Touristy but worth it! - The crew was absolutely amazing, so attentive and friendly. The boat ride was fast and comfortable. Yelapa itself was nicer as you went further into the village. We had more than enough time at the waterfall, snorkeling, and for lunch. Snorkeling was easily our favorite part as the cove we went to was full of sea life including a pufferfish or two!

A lovely day of fun in the sun! - Loved the boat ride and seeing PV from the water. Had a great time snorkeling with all the tropical fish. The hike back to the waterfall was a neat way to see the village of Yelapa and some of its people. The beach was a little confusing, but we still had a great time, but the second beach with the BBQ was by far our favorite. The drinks and entertainment on the boat made the long ride quite fun. I would highly recommend this as an affordable excursion for couples or families!

Lobster seen while snorkeling! - Excellent day snorkeling. My wife saw a beautiful lobster. Yelapa waterfall is only about 500 meters up from the beach. On October 2 it had great flow. The BBQ was tasty. Thank you Vallarta Adventures!

Fantastic snorkel and beach day - We had a snorkeling trip in a secluded cove and saw tons of fish. The visibility wasn’t perfect but our guide Poncho was feeding the fish and they came all around you. We then went Majahuitas beach which was soo pretty. Then onto yelapa some walked to waterfall we stayed on the beach relaxing. There are a lot of local vendors selling various items. There was lunch on the boat and open bar. I cannot say enough about the crew that really bust themselves to serve the guests and ensure they are having a good time! They even put on a music show as we went back to port that was hilarious! Costume changes and props! Well, props to the crew they do an outstanding job! Highly recommend them tip well!!! They deserve it!

Fun day - Great tour super friendly and entertaining crew. Started at 8am and we had apples bananas and pastries handed around. The great service co to ones the entire trip with an open bar but the crew would also bring you stops. Each stop on the tour is great, lots of people at the water fall which is right in down. Only thing to note is that lunch is late at 2pm

Discrimination against Mexicans - If you're Mexican you should read this! The landscapes are beautiful, this is the only way to enjoy a bit of a beautiful private beach in PV as majahuitas, the snorkeling time is relative to me little so you must rush, if you can not swim very well they bother, the food is good but the time is only 45 minutes, you must eat fast and they do so because it is buffet, me and my companion were instructed to sit in a more secluded area and not next to the beach being that it was more beautiful, which we found strange seeing that foreigners were seated at the seaside, acts of discrimination own employees who are most likely Mexican, sadly we received that type of treatment, it is unfortunate, despite the cost is the same, there is a clear preference towards foreigners, I will clarify not all employees treated us like this, but with only a treatment of this magnitude I can say that their service is very bad that can completely ruin an experience and the worst in your own country. I recommend going only once to know our beautiful landscapes of our country Mexico and not return, and if at any time they feel discriminated by someone from the company they should report it.

Terrible do not book with them - This company is honestly a joke. First we did an ATV tour while it was nice, there are mutiple hidden costs associated with the tour including grossly overpriced taxis and food at the restaurant at the mountain top. Second tour we did was the yolapa snorkeling tour, even though this is a water based tour with swimming, they don’t provide towels?!? For the cost we paid, I am shocked that they don’t provide basic basic things. Wouldn’t recommend, the cost may seem okay (much higher then other tour company’s) there is about 50 small additional costs that you add on top of their already expensive tours. Book with this company if you want to end up spending an insane amount!!

Disappointing - The ocean was rough and the waves were big and rolling. The boat was unable to dock in Yelapa and see we did not see the waterfalls. The snorkeling was bad because the ocean visibility was murky and we were being bounced around by the waves while we were in the water. The lunch in Majahuitas was good, but the only drinks were water, pineapple juice, and beer. This trip should have been cancelled
