Go private, use Obi! - We had Obi himself. After looking around, we wanted someone local who could provide history, a tour just for us, and personal experiences. Oh, fluent Spanish, too. All tours have an element of souvenir sales, it's part of it. The best part was that we could (and did) decline a few locations. The places we did go were locally owned/made, which is the only stuff we want to buy. Obi is actually from the US, his wife (who runs the show, and well) is local. His English is excellent, he's a charmer, funny, and we learned so much, from history to local conditions. If he buys a street taco, you should too. We could have personalized more, we just needed a basic overview, both in case we never visited again or did visit again. We got that and more. It was a packed day. They offer other tours we would try if we visit again. Go private tour, use Obi!

Private and personal tour guide - This is a great tour. It is actually mislabeled as a city tour. It is a day with a private tour guide. If you are like me and want a personal experience with no other people I would completely recommend this experience.

Amazing Personal Private Tour - Obi, An combat decorated veteran is a amazing host, His personality and knowledge of the areas are excellent. You will feel like he is your personal friend by the end of the day. His personal relationship with the community allows him to take you to unique places off the beaten path. One of the best private tours, I have taken in my travels!!!

Best tour! - Obi was the absolute best tour guide. The communication before the tour was excellent and knowledge of the history and culture of the city was great. They accommodated our groups requests and made sure we were safe and well cared for. We could not have asked for a better tour experience. Thanks Obi and Arturo.

Amazing way to see Puerto Vallarta - Our day with Obi was awesome. He picked my mom and I up on time at our resort. He customized for my mom who was recently injured. He has such knowledge of Puerto Vallarta. We walked away knowing so much about the area and can’t wait to come back and explore more. He even made a pit stop at a location so I could get a gift for someone at home. We highly recommend this tour.

Amazing Tour and Excellent Guide - I strongly encourage anyone who wants to learn the history, culture, and observe artisans at work to take this tour. It was amazing. Obi picked my daughter and myself up at our resort with a cooler of drinks and we set off for the day. We toured the city, stopped at shops, did a tequila tasting and Obi helped us find souvenirs as well. We loved the personalization of the tour as well as how fun Obi made it. I guarantee you will NOT be disappointed!

Great tours of Puerta Vallerta - We had a good tour guide, Thomas and he shared many historical facts of the area. Even made a requested stop and waited patiently as we shopped. We also requested a last minute private tour the day before which was excellent. Obed was great, going to requested interests. We will use Obi Tours in the future.

Lunch was too expensive - Obi and his wife are great tour guides. They took us places we wish to see and very very gracious. The van was comfortable and air conditioned and they had water and drinks available. The lower rating is for the lunch. Th restaurant served good food but is way to expensive. The gave choice for lunch that was for 2 or 3 people that cost between $60 and $65 dollars, then you find out the drinks are not included which added another $20 to the bill. The lunch would have been OK at the price if the drinks were included. So each couple with us spent around $85 plus tip making it around $100 a couple. That is the same price we paid for the whole tour. Lunch should not cost as much as the tour. They need to find a better restaurant with lower prices or keep the price lower by including drinks.
