Come hungry! - The signature taco tour was fun and educational, and the food was incredible. We absolutely loved our guide Karla, who was patient with our 4 year old and brought such a positive energy to our experience. 10/10 would recommend!

Fun and delicious tour! - Vallarta Eats was such a fun tour! Karla, our tour guide was amazing. She was so personable and so much fun… We loved going to the local eateries and sampling Vallarta’s finest tacos! When I return home to Chicago… I will always be comparing our Mexican food to the wonderful food we sampled in Vallarta… Vallarta eats has ruined me for midwest Mexican food lol!

A fun food experience! - Great way to get to know restaurants and street vendors that you otherwise wouldn’t find or think to visit, and you learn a lot! Our guide, Alberto, was the best—ask for him!

Incredible experience tasting authentic food! - We loved this tour and our tourguide Karla was excellent. She was so knowledgeable and had a great, positive energy. She took us to spots throughout the local area of town where tourists don't typically frequent so we felt we were having really authentic food. Before each stop Karla would explain where we were going and what we would be eating. She went into a detailed explanation of how the food was made along with ingredients used. It was a perfectly balanced tour and I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to get to know authentic Mexican food! We had some fun stops along the way too!

Truly great food tour - It was great to be away from tourist areas, visiting local eateries alongside the people who work and live in Puerto Vallarta. We tasted fabulous tacos as well as chilaquiles and burritos. Karla was superb as guide. Her friendliness towards our group was matched by her camaraderie with the staffs of the eateries, which was delightful. And, she explained so much about how the food was prepared, the ingredients, as well as the different proprietors who had operated in the neighborhood for decades. A wonderful tour!
