it was to long . The mountain town was like an old western town. Thr tequila tour was informative. The silver and coffee tour were more to get you to buy stuff than a tour. I was looking forward to the coffee tour as I’ve been to them in other countries but they did not give a tour really. Alfonso just told us about it. The church was beautiful and a good piece to see. The lunch was good . It was a long ways for really not much . I wouldn’t go on this again or really recommend it. Since the drive is long , I would suggest to offer a bottle of water on the ride. When selling this tour I would tell the buyer that the ride is longer than the tour and that it’s a very bumpy twisty road. The guide and driver did a good job and me not liking the tour has nothing to do with them.

Highly recommend this city tour. After a convenient hotel pickup, we learned about the city from a professional guide while visiting sites like the Malecón, the Municipal Palace, Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, the artisans' market, and a tasting at a tequila distillary. We saw the Vallarta letters and other sculptures on the boardwalk. We also went to a jewelry store which sold beautiful silver and opal pieces. We had lunch at a hillside restaurant away from the city, near a beautiful river. We met the chef, Doña Rosa, and had a delicious fresh fish dinner and margharita. Our driver was Omar and our tour guide was Miguel. They were great. Miguel had an extensive knowledge of the history of the area and answered all the questions we had. He was very friendly and was able to provide personal stories of growing up in the area. The van was air conditioned and very comfortable.
